I love the idea of the vlog, but can you tell me a little bit more about the company? After watching the video, I still am somewhat curious what Dubseed actually does and what its mission is.
Your next step is to market the hell out of your vlog. If you're interested, I can point you toward some great articles to read from StartupNation.

welcome to the forum, nice work.
Sure thing Ryan nice to hear from you. So the concept of Dubseed is explained in a bit more detail through further blogs and im currently working on a youtube channel trailer that is also an "elevator pitch" so to speak.
Essentially Dubseed is a marketplace for a new audio file format called the .Stem file. On the surface this file looks like a regular .MP4, however the main difference is that embedded within the file are 4 musical elements/instruments that make up that song (Called Stems) . For example a Stem file could consist of Vocals, Drums, Bass, and Leads that when played simultaneously make up the original track. The Stem file provides an amazing opportunity for DJs, Producers, and even Music Enthusiasts to mix and explore music in a way that was not as accessible beforehand.
Episode two of the vlog explains this more in depth:

I submit my Vlogs to the Entrepreneurial Story competition as I feel Dubseed has an interesting story to tell (both current, future, and past). Looking fwd to hearing your thoughts!
I would love to take you up on your offer to get some of that reading material that you think may be helpful to me. Thanks Ryan I appreciate it!
Cheers,
Rob
Thanks mate I appreciate it!
Your product is kind of on its own, and is quite unique. But the following articles provide a couple of marketing concepts and strategies to employ, as well as to avoid. Of course, marketing is never a "one size fits all approach," but these are concepts every entrepreneur should consider. So, that means you will have to figure out what works best for your product.
