Highlights

Host opens Tuesday group coaching session; invites questions/requests.
Josh asks about merch images appearing different/smaller on storefront vs uploaded files; host begins reviewing Street Team account.
Host explains mockups vs print files and that Placements are the source of truth sent to Printful; hoodie print area constraints may require hoodie-specific design adjustments.
Transition to Pavel: confirms hoodie visibility issue appears fixed; host notes internal review process can delay approval/publishing of merch items.
Pavel asks about selling caps/other merch; host recommends using Printful directly (Shopify optional, but costs monthly).
Pavel asks about running ads to a Spotify playlist; host recommends playlist ads can yield multiple plays per visitor and suggests testing for ~1 month.
Host builds an automated welcome email (follower-triggered) linking new followers to introductions post and Pavel’s playlist (“Sunset Jazz House”).
Josh asks about routing Ableton audio/video through Street Team Live; host tests system audio and participants report poor quality/artifacts.
Host creates and posts a feature request for clean DAW audio routing into Stages; encourages upvotes/tokens.
Host answers Josh’s video editing question: recommends DaVinci Resolve (free) and CapCut (paid) and demonstrates a vertical conversion technique using layers/blur.
Host advises how to compile music videos by cutting between multiple scenes/angles for the same song; suggests using B-roll if only 60 seconds of footage exists.
Host shares upcoming coaching schedule and reminds Gold/Platinum artists about the mastermind and events calendar.
