“One day I woke up at the intersection of what was going to make me money and bring me joy. I knew immediately that it was merging the two things I loved more than anything… My love for music and travel. That day, I threw caution to the wind and TimeZone International was born.”

International exposure is pivotal for any artist;
allow us to help you unlock the world for your brand.

GLOBAL MARKETING

Our localized marketing reps are tastemakers in their respective territories, exposing global consumers to cutting-edge American brands. TZI's clients benefit from our team's dedication to representing what's "rated next" to create marketplace buzz. We develop comprehensive, territory-specific marketing plans with an aggressive grassroots outreach approach.

ARTIST DEVELOPMENT

Despite being critically acclaimed, music produced outside the United States can struggle to gain traction in the American market due to differences in branding. TZI offers foreign artists a variety of services, including access to specialists in production, marketing, styling and media training. By utilizing these resources, (international) artists can ensure a successful release both Stateside and abroad..

We also coordinate marketing and press promotion for each tour to ensure maximum exposure.

CULTURAL LIAISING

At TimeZone, we prioritize the comfort and cultural education of our clients, equipping them to navigate foreign territories and connect with global audiences. This approach has helped both established and emerging artists / brands to overcome language and cultural barriers through the universal language of music; all while maximizing their business opportunities.
