BLOG- Indie marketing techniques





The principle of Indie marketing is to promote/sponsor your own independent project, whether it was a game, a film, or even a website you have made, or any project for that fact. 

There are a big number of websites on the Internet that can market your project and help you develop marketing of your project further, such as IndieMarketing.  

This website will help your project (whatever it may be) in order for it to get of the ground and to have a good jump-start, to be successful and known. 

No project ever got marketed with out some Benjamin’s (money), that’s why websites like indiegogo, gofundme, fundanything, exists to help fund your project. 

A lot of us have different definitions of marketing; some could go with the old school marketing, and some of us could go with the new school marketing. 

Old school marketing consists of, word of mouth, radio, personal connections, face time (not the apple app) and emails. 

As much as these methods work in today’s world, they are considered primitive in the age of the Internet and information, but they do work because they consist of personal involvement, reaching out to the masses, and face-to-face connection rather than screen-to-screen connection. 

New school marketing consist of, social media (any platform could be helpful in marketing), electronic word of mouth, attending events, Also as I mentioned before, marketing websites, and crowdfunding websites. 

These new school techniques will help get the project of the ground and to a good start, because in social media nowadays we can market almost any thing, however electronic word of mouth will be, you or any other social media user, telling their friends by commenting or a message throw Facebook for example. 

When attending events you can advertise for your project to many amounts of people from different sectors.

4 tips for indie marketing your project:

1.   Hire a graphic designer
When your doing your project it will contain design in it no matter how simple or complicate the project is, this will attract potential customers or users to it, and it will make it look good.

2.   Open a social media page for the project.
Opening a social media account for the project that you are doing (Facebook, YouTube, instagram etc.…) will help you gain more exposure and audience wanting to know more about it, and maybe someone would to invest in it.

3.   Stay persistent and consistent.
It can be really easy to get caught up with other ideas and get distracted by the flash (life), when you have an idea for a project stick with it, and develop it and work on it and stay on it, until it is a successes and it retched your goal (whatever it may be)

4.   Shoot a video for it and/or take pictures.
People always like to see visuals. When your announcing the project show videos and pictures of it, with a small description under it, people are lazy and wont read.

BLOG39-Inner conflicts

  Inner conflicts   I know that feeling when I get the night flow It's like the right demons’ crawls and show Inside my mind, my thoughts make me small All my worries and fears, they start to brawl   Late at night, my mind starts to race The right spirit sneaks, and takes its place Inside my head, I face my thoughts My worries and fears, they stand so tall   And I can't help but wonder, is this all? Is there more to life than this constant war? I try to hold onto my beliefs, but they start to fall And I'm left feeling like I'm not worth it at all   I go to war with my peace and it's a battle I can't cease My own worst enemy is me against me that I can’t see Sometimes I feel like I'm drowning in the sea And I am collapsing from the inside with nowhere to flee   the only way out is to pour a drink, but that's more deceit I'm defeated, feeling like I'm just a piece of meat I drink till I am dead then the...

BLOG-45 HOPE

  HOPE Dear hope, our love was once alive Every moment with you made my heart thrive From the streets to your place, we strolled Fireworks & music it is a story to be told   Hand in hand, time stood still Kisses and love, a magical thrill I cherished every moment, every beat Dreaming of you, making my life complete   But our definitions of love did not align I sought a life partner, you wanted to dine On financial stability, a different kind of affection Leaving me with questions and in different directions   I apologize for the hurtful words I said They were misplaced, causing tears to shed I dreamt of marriage, after seven months that was true But circumstances intervened and it couldn't come through   I'm sorry for the times I neglected your needs Leaving you feeling alone, lost like a seed Family comes first, my unwavering creed But I wish you happiness and I hope you succeed   I wanted to be a cha...
