Selling direct-to-fan and making money even when you're an emerging artist: Mag Rodriguez of D2C platform Even talks about the future of artist commerce
Description
Ep. 161: Direct to Consumer is a model that most artists, of all sizes, are now prioritising. But which type of artist does this approach work – and not work – for? Mag Rodriguez, CEO/founder of D2C platform Even – which has the tagline "Buy The Art From The Artist" – talks to Music Ally's Editor Joe Sparrow about how artists can use this business model to generate money.
He says that artists can make more money from a new release this way than on a streaming platform, sometimes even before that release reaches the DSP.
Joe and Mag also talk about artists using fan data, how emerging artists with small fanbases can make D2C work, and how to treat superfans in a way that feels fair, while maximising income for artists and the experience for fans?
