This book was incredibly helpful and very detailed. If you need to promote yourself online, even if you're not a musician, check this one out.

This a good read. But it is already outdated a little bit, as it was written in 2013. That's why I rated it four stars.
Aside of that, this is an interesting read with a lot of useful information that can be used not only in music media.

[Jānis Eglītis · Rating 3 out of 5]

3 because it is outdated. Gives a some good ideas though. Talking about soc. media almost 3 years is a long time.

Read this for a marketing course at uni. It's a bit outdated now unfortunately but still a good read!
