TIP TUESDAY: Make Yourself Easy to Find
If someone Googled you right now, would they know they found the right artist or brand?

Make yourself easy to find online. Some ways to do this:

* Use the same artist or brand name, handle, and profile photo everywhere. If it's taken in one of those places, try and do as small of a tweak as possible.
* Get rid of old or broken links.
* Pin your newest release, next show, or best video.
* Put a real contact email in your bio. “DM me” is not a booking plan.
* Give people one clear next step: listen, buy, book, or sign up.

Bonus tip: Google yourself like a stranger would. What shows up first? Is it you?
You don’t need a complete rebrand. Sometimes a few small cleanups make a big difference.

What’s one thing you could fix on your profiles today? If you need a little direction, get in touch and let's dive in! Contact info is in the bio or email dcutler AT danicutler DOT com!

BIG NEWS‼️We have received a $5000 grant from the @masscultural for next year's festival! This comes from Creative Experiences Grants and not from the local cultural council.

SCENE MOM SAYS:  It's episode 107! scenemomsays.com or the link in the bio!
74%.
That's the percentage of independent artists surveyed in Ditto Music's 2026 Independent Music Report who said they earned less than $1,000 from music over the past year.

And that number deserves a conversation. 

On this week's Scene Mom Says, we're talking about the economics of being an independent musician, streaming, AI, Spotify's recent outage, and the question of whether all this technology is actually making it easier for artists to make a living.
Plus music history, local events, and a playlist full of independent artists you should be listening to. Links to both the segments-only and the full radio show at scenemomsays.com!

SCENE MOM SAYS: A Spotify outage is annoying for listeners.
But for independent artists, it highlights just how dependent the modern music business has become on a handful of platforms.
