Independent Film Self Distribution & Marketing Blueprint with This is Meg
Over the past 6 months or so I've been getting an enormous amount of emails and messages asking me the same question:

What is your distribution and marketing plan for This is Meg?


I hear you IFH Tribe, so I decide to put this podcast together and lay out the marketing and distribution blueprint I created to get This is Megout into the world.
In this episode, I break down:

Why I didn't go through a traditional distributor
Why I didn't do a theatrical run through TUGG
How I will be self-distributing This is Meg
What platforms I'll be selling on and why
What my marketing strategy is

This is Meg has been a giant experiment to see what happens and I wanted to share the ride with you, the IFH Tribe. Thank you for all the support. Take a listen and keep on hustlin'.
