If you’re a modern-day musician, you can’t stick to the old ways of selling your music. CDs are a must, for sure, because it’s still the cheapest tangible thing you can sell during tours but you should sell your music in bazillion other ways. Now that we’re in 2016, here are some of the hottest marketing and distribution trends you must try in order to\u00a0stand out and sell more.<\/p>\n

Microsites are a great way to inform consumers about your latest album or your concert.\u00a0Microsites can also hold exclusive content, much likeRihanna<\/strong>‘s site, which gives fans the opporunity to explore rooms for photo and video content, as well as clues relating to the release of her upcoming album\u00a0ANTI<\/em>.<\/p>\n
