URM Podcast EP13 | Standing Out From The Crowd w Finn Mckenty

Finn Mckenty (CreativeLIVE, The Punk Rock MBA) joins us to discuss the inner workings of songwriting, creation of a unique point of view and effective marketing for bands and producers in the fast-paced, highly competitive creative world of today.

However, most think that self promotion equals salsey spamming and that couldn’t be further from the truth. Hit play to find out the right way to promote yourself.

“At the end of the day there are no secrets, just attention to detail and a lot of hard work. That’s the difference between the pros and the beginners.” – Finn McKenty
