JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – May 15, 2025 – Mason Carbone, a digital marketing and growth specialist, has carved a niche in the music industry by helping thousands of artists, including notable names like 22gz and Holy Gabana, amplify their reach. With a passion for music as the most profound art form and inspired by his artist sister, Carbone leverages his expertise to guide musicians toward success.
“My primary focus is ensuring my clients achieve tangible results,” says Carbone. “This involves not only implementing marketing strategies but also fostering accountability and maintaining strong relationships. Each artist benefits from custom consultations and a tailored approach, analyzing their music to determine the most effective advertising avenues.”
Carbone emphasizes that while talent is crucial, an artist’s activity and consistency are key factors he considers when selecting clients. “Much of my work is collaborative, requiring the artist to actively participate,” he explains. “A strong work ethic and high production quality signal an artist’s seriousness, which significantly impacts the success of marketing efforts.”
To help musicians cultivate their unique sound, Carbone advises artists to build upon their strengths, focusing on songs that resonate best with audiences. He underscores the importance of publications in establishing credibility, brand recognition, and audience growth.
Carbone employs a multi-faceted approach to fan base development and industry visibility. This includes algorithmic marketing for Instagram content to pre-promote releases, targeted Spotify advertising to capitalize on the dominant streaming platform, and YouTube advertising to enhance visual representation and artist recognition. Furthermore, securing articles and publications boosts verification, improves Google presence, and broadens exposure.
Acknowledging the challenge of standing out in a saturated industry, Carbone asserts that “proper marketing and exposure are what differentiate artists. You can have exceptional music, but without it reaching the right ears, its impact is limited.”
Carbone highlights instances where his marketing efforts have led to larger management teams reaching out to his artists and multiple record label signings. He recounts artists securing distribution deals within a year of advertising, attributing their success to the leverage gained through their enhanced digital presence.
Staying ahead of industry trends is paramount for Carbone, who actively observes market shifts and adapts his strategies accordingly. Networking and continuous learning from others in the field are integral to his process. His advice to aspiring musicians seeking management is clear: “Build leverage through self-investment. Develop your brand, image, and fan base to demonstrate your seriousness and attract the attention of music managers.”
Effective communication and collaboration are the cornerstones of Carbone’s relationships with his artists. Prioritizing consistent engagement with dedicated clients ensures focused and impactful support.
