"I'm just a music super fan who likes to dress up in silly clothes and dance."
That's not only a great line from my good buddy, fellow musician coach, platform leader and hero, it's who he is. It's who Carlos Castillo is that makes him a dynamic leader in the music space.
There are a LOT of "experts" in our communities of musicians. Many people who come in with big claims and big promises all trying to get your attention and your dollars.
Sadly a lot of these folks are all talk. Not only do many not really know the stuff they talk about, they also don't always have your best interests at heart. Fortunately for us, there are uncommon people like Carlos.
If this is your first introduction to Captain Schwilly (as several musicians and creative entrepreneurs know him as), then I hope you'll do yourself a favor and follow his leadership not just in growing your community of fans but also in giving back to the community with your service.
Giving is the hallmark of success. Read any book by a credible source of success like Seth Godin, Tony Robbins, Amanda Palmer, Oprah Winfrey, and the like and you'll see a pattern of giving among those who have reached the levels of notoriety and prominence that we all dream of.
That's the heart of Carlos Castillo too. I share that with him, as do all of the past guests on the DIY Artist Route Podcast. Double check what I just said. It's the truth.
You know what makes a super fan? It's someone who is genuine in what they say and do. Actually, people who become super fans fall in love with the person and the experience they have with them more than just the music or art or work itself. Anyone can make art. A good musician makes good music. But a great person? Those are harder to find.
It's this line of thinking and operating that Carlos specializes in from experience. It's also what he advocates for in his courses and his online communities like the Schwilly Family Musicians. I'm a member. Are you? If not, join up here.
By participating in the lives of the people you want to connect with, you become the leader that inspires and transforms. You gain not just an audience member. You gain someone whose passions align with your own. Their support transforms your career because it hits on a level that's beyond just art. It's personal.
Every guest I have on the DIY Artist Route Podcast teaches me something in our conversation. They've taught me a lot leading up to the podcast chat. One big thing Carlos continues to teach is that online relationships are very real. Music is just a starting point. Keep that in mind as you cultivate the connections with your audience, your marketing endeavors to media, your network, and your communities of fellow musicians.
I encourage you to follow Carlos via his online FB group and his Schwilly Family Musicians on Twitter. They're both great resources for you to grow on a regular basis. His email list is pretty badass too.
And if you haven't signed up for my email list, jump in with me by signing up in the right hand column. I share things with my Growth Farming tribe that no one else is privy to. It's all about building real, powerful and supportive relationships so all of us grow together.
