| Mindset | Values peace + service; open to constructive feedback | Avoids energy drains |
| Audience Size | 1k – 25k followers (slightly ahead or on par) | Large enough to teach you, small enough to reply |
2 – Source the First 20 Prospects (1–2 hours)
| Channel | Search Tactic | Target # |
|---|---|---|
| Use “Creator” or “Music Producer” + “automation” filters; sort by Posts ➜ top last 90 days | 8 | |

| Podcasts | Browse Making Music Work / Creative Pep Talk guests with <25 k IG followers | 4 |
| Discord | “Music Producers” servers ➜ #share-your-work channels | 2 |
