Do you ever feel like you\u2019re not making progress with your music career?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The decision to move from making music as a hobby to doing it for a living can be a scary one. It\u2019s a confusing path to follow\u2014one that you\u2019ll likely have to carve out on your own because no one seems to know (or be willing to share) what the best course of action is. There will inevitably come a point when you feel like you\u2019re not moving anywhere at all\u2014you\u2019re just standing around, trying to think of what the next step in your music career should be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, there\u2019s those of us in between hobbyists and full-time musicians\u2014 maybe you call it a hobby for the safety net of it, but are secretly trying to figure out how to make it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wherever you are in your journey, there are things you might be doing that are preventing you from moving forward. Not all of these will resonate with everyone, but they\u2019re the most common mistakes musicians make that hold them back. If you recognize yourself in any of the scenarios below, let this be the push that you need to make a change and start making real progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. You\u2019re waiting to be “discovered”<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A few decades ago, the music industry was quite inaccessible; not only was it expensive to record and release music, but you really had to know someone who knew someone if you wanted to make any moves in your career. Back then, it made sense that your main goal would be to get discovered by someone who\u2019s already made it in the industry, so they could help you get your foot in the door. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The music industry landscape could not be more different today. Recording and releasing music is more accessible than ever before\u2014all you really need is a laptop and an internet connection. Artists are taking advantage of this, bypassing labels and releasing music independently. Not to mention, they\u2019re taking audience building into their own hands, as well. With a bit of effort on social media and some marketing skills, artists are creating fans all over the world, regardless of where they live. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this day and age, you can\u2019t afford to wait for someone to \u201cdiscover\u201d you. Although it\u2019s great to have mentors and supportive people surrounding you, no one is going to care more about your music career than you. So take matters into your own hands\u2014you already have everything you need to succeed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plus, if someone in the industry does happen to stumble upon your work, they\u2019ll be much more interested in helping you if you already have a proven track record. If you spend all your time waiting, how will they know whether or not you\u2019re a promising artist?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. You\u2019re not releasing music<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Maybe the first point doesn\u2019t apply to you\u2014you\u2019re ready to do it all yourself. But while you\u2019re not waiting to be discovered, you may be waiting for something. Are you waiting for a certain number of social media followers? Are you waiting to record the perfect song?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whatever it may be, waiting to release music can be the biggest thing holding back your career. While it\u2019s true that you shouldn\u2019t release music that\u2019s not ready, there’s a limit to this. Too many people struggle with perfectionism or the fear that no one will listen to their song, so they sit on their music for years and waste valuable time and learning opportunities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s a good rule of thumb: when you make a song that feels like your current best, release it. The keyword here is your current<\/em> best. This doesn\u2019t mean the song is perfect, as good as or better than other songs, up to your standards, or in line with what you think<\/em> you can or should be able to create. Your current best simply means it’s the best song you can come up with at this time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you release your current best work into the world, you learn about the process, you get valuable feedback, you make mistakes, and learn from them. With each new release, you get better and better. The bar for your current best gets set higher and higher. Don\u2019t deny yourself this crucial opportunity to grow and develop as an artist\u2014let the world hear your songs!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. You\u2019re not spending money<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Just because you\u2019re an independent musician, it doesn\u2019t mean you have to do everything by yourself. In fact, you shouldn\u2019t. Making music requires many different skills, and while you\u2019re probably pretty sufficient at lots of things, you\u2019re not a master at everything (not to mention, you don\u2019t have the time to do it all).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In order to maximize the quality and quantity of your music, focus on what you\u2019re good at and what you enjoy doing. Outsource everything else. You may be a great producer, but if your idea of creating cover art involves your iPhone and Microsoft PowerPoint, you\u2019ll be much better off hiring a photographer and a graphic designer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Being an independent musician means running your own business<\/a>\u2014you have to constantly think about where you can invest your money in order to maximize your profits. This might mean hiring a team to help you fill the gaps in your skillset, hiring a PR agency, paying for social media ads,<\/a> or covering any other music-related expense. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You may be thinking, \u201cBut I make music for a living, I don\u2019t have much money to spend!\u201d Well, in this particular moment, relying on music to be your only source of income might just be another thing holding back your career. Get comfortable with the idea that being a musician is expensive, especially when you\u2019re first starting out. Then, find a way to make the money you need, whether it\u2019s by getting a job, offering services to other musicians, or teaching. Many established musicians have a part-time job\u2014we all do what we have to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. You\u2019re not learning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Maybe you\u2019ve already released a few songs\u2014you\u2019ve got a proven process and you\u2019ve seen some success. This doesn\u2019t mean you should stick to this formula for the rest of your career. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to making music, there\u2019s always room to learn and grow. Seek out opportunities to shadow someone more experienced, collaborate with more established artists, attend conferences and workshops, take courses<\/a>, and watch online tutorials. There may be techniques or tools you\u2019ve never even heard of before that will take your music to the next level. And don\u2019t forget to actively listen to other people\u2019s music<\/a> so you can learn from the songs you love. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As much as you can, ask other people for feedback. Whether it\u2019s someone in the industry or just a close friend, make sure you have people in your circle who\u2019ll give you their honest opinion and offer practical advice for improvement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lastly, don\u2019t ever stop learning about the business side of music. The music industry is constantly evolving, which means that if you don\u2019t keep up, you\u2019ll soon fall behind. There are always new digital tools to use, new avenues to explore, and new marketing strategies to try. The same promotion plan<\/a> you used for your single in 2019 might not work in 2021, so take the time to educate yourself and learn to quickly adapt to the new demands of the industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. You don\u2019t manage your time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Poor time management<\/a> means one of two things: you\u2019re either not spending enough time working on your music or you\u2019re spending so much time on it that you\u2019re headed towards burning out. Neither of those are good for your music career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re finding that you\u2019re not really moving forward with your music, take an honest look at how you\u2019re spending your time. You may spend lots of time practicing your instrument or producing, but are you actively working towards specific goals? Do you have a plan in place? Are you prioritizing the right activities?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You may even have days when you feel uninspired<\/a> or feel resistance in the form of procrastination. While a few of those days are okay every once in a while, they can quickly become a habit without you even noticing. To avoid this, try tracking your time for a week and see whether the way you spend your time reflects the kind of musician you aspire to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other end of the spectrum is spending too much time working. Musicians are entrepreneurs\u2014we don\u2019t have a 9 – 5 schedule to clock in and out of (heck, many of us work on music in addition to the 9 – 5!) so it can be hard to know when to stop working. While it\u2019s great to be moving towards your goals, constantly working just isn’t sustainable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well before you start feeling the signs of burnout coming on, take a look at your schedule and make sure you\u2019re making time for the activities that help you feel your best. This looks different for everyone, but the goal is to pace yourself in a way that helps you maintain balance across all aspects of your life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. You get discouraged easily<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This is perhaps the biggest reason why music careers wilt away before they\u2019ve had a chance to bloom. The truth of the matter is, you\u2019ve got to be ready to stay in it for the long game, regardless of the highs and lows you experience in the short run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It may take years to develop a sound, find a team, build an audience, and start making a living from music. Everyone\u2019s journey and timeline looks uniquely different, so it\u2019s no use comparing your own progress with someone else\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The other thing is, everyone\u2019s idea of success is different. While one musician is striving to tour the world and sell out stadiums, your goal may be to play local shows and make a comfortable living. Figure out what success looks like for you and what you need to do to get there, and then start slowly chipping away at the plan. It may take a while, but if you enjoy the journey,<\/a> it won\u2019t matter how long it takes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
