I’ll be visiting our capital to run a workshop for MusicACT aimed at music industry professionals keen to implement digital marketing for the first time.

Another year, another BIGSOUND, another post-BIGSOUND cold ? Here’s my annual list of highlights and discoveries in Brisbane with my Bolster fam.

I covered off the A-Z of new music marketing at CHANGES. Here’s a deeper breakdown of 3 of my favourite things we covered.

I was fortunate enough to speak at EMC Connect’s panel on The Growth Guides: Prioritising Community panel. We discussed how to build strong online and offline music communities, and what is key for generating support, real engagement and fandom (not just stats).

See you soon, Adelaide! I’ll be attending the AIR Awards, and also speaking on Tech Health for Indie-Con 2019.

Facebook’s highly anticipated and closely watched F8 conference rolled around again this week, and it did not disappoint. Most of the updates were heavily focused around its hero products: Stories, Messenger and Groups. Here’s what I thought.

I’ll be hosting a Bolster digital masterclass for the music industry, as part of the VMDO’s Experts In Residence program!

The #SITG2019 campaign marks my fifth year of working on Splendour In The Grass via Bolster, and this year was pretty epic. Not only did we sell out the festival at a record capacity, but this time round Bolster’s Creative team also got involved.

February. It’s that time of the year: people forget their NY’s resolutions, everyone’s back in the swing of things and data reports from the past 12 months start sliding into my inbox. Here are some of my top 2018 report picks.

I was honoured to take part in The Push’s Music Industry Pathways Program for 2018 as a mentor.

My thoughts on how streaming numbers translates into ARIA chart success in Australia.

What I learnt at the Digital Strategy Innovation Summit in Sydney.

Thanks again to Sarah and the Music Victoria team for shipping me off to Ballarat for a wonderful edition of the Live Music Professionals conference.

Here’s what happened on my 7th trip to BIGSOUND.

Taking a break from our usual programming… with a podcast recommendation. Like your standard advertising agency employee, I’m a bit of a nerd when it comes with things such as productivity, creativity and forecasting. I listened to this great episode of HerMoney With Jean Chatzky with Adam Grant, and it had so many bloody gems. Here are a few standouts.

The final BIGSOUND 2018 announcement is here… and I’m super excited to be speaking this year!

A wrap of my experience at CHANGES 2018, Australia’s newest music industry conference.

Spotify made world news last week with the announcement of their new Hate Content & Hateful Conduct policy.
