I’ve seen too many great films struggle after they’re finished.
Not because they weren’t good…
But because no one thought through how they were going to market and release them.
That’s a workflow problem.
In most industries, you don’t build the product and THEN figure out who it’s for.
But filmmakers do it all the time.
We’re also living in a moment where you can build your own audience and that changes everything.
He who owns the audience, wins the day.
In this article, I break down:
Why audience should be greenlit first
Why direct sales matter more than ever
Why your release plan should be mapped BEFORE production
If you’re putting together a pitch deck, this matters.
