How the music industry has it right
How to maximize demand when you only control offer? This is the main challenge of almost all businesses. The music industry is no exception. Let’s think about how they got into it. Far from me to make a full analysis of the music business world, something I can feel is that the startup model can apply to music and in fact, I’m wondering who came first. As we already said previously, our rational side is easily paused by our emotional inner voice. This is something the music industry knows for quite a long time. Double that with our appetite for social belonging where showing the world how happy we are about something trending makes us feel part of the tribe. But this tribe, even if it is a placebo or an artificial tribe still has its effect and the music investors got it. Now remains a good recipe, turn a band into a consumption product creating a trending pre-launch and extracting all you can from that moment, make sure you add enough sweetness trigger the sexual attraction effect amongst the fan and the moment your analytics shows the slightest sign of slowing down, replace it by something new.
