2. THE INDUSTRY IS EVOLVING
TurnUp the Creativity
An artist’s bread and butter has typically been in
concert ticket sales as labels have traditionally
reaped the disproportionate benefit of music sales.
The internet, social media marketing and online
music communities have shifted consumer
preferences taking a major bite out of music sales,
but opening a whole world of possibilities for
artists (both with label representation and without)
to generate revenue.
Beyoncé, a TurnUp Group artist, broke iTunes
records with her secret, visual album release in
December 2013 selling 617,000 downloads in three
days.
Her out-of-the-box thinking changed the game and
proved the rules of the industry no longer apply.
3. WHO WE ARE
In an industry where the rulebook has been thrown out the
window, it pays to have a firm experienced in blazing new trails.
