Case Study: The Aury Moore Band Throws A CD Release Party
So a concert or a party is supposed to cost money to put on right? Yes, it will cost you a sizeable amount of cash if you do not already have something worked out with the venue who is supposed to host you. Fortunately for many artists, knowing a friend who has a nice venue like a bar or club can work out for both parties. The owners will benefit no matter what since there are going to be drinks served and people to be placated. For the artist, they NEED a house or place to have a concert. There needs to be access to gear, equipment, lighting, and power. A small investment should only set you back a few thousand dollars at a time if you know what you are doing. Pre-selling tickets is a good way to guarantee funding for your concert, since the money is given up front regardless if they actually attend a concert. Once you have people inside, it shouldn’t be hard to sell tickets at the door for a higher cost. Believe it or not, a pre-release party can actually make you a great deal of money, sometimes around 10 times the amount it cost to put it on in the first place. http://www.hypebot.com/hypebot/2013/08/case-study-the-aury-moore-band-throws-a-cd-release-party-.html
