Finn Hodgins, who is the Founder and CEO of Grouped, a platform where independent and label artists can create and engage their fans, and help turn them into a revenue stream for the artist. 90% of artists derive their income from their top 1% of their fan base. Grouped helps with the data entry, and the algorithms that the artist needs to achieve that goal. But there’s so much more to this platform, and Finn shares all of the angles and aspects of Grouped, which is a way that an artist can provide their own social network, with ownership belonging to that creative person.
