Hidden Gems: Meet Jake Robbins of Built Different Music Group

Today we’d like to introduce you to Jake Robbins.

Hi Jake, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstories.
My journey with music started DJing locally in Minneapolis. After diving into the music scene, I created a record label with a few of my friends called “High Caliber Records” and also started managing artists.

I then created Built Different Music Group, a company created to be a one-stop show for artists/brands. Our plan is to grow into a massive entity specializing in Artist Management, Music Promotion, Social Media Consulting, Artist growth, and brand awareness, and also a talent agency.

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
I think one of the biggest obstacles is going to be competing in such a saturated market. I do believe that with the connections and work, I’ve done in the scene thus far, I will have a step ahead more so than others would. Building a company from the ground up can be challenging, but with the right amount of work and dedication, I truly believe anything is achievable.

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?
BDMG is a consulting agency that is a one-stop shop for anything an artist or brand could need. Whether it’s a music promotion, artist management, talent agents, brand awareness/growth, media, or social media consulting… we got your back.

Something that sets us apart from others or how we’re “Built Differently” is because we do it all. Whether it’s consulting, promotional services, artist management, or helping you land shows when other agencies in this field primarily focus on one of these items.

Do you have recommendations for books, apps, blogs, etc?
Can’t Hurt Me by David Groggins has helped me a lot in life as it made me really feel like anything is possible has totally changed my mindset/outlook in life.
