This is a common misconception. The way you've always reached audiences outside of your own neighborhood has been to travel outside your own neighborhood adding people to your audience eyeball to eyeball. The same money people spend on recording gear or studio time would do a lot more for a performing career if it were spent on a publicist instead.

Record labels only sign people who have proven they can build a following.
