IFH 294: All Filmmakers are Marketers – Branding, Marketing & Social Media

All Filmmakers are Marketers – Branding, Marketing & Social Media
Today I’m talking about marketing! Yup, marketing. If you, as indie filmmakers, do not understand branding, marketing, and social media YOU WILL NOT MAKE IT IN THE BUSINESS. I really want to get through to you guys. I’ve been consulting more and more filmmakers lately and I see there is a MAJOR disconnect between filmmakers and understanding the basics of branding (whether personal, company or project), marketing, and social media.
In this episode I’ll be discussing:
- Tribe or Audience Building
- Brand Marketing vs. Directing Marketing
- Understanding your smallest viable audience
- Brand Building
- Building Your Personal Brand
- Discovering how you can love the GRIND or your journey
- Choosing platforms to build your brand
- Content creation
Also below are six books that will help you along your path to understanding these basic concepts. I truly hope that you find value in this episode. The understanding, at a basic level, of branding, marketing, and social media is not a luxury but a necessity in today’s and tomorrow’s world. Don’t get left behind. I want every single #IFHTribe member to make there dream come true, to build a better life for themselves and to love their own journey towards their goals.
Warning: this episode might make you think about stuff so beware! Enjoy and keep on hustling.
