FOUNDER EXPERIENCE
I’m Chuck Magid, Founder of Magid Music Marketing, also known as M3 Marketing. I help live entertainment brands build modern marketing systems that support sustainable ticket growth.
Before launching M3, I held in-house marketing roles with Playa Luna Presents, Live Nation Destination Events, and 100x Hospitality, where I led digital strategy, paid media, social media, campaign planning, on-site content teams, website builds, and broader marketing operations for major destination music events, including Dead & Company’s Playing in the Sand, Phish: Riviera Maya, Luke Bryan’s Crash My Playa, Brandi Carlile’s Girls Just Wanna Weekend, Goose’s Viva El Gonzo, and other large-scale live entertainment properties.
Before stepping into marketing leadership, I built my career as a touring musician and venue marketer, giving me a perspective that spans the stage, the box office, the marketing department, and the executive table. Today, I bring that experience to M3, helping artists, venues, festivals, and live entertainment organizations build the strategy, systems, and execution needed to turn great shows into stronger ticket sales.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
“Since partnering with M3 Marketing, we’ve seen remarkable growth in all key metrics. Our click-through rates and sales have soared, leading to one of the highest grossing orchestra weekends ever. M3 Marketing has expertly managed our diverse programming, from jazz and blues to ballet and comedy. Their strategic insights and clear communication have made it easy for our team to understand and act on the results. As a programming director who also oversees operations for three different rooms, having the peace of mind to trust M3 Marketing allows me to focus on what truly matters, knowing that everything is handled professionally and efficiently.”
Adam Volpe
Senior Director of Operations and Programming
Reilly Arts Center
“The M3 Marketing team drove a near sell-out of our first ever four-wall event at the Lyric Theatre in Stuart, FL, selling 453 of 470 available seats, a 96% sell-through rate. Their digital ad strategy and execution turned a risky venue rental into a packed house, generating the band’s highest payout to date.”
