Most likely you have heard the whisper. Perhaps social or from a friend. Positivemediapromotions.co.uk is catching raw energy and ambition when something is developing. Let’s open what makes this grassroots dynamo unique, where young artists and creatives get a launchpad instead of only a platform.
When you visit their website, you find a pleasant, honest promise—actual individuals advancing real ambitions rather than corporate coldness or meaningless marketing jargon. Front and center are musicians, visual storytellers, emotionally sensitive photographers, spoken word masters. No filters with fog. There is no patronizing “advice.” Rather, the emphasis is on providing individuals with the connections and tools they so need.
A cursory look at their efforts reveals plenty. They are showcasing a street artist whose mural turned an ugly underpass into a rainbow of expression one week. The next is bringing a debut from postcode obscurity into online festivals where fresh eyes linger, an indie filmmaker. The lack of gatekeeping is very refreshing. Rather, open calls for entries abound on their sites.
Let’s discuss numbers here: Under their direction, some local acts have transitioned from performing bars to streaming stages in 2021. Thanks to team-created digital exhibits, visual artists have discovered new audiences—and paid purchasers. Based on their own figures from last year, almost half scored commercial gigs off the back of a single feature and over 75% of creative members reported improved exposure after collaborations.
Positivemediapromotions.co.uk is unique in their real support system. They run seminars, sure—with an emphasis on everything from digital copyright to branding basics—because nobody likes surprise DMCA strikes. Monthly Q&A sessions where experts and first-timers mix in Zoom rooms also take place. Comments are sincere, useful, and doable. I have seen frightened musicians arrive with a single demo, leave two hours later with a well-defined strategy and three probable partners.
Their visibility is sharp and solution-oriented in the belly of social media. Have your gig and need a photographer? Most likely, that is previously covered in a post. Looking to team up on a charitable event with a spoken word artist? Slides into their DMs; they will intro. The attitude is group rather than competing.
One particularly popular program is their local radio collaboration. They have earned monthly slots to highlight local musicians and brand-new songs. Anyone who believes radio is dying has not witnessed the swarm of DMs pouring in following a teaser track. It’s actual exposure, reaching those who wouldn’t pass your Instagram page.
