How Independent Artists Actually Grow online in 2026

I’m Tyler — a music producer who’s helped hundreds of artists explode their brands to enthusiastic audiences and craft epic releases using systems + strategies that deliver.

PROBLEM

Are you Running Into Any of these as a music Creator?

Most independent artists don't lack talent - they lack direction, strategy, and momentum.

  • Hobbyist Branding: A poorly designed brand can hurt your credibility. Our expert brand designers will help you create a strong, cohesive visual identity that reflects your musicial character.

  • Good Music, Low Reach: We all know how instrumental *see what I did there?* social media is for your career. Most artists start with a small following of friends and family but that confuses the algorithm throttling you

  • Stalled Growth on Socials: You're probably not shadow-banned. Instagram just doesn't have enough information about your ideal listener and that's where we come in. We train the algorithm to push your content around the clock.

  • No Google Presence: If people can't find you on search engines, you don't exist. Labels, venues, and potential collaborators need to be able to see your story on search engines.

THE SOLUTION

The Framework We Use With Artists To Build Real Momentum

Instead of random tactics, this is a simple, repeatable system that helps artists build an momentum across content, releases, and visibility — without selling out or burning out

Brand Identity

Who is Tyler August?

Music Producer, Army Veteran &

Music Marketing Company Founder

I've been in your shoes and I will save you YEARS of struggle trying to grow online.

I didn’t come up with a safety net. I came up making music, trying to break through, and learning the hard way how brutal the industry can be when talent isn’t paired with strategy.

After serving in the Army, I came back with a different mindset — discipline, systems, and a refusal to waste time chasing distractions. I went behind the scenes, learned marketing, branding, and distribution, and built the exact frameworks for massive growth that I wish I had when I was just a new artist trying to get heard.

The music industry is all about getting into the right rooms. My social media presence has unlocked countless doors and put me in rooms I never would've imagined.

How I Help Artists Win

1. Build Real Momentum

We start with targeted Instagram growth, positioning, and visual identity — so when people discover you, they immediately understand who you are and why you matter. No fake followers. No vanity plays. Just the right audience, consistently.

2. Establish Credibility and Authority

Music is perception. Can't get around it.
I help artists build legitimacy through press, strategic releases, and search presence so opportunities start coming to you, not the other way around.

3. Turn Attention Into Opportunity

Once momentum is real, we engineer releases and campaigns that actually compound. Each drop builds audience, leverage, and long term value.

3. World Class Partnerships

We have partnerships and leverage all across the music and digital entertainment industries. The top artists on our roster have access to high-level publishing, distribution, and catalog investment opportunities. We help get you to the position where these opportunities make sense.
