“You know how the music fanbase has been gradually
slipping over the past decade? What I would do is
create a video to show customers who purchase
music of what I could do for them online vs in store.
Customers will choose if they want to shop at the
retail store or online. If they chose to buy direct from
the company it would be cheaper than in retail
stores.
