How To Build An Audio Career 100% Online From Anywhere In The World: With Austin Hull

Chris Graham and Brian Hood are joined by Austin Hull, a full-time producer from our own Facebook community. In this holiday-postponed episode, you can learn how Austin harnessed his own Facebook community to act as a nearly-endless source of leads — even though he never intended it to be one in the first place.

Austin has worked with over three-hundred clients in the past year, and every single one of them came from his group. Find out more about this impressive feat by listening to this episode of The Six Figure Home Studio Podcast.

In this episode you’ll discover:

  • How Austin grew his business, as a college student with a full-time job at Barnes and Noble, into a six-figure full-time mixing business
  • What Austin did to more than triple the size of his community from 5,000 to 17,000 in just one year
  • How the metal and pop communities are different, and how that’s an advantage for both, but in different ways
  • How Austin turned his un-branded group into Make Pop Music, a successful business
  • Why Austin doesn’t need to read The Go-Giver, but everyone else should
  • What dentists and recording studios have in common
  • How Austin maintains his short turnaround time for clients
  • How Austin juggles up to thirty clients simultaneously
  • What creating your own lead source can do for your business

Quotes

“The more I started posting the stuff I was working on, people would come into the group. The more people that would come into the group while I was working on stuff, they would start offering to pay me either to mix, or to write, or to produce, or anything.” – Austin Hull

“You spotted something in one little part of the market and you said, ‘wow that’s amazing, could I transplant that somewhere else?’ Whether you did that intentionally or unintentionally, you still did it!” – Chris Graham

“There’s no ‘easy button’ for this. This takes work, no matter what you do. The cool part is, he just did this without any in-person interactions with these people, it was 100% online.” – Brian Hood
