Podcasts about fan engagement

Making a Scene Presents - Fan Loyalty Is Becoming The New Currency of the Music Industry The Future of the Music Business Will Not Be Built on Likes For years, independent artists were told to chase attention as if attention alone was a business plan. Get more followers, get more likes, get more views, get more streams, post more videos, feed the machine, stay visible, and hope the algorithm decides to smile on you for a few minutes. That became the daily routine for thousands of artists who were already writing songs, recording music, booking shows, selling merch, and trying to keep their creative lives alive. http://www.makingascene.org

Cardano Foundation has partnered with the Brazilian Olympic Committee on a three-year roadmap focused on sports innovation, and this episode breaks down why that matters beyond the headline. Peter walks through the practical use cases being discussed, including digital identity, certification, fan engagement, equipment tracking, and on-chain governance.Rather than treating this as vague adoption theatre, the episode looks at where blockchain may genuinely fit within sporting institutions, especially when legacy systems are fragmented, paper-based, or difficult to audit. It is an early-stage pilot, but it offers a concrete example of how public blockchain infrastructure could be tested in a real-world national organisation.Key Takeaways:- The partnership is framed as a three-year roadmap between Cardano Foundation and the Brazilian Olympic Committee, not a one-off marketing announcement.- The four main areas discussed are identity and certification, fan engagement, equipment tracking, and on-chain governance.- Digital identity is one of the clearest use cases because therapists, facilitators, and staff could carry portable verified credentials across venues and events.- NFT-based fan engagement could enable ticketing, access control, collectibles, and direct on-chain rewards without relying on traditional account systems.- Supply-chain style tracking for sporting equipment could improve visibility, reduce loss, and make logistics easier across multiple locations.- The governance angle is still early, but transparent voting and funding decisions are a natural area for blockchain experimentation inside sporting bodies.- Peter's broader view is that blockchain is often easiest to introduce where processes are still inefficient or only partly digitised.Links & References:- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/FI3qpg- https://link.learncardano.io/O4QES6- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/hA8ejv- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/cHnUwyWebsite: https://link.learncardano.io/bQ68RcX/Twitter: https://link.learncardano.io/3a1QtvDisclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only.

Making a Scene Presents - The Collapse of Gatekeepers: What Happens When Artists Own Everything The Old Doors Are Still Standing, But the Locks Are Breaking For most of the modern music business, artists were trained to stand in line. Stand in line for the label. Stand in line for the radio programmer. Stand in line for the booking agent. Stand in line for the publicist. Stand in line for the playlist editor. Stand in line for the platform algorithm. Stand in line, wait your turn, be grateful, and maybe somebody with a desk, a budget, and a parking spot near the front of the building would decide your music was worth putting in front of people. That was the deal. The artist made the music. The gatekeeper owned the road. http://www.makingascene.org

Making a Scene Presents - The Attention Harvest: Using AI to Capture Fans Before the Algorithm Takes Them Away Most Artists Celebrate Views. Smart Artists Capture Relationships. There is a moment that happens every day in the life of an independent artist. A song clip starts moving. A short video gets more views than usual. A live performance reel catches fire. A comment section wakes up. A stranger writes, “Where can I hear more?” Another one says, “Come to my city.” Somebody shares the post. Somebody else saves it. The artist sees the number climb and feels that little rush we all understand. The views are going up. The algorithm is smiling. For a few hours, it feels like the door finally cracked open. Then the feed moves on. http://www.makingascene.org

independent musicians must shift their focus from accumulating social media followers to cultivating a direct ownership economy. The author contends that high visibility on digital platforms is often a vanity metric that fails to translate into financial stability because artists do not own their fan data. To achieve true sustainability, creators should treat social media as a preliminary funnel designed to move audiences toward owned channels like email lists, SMS, and personal websites. By prioritizing direct-to-fan relationships over algorithmic reach, artists can transform passive listeners into a reliable customer base. Ultimately, the source advocates for a structural business shift where participation and participation-tracking tools, such as fan passports, replace the pursuit of viral fame. http://www.makingascene.org

In an era dominated by high-definition home entertainment and endless digital distractions, what does it take to convince a fan that a live, in-person experience is not just worth their time and money, but is something they can't afford to miss?Agility requires not just having a plan, but building a system to listen and respond to your audience in real time. It's about turning feedback from a retrospective report into an in-the-moment action plan.Following the recent Qualtrics X4 Summit in Seattle, we're going to talk about what it takes to engineer a world-class fan experience. We'll explore how a legacy brand moves beyond the traditional event model to create personalized, memorable moments, and how they use real-time data not just to measure satisfaction, but to proactively shape the fan journey from the moment someone buys a ticket to long after they've left the course.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Zach Carlson, Director of Fan Engagement at PGA TOUR.

a strategic manual for independent musicians to reclaim control over their audience relationships by moving away from platform-dependent social media. It argues that artists should build owned community forums using tools like WordPress, BuddyPress, and bbPress to escape restrictive algorithms and data silos. By establishing a central "digital house," creators can integrate direct-to-fan commerce, email newsletters, and membership tiers into a unified ecosystem. The guide provides practical steps for setting up these social layers, emphasizing the importance of data ownership and authentic fan engagement. Ultimately, it frames self-hosted infrastructure as the key to moving beyond viral trends and building a sustainable, middle-class music career. http://www.makingascene.org

Making a Scene Presents - The Live Show Is Not Just a Night Out. It Is the Front Door to Your Whole Music Business. For too long, indie artists have been taught to think of the live show as a single transaction. A fan buys a ticket. The artist plays the set. Maybe somebody buys a shirt. Everybody goes home. The venue sweeps the floor, the bartender counts the drawer, the band loads out, and the whole night disappears into the fog of tired backs, ringing ears, and gas station coffee. That is the old way. The new way is different. The live show is not just a night out. It is not just a gig. It is not just a chance to play loud, sell a few shirts, and hope somebody remembers your name next week. The live show is the most powerful conversion point an independent artist has. It is the one place where attention, emotion, money, identity, and community all show up in the same room at the same time. That is rare. That is valuable. That is not something you hand over to Spotify, Instagram, TikTok, Ticketmaster, or some rented platform that lets you borrow your own audience in exchange for feeding its machine. A live show is where a casual listener becomes a real fan. It is where a name on a poster becomes a face, a voice, a laugh, a handshake, a story, a memory. It is where your music stops being content and becomes an experience. And if you build the right system around that experience, the show does not end when the last cymbal fades. It keeps working. It keeps earning. It keeps bringing people into your world. That is the real game. http://www.makingascene.org

When it comes to the in-stadium experience for the New England Patriots, Abbey Thistle is the quarterback. She calls the plays and puts people in a spot to succeed.

Mikey, Tom, and Justin talk music, hockey, and anything else that gets in their way. Tom and Mikey are lifelong friends that grew up on Long Island during the glory days of alternative music where our local bands were As Tall As Lions, Brand New, Taking Back Sunday, Bayside, The Sleeping, Envy on the Coast, you get the point. We spent many nights together at The Downtown, catching any pop-punk, indie, hardcore, or emo band that came through. This was not a phase, Mom! Fast forward 20 years and we are still just as passionate about the scene as we were during our girl jeans and youth XL band tees days. Tom and Mikey are diehard New York Islanders fans, but Justin (Bolts fan) likes to remind us that we are #notanislespodcast. As we got older we realized we can like more than one thing and running beside our love for music has always been our love for hockey. We have realized we are not alone in this thinking, actually there are many of us that love these two things! This podcast explores just how connected they are!NEW EPISODE EVERY TUESDAY!

Welcome back to Bringin' It Backwards, the podcast where rising and legendary artists share their real stories and spill the secrets behind their journeys to stardom. In this episode, Adam welcomes back singer-songwriter Cate Turner for an unprecedented fourth appearance—making her the reigning record holder for most visits to the show! Cate first joined us in 2021, and since then, her story has been anything but stagnant. We pick right up where we left off, diving into the whirlwind of the last few years: the release of her two-part EP, the deeply personal aftermath of losing her father, her transition from a major label to full independence, and how all of that shaped her music and identity as an artist. With Cate's signature honesty and humor, she talks about the reality of leaving Atlantic Records—what it means to no longer have the safety net (and, yes, the “Amex-wielding father” label experience), and the freeing but terrifying process of steering her own ship. Cate opens up about finding her confidence as an independent artist, the strategy behind splitting her album into two EPs, and the challenges of writing and releasing music after such a loss. We get into the nitty gritty—how she decided which songs went where, the vulnerable themes in tracks like “I Might,” and why fan connection at live shows means more than any streaming statistic. Cate also shares her no-nonsense advice for aspiring artists: get out of your own head and trust yourself, even when everything feels uncertain. If you're an independent musician, someone who's gone through loss, or just a fan of Cate's refreshingly self-aware songwriting, you won't want to miss this conversation. So, tune in, hear Cate drop some real talk, and let her story inspire your own journey.
