- ivankirigin 12y agoLots of music startups have to deal with headaches around old world music industry types. How did you deal with that?
- oo7jeep 12y ago1. Show them technology they can't (or haven't made themselves) 2. Build a team that has a history of making the industry money - my co-founder was the first person to sell rock shirts in mass retail (read: $$$) 3. Make something artists want.
- mjwhansen 12y agoI've heard that bands get a higher profit margin from merch than their actual music. Any truth to that? (I ask because, if true, you're doing a big favor to bands!)
- Jgrubb 12y agoThis is actually how many bands stay in business. So yes, buying a t shirt at the show is the best way to help them out.
