What Every Musician Needs to Succeed in 2020

best of 2019 content

Forget ‘Best of 2019’ album lists. The Haulix team is sharing the best content to help you land on ‘Best of 2020’ lists when the year comes to an end.

No one envies young musicians. The business of music has grown exponentially more complicated over the last decade, and further complications will no doubt arise in 2020. Between fighting for attention on streaming services, the need to always be engaging fans on social media, and the everyday struggles of improving one’s creative output, there is too much to do for anyone to maintain their sanity.

But there is hope. HaulixDaily is a resource for music industry guides and understanding. We aspire to curate content that helps artists in every genre further their careers through smart business practices and personal development. We post numerous articles every week with this goal in mind, including more than three-hundred posts in the last year, and we have no plans to cease our efforts anytime soon.

With 2020 now officially underway, we went back and reviewed the most read content we posted in 2019. We see there is continuing interest in emerging social media platforms, the battle over streaming royalties, playlisting, and a severe lack of organization amongst artists on the rise. Everyone is trying to do everything all the time, and it is creating mediocre content with a side of burnout.

The majority of the industry will be out of their offices until at least January 6. Use the links to our most popular content below to educate yourself on what is happening in the entertainment business and how you can position yourself to succeed in the year ahead.
