I just want the money, would this work?

[fame]

I have noticed social media influencers who bought mixes and ghost produced tracks.

Since they already have a big social media audience, they find clubs to play in, and they just hit the "Play" button and pretend to do something while jumping and saying stuff on the mic.

Build audience > buy ghost produced mixes > leverage your following to get gig > hit play button > pretend to do stuff > get paid.

Seems to me a neat business strategy.

Am I missing any steps in this strategy or I nailed it?

If I were an influencer and I wanted to recreate the same exact strategy, would I need some other steps in the middle that I haven't noticed?

Please show me the bottlenecks in this business strategy, thank you!

Hi, you're on a forum that has no tutorials on how to be a fake.

Seems to me a neat business strategy.

Good luck.

I believe what he is referring to is known as "the general strategy of the commercial music industry" and has been around for a very long time.

Oh and there's been no money at the front end of music for a while now as well, so good luck with that!
As for social media influencers "making bank"...I often don't find the figures add up in the long term.

Maybe just stick with art, talent and fun ... or is that me just being old fashioned...
