Divide and conquer.
An efficient way to get your band’s career moving is for each member to take on particular band business responsibilities. In doing so, take a realistic look at your different personalities and experience. Someone more outgoing can deal with setting up and later conducting interviews with media/blogs/etc. in a given city. Another can handle tour logistics (lodging, expenses, merchandise, fees). Perhaps someone else can keep media and venue databases up-to-date or write band bios and keep social media fresh. You may need to double up personnel in some areas, but what is most important is that you are doing things yourselves, learning as you go, relying on each other, and saving money along the way. First and foremost you need to create your music, but at your best you are also a small company trying to make a living. Don’t hire someone to do something you can handle doing yourself.
