Distribution is so so so important and something I watch creatives fail at time and time again. 

Creatives create by their very nature however this idea of 'If you build it they will come' is not good enough. The other 50% of this is what are you going to do with your art once you have created it.

Stop thinking about distribution as advertising to the masses when you don't have the money to back that up. A status on facebook telling people about your new album is 1% towards the final sale.

Think of your audience as 1000 x one person and not one audience of 1000. Therefore hit everyone up individually if needs be, text, phone, email, at gigs, even personally and then do that again and again and again until you hit the targets you are after.

I personally believe with a bit of work any local band should be able to sell 1000 copies of a single/album over time... notice i say 'Over time!'
