Welcome to Other Record Labels, hosted by Scott, where we dive into the practical side of running an indie record label. In this episode, we explore the art of goal setting for label owners, breaking it down with the SMART framework.
Discover how to make your goals Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound, as we guide you through the process of transforming vague aspirations into clear objectives. We'll show you the difference between saying you want to "make more money" and setting a goal like "earn $10,000 in the next 12 months."
Scott shares insights on aligning your goals with your label's mission and emphasizes the importance of realistic targets. Plus, learn how to create a timeline that balances ambition with practicality, ensuring your goals are both challenging and attainable.
In the second part, we discuss practical strategies for achieving your record label goals. Scott breaks down the process into bite-sized tasks and mini-goals, providing a roadmap for success. Whether it's landing on a top albums list or building a stronger online presence, we've got you covered.
