I've been writing a lot about Taylor Swift lately, and for a good reason, she keeps doing big things. From releasing her album to having an app that follows her music video.
This pop star is full of power moves, not only is she now on the cover of Time Magazine, but she was also on their list of 100 influential people in the world.
Many may not respect her music, for one reason or another, but it is hard to say that Taylor Swift is not a great business person. Selling more albums than any other artist in the music industry this year, even when music sales in the whole industry are not doing well. Taylor even managed to out sell her past albums. Taylor and her team know where to market, know who their target market is, and how to keep them coming back. It is not enough to just sell your music, there is so much more than that, branding yourself, or your band is a big factor.
For starting musicians to "make it big" they need to realize that there is more to music than just art.
Musicians are a business, and Taylor Swift understands that.
