Indie Music: Beware of the Money Mongers
As stated above, there are people out there who will take all your money and bring you zilch results. Once they have paid their rent they are out looking for the next person to screw. Compare prices AND services. Ask them what was the last project they worked and CHECK IT OUT. Again, If it was something from more than 2 years ago… move on.
A great promoter is CONSTANTLY working on NEW projects. That’s not to say some great promoters have not worked in a few years but I have never seen an industry that is more out-of-sight-out-of-mind. If you are not working, you are forgotten about in less than a week. You don’t have time to weight the pros and cons of someone who was working and is working. I would always go for the one who IS working.
