Once I completed the spreadsheet, I’ve came to realise that there are many ways we could make a profit through events such as this through merchandise and CD sales. Whilst attempting to achieve a profit we’ll come across many things that could decrease the amount we make such as studio time, t shirt designing and making the product itself as it all cost a high amount of money. There are other roles in the event that is vital such as a door man for security purposes and a sound technician. This could be avoided by making CD’s in our own home studios, mastering your own personal record, use a friend to manage the door and technician. Using people and contacts you know through DIY are a well followed trend within the music industry nowadays.
The music that will be played at the gig includes varied set lists from different genres to satisfy the majority of our audience in our generation. We’ve set a ticket price of £3.00 which is affordable and worth it; also we’ve decided as a group that we will give 70% of these sales towards Japan for the saddening events happened recently. This will encourage people to come to our gig as it is for a good cause. As for my repertoire, we find that we are creating music that is commercial however a way for us to project our personal preferences.
