Composed: Scientific Wellness, Purpose & Direction for Those in the New Music Industry

A small, dedicated crowd of true fans versus the constant chase for new listeners: where should artists actually be spending their energy? Today, we dive into what it really takes to turn casual streams into genuine fans, tackling listener questions on niching down without losing your audience, what "providing value" actually means for a musician (without feeling like an influencer), and how to balance nurturing your Cult listeners with growing your reach. We also talk about why losing followers can be a sign of progress, which is something you won't want to miss.
