In the IndiePRO Community, we separate our community members into tiers based on where they are in their career so that we can give them a customized game plan for how to reach the next level...

This week, our IndieX Specialist and brass player for Indie Folk band The 502s, Joe Capati, delivers a customized roadmap for artists in the Grassroots 1 tier…

Grassroots 1 artists are starting from the very beginning - artists in this tier have yet to release their first song to the public and are hoping to do so in the most advantageous way possible...In this stage, artists can make a lot of time-wasting mistakes and sometimes form counterproductive habits and expectations - so it’s important they get set off on the right foot!
