TODAY'S GUEST
My guest today is Gernot Müller, who brings a full decade of experience to the table at Voltage Circus. In fact, the company is his creation, stemming from the experience he received working for Armada Music and wanting to create his own music marketing agency with a brand new direction.
At the beginning of his career, Gernot was a DJ, so he understands the struggles and needs of up-and-coming artists better than anyone. This allows him to combine his own experience and knowledge with his company’s marketing strategies. He spent 6 years working for DanceTelevision (formerly known as DanceTrippin TV), of which he is now a shareholder. And finally, he made his way to Armada Music where he was responsible for online marketing.
During these 10 years working in the music industry, he learned everything he could about marketing for musical talent as well as consulting with international DJs. This passion and drive led him to launch Voltage Circus in 2019.
EPISODE SUMMARY
At the beginning of the episode, Gernot shares his story of how he started Voltage Circus, a music marketing and management agency.
We then dive into discussing the concept of the fan conversion funnel AKA how to turn followers into superfans. Gernot also shares the secret of making it as an artist with only 1000 true fans and why you don’t need a huge number of followers to do so.
Later on, we talk about what makes people follow you in the age of social media. Is it about your music? Your personality? Or something else?
Closer to the end, Gernot shares some tangible data about how much time you actually need to invest in your music project in order to break through and make a transition from your 9-5 job to becoming a professional DJ and artist.
And so much more...
