Music and Self-Promotion - Music artists views
Answers marked with a * are required.
 
Hello,

I am a French student doing a Bachelor in the UK, I am conducting this survey for my final year dissertation which question is "Self-Promotion in the Music Industry : a PR tactic ?".

This survey aims  to get the music artists and/or their representative perspective of self-promotion, how they perceive it and what it is for them.

Thank you very much for taking the time to answer these few questions, I know it looks like a lot but it actually shouldn't take more than 3-4 minutes. I really really appreciate it !
