EP105: Regarding the Music Marketing Space with Rick Barker

At Indepreneur, we spend every moment of every work day working on the cutting edge of music marketing. But, as much as we strive, there's only so much that we can cover. That's why we always keep an eye on what other professionals in the music space are up to. One such professional is Rick Barker, marketer, entrepreneur, author, and former manager to pop superstar Taylor Swift...

In this episode, Circa interviews Rick Barker on a wide range of topics - from working with big labels to managing independent artists. Being two people who appreciate divergent opinions and debate, Circa and Rick also have a great conversation on the subject of price in the music marketing space. Circa also takes some time to marvel in the sheer amount of top-level marketing training Rick has undergone over the last 5 years.
