Financing Your Music Career without a Record Label w Wendy Day

[@EmpoweredIndieArtists]

Ok, how am I just learning about this amazing woman?!?!? As a 51 year old music producer (female, which makes up only about 3% of music producers) I resonate with everything she's passionate about. I love educating artists about the business side as well as being a creative partner with artists. I'm a Wendy Day fan!!

[@Antoinethecool]

You’re going to love her more when you learn about her work/bond with popular musicians throughout time. Cash money ect

[@prodbydramatic]

She's the coolest. And her drive is amazing plus the knowledge she gives out...but I have been looking for your page I came across a while back and I like the way you teach so I thank you as well for sharing and your time. :)

[@EmpoweredIndieArtists]

@@prodbydramatic You're welcome!!

[@jballer10000]

She actually gave Eminem the spot in the rap Olympics which led to Dre finding him and getting his demo tape.

[@acharich]

Been following her for years, she's great.. 💎

[@BonafideDG]

Advice #1: borrow around 150.000$ at the lowest interest rate/cost possible Advice #2: Spend that money on marketing(see advice #4) Advice #3: There are more investors than there are record labels. Advice #4: put out a lot of songs and see which ones stand out and attract the most attention and put the marketing money behind those songs.

[@beunmin6]

I screenshot this for future purposes 😊😂

[@BonafideDG]

@@beunmin6 i did the same thing after reading yo comment haha

[@christmauricemouvenguiibou6623]

I can listen to her for days. The knowledge coming from her is priceless.

[@illeybishop]

I've beenna fan of her since meeting her in Orlando back in '14. She did a panel explaining how to succeed as an independent artist, and I was hooked. Amazing woman with such deep knowledge.

[@jerryimpini]

I basically put into practice and made it mandatory for myself to subscribe to any and every youtube channel Wendy Day is interviewed on. She is a Godsend and is so well spoken that I was already captivated by her well before I learned about her amazing accomplishments. What an awesome human being!! Wendy is the coolest chic on the planet!!! : )))

[@El_Nyambo]

Well Said 🥋

[@AJCrew]

Wendy Day is a legend! Glad she's a guest on the show.

[@Mariami]

Good lord gem after gem! People like this need to be championed, so grateful for this wisdom and these insights 🙏 Thank you guys for bringing content like this to the forefront.

[@3ilkush]

Great interview guys. Loved the knowledge from Wendy and i gotta say the interviewer is one of the best… asked the right questions and absorbed the answers to form even better ones! Awesome work guys.

[@philjenius]

Wendy is the GOAT! I can't wait till I meet her once I've made it successfully as an indie artist. So grateful! I needed this information tonight!

[@xdiamondxkidx]

Does anyone have the link to the Circa video they were talking about? Nothing in the description…

[@AdeleMcAlear]

I love Wendy Day! She's amazing.

[@ondoh]

She is

[@Dracaveli]

"goodness in the industry"..i loved that part

[@MaxiZee]

yo you should let her make a couple indiepro trainings. how to find funding, how to stick to your lane as an artist, finding and mainting your image. all of these things. she would give you a killer course hahah

[@Nymphya]

Love this idea

[@BrigetBoyle]

Thank you for sharing this. It is something that I think about often and am really grateful for this resource!

[@sergioramos3437]

Love to see you guys get together and do another episode with the GOAT!

[@devinTay]

Wendy, you are NOT OLD!!! 😂😂❤ You’re young at heart, spirit, AND influence! I’ve already learned SO MUCH from you as an artist, and as I’m about to release these new upcoming hits, (I know they’re hits, not just being boastful), and I KNOW you are already my favorite! Thank for learning all of this stuff over those years so we can learn it before learning the harder way :) Thank you Wendy! I trust I get to work with you soon one of these days! ❤

[@PatrickJamesClark]

Really great conversation. I love the section about finding funding and how the music industry is "emotionally based"

[@SoniSonia]

I LOVE HER VIBE, thanks for this video

[@MOJIMusicandRecordingLLC]

Thanks!

[@CalvinRossWorld]

Been binge watching you and Wendy for the past few weeks. Where is the video she was referring to

[@TSA.Network]

This is exactly what we try to teach our clients! Great Content

[@StashGuapo]

Thank you guys, been speaking to labels the past 3 months and speaking to my first investor tomorrow!

[@designjourneyofficial]

This is such an amazing interview. Thanks for putting this on! WOW, I am so inspired!

[@emeraldsunmusic]

Never get bored of Wendy

[@Nymphya]

OK THIS is superb. So many musicians do not even think in these terms.

[@kalegawd]

So many great ideas from just this hour conversation that are ACTIONABLE. Thanks guy!

[@alaninightingale]

We must protect this angel by all means from the record labels.

[@KenjiStandlee]

This is such an incredible resource! Thank you for working to put this together!

[@mattxpresents]

OK. I am ready to give Wendy all the $. GREAT Episode!

[@emeraldsunmusic]

😂😂 sign me up

[@Ali3Peat]

Wendy Day is a legend in the game.

[@gimmicklessentertainment]

I went to an event where she spoke cause DJ Pain1 convinced her to last year! Excellent information! You can tell she really cares & is just a great person.

[@nicoamicone]

What a piece of a video! Thank you so much for making it possible for us to absorb all this valuable knowledge ❤

[@bigkevgx]

Wendy is the best🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

[@Jonesborosongs]

Advice worth its weight in gold!

[@simplyelwin]

Thanks guys!

[@Mariami]

It’s like all the gaps that have ever existed are bridged here for indie artists.

[@maxboostandthepowerups]

I know that my city has some mini grants for artists to apply for to make records or go on tour. My city (Memphis, TN) is completely saturated with musicians, seems like it would be hard to hit up some company for money as an investment, but you know, very few of the other artists I know here are doing the kind of ecommerce stuff Indepreneur teaches, so maybe its worth a shot!

[@AustinSkysLive]

Yeah a business plan is very important, and being very tactful with the funding is important i believe. Thanks a lot for another insightful video!

[@vinniejinn4149]

Awesome! :) Super inspiring episode. Wendy is a star! Thanks for sharing this.

[@JonasSnitt]

Really good interview, never heard a deep dive into this specific subject! 🎶

[@CutgoodmusicEnt]

Wendy Day is the Greatest 😊

[@therealGP]

at around 50:47 Wendy asks him to put a link to "Circa's video" ?? But when I click on the shownotes link it takes me to a page 'Ruh-Roh That page doesn't exist" . Can somebody / anybody please let me know who/what she is talking about ? Who is Circa? or is it Cirque? etc .. and does anyone have that link pls and thanks??

[@Lee-vb4vh]

[@cosmiconthebeat]

[@cosmiconthebeat]

[@SonnyPapaya]

Can I talk to Wendy? Prophetic business to build

[@Tomisloove]

Mindset is everything. But knowing what I know, I'll probably never talk to a label... like, ever...

[@methodforce7315]

Im 25. No music out. Im i too old to start a music career in rap from the scratch?

[@chuckycheese1]

HIP HOPS FAIRY GODMOTHER 🧚‍♀️

[@antdominin]

I think it's pretty funny if you are real hip-hop then you would have known who she was ages ago, she is mentioned in rap songs all throughout the history of hip-hop

[@brooklynzee4492]

that comb over is nasty work

[@charlesuniverse]

Not the word "financing" triggering the AI bots in the comments 😂

[@juniordunkley2751]

Wendy who? I just need a deal man

[@Genolexis]

Wendy is the mofo deal! Been watching her over 15 years

[@Empoweredwoman1234]

Taylor Swift got totally screwed by her record company after so many years of success. Be careful before signing a record deal. If it can happen to a superstar it can happen to anyone.

[@eoieoieo]

The AI eyes are really weird

[@eoieoieo]

Cant watch the video cuz bro is staring into my soul

[@derrickmills687]

wendy broke poor rightious teachers from my city Trenton NJ
