When first starting out, Facebook ads can be a great first step in musicians promoting their music. Music promotion services or PR firms should be used when musicians are in the fourth stage of their music career. Fill out the form if you are interested in learning about my strategy in creating Facebook ads. You’ll be the first to hear about the workshop when it becomes available!
Using music promotion services is a great idea for people who are in the fourth stage of their music career. This is a time where musicians have had a lot of experience with performing, doing music videos and have a fairly large fanbase. Before musicians get to that point, though, there is an easier (and cheaper) way to promote themselves.  
10 reasons why Facebook Ads are a better choice than music promotion services:

Low barrier of entry, making it a common option for musicians with a limited budget.
Money goes directly to promotion, not paying someone like it would in a music promotion service.
Uses micro-targeting- targeting specific people in an audience.
Makes use of videos and live-streams to talk or perform for your audience.
Engagement with followers- you are able to comment on posts made on your ads.
You are able to give your audience a call to action. (Example: love it/share it)
Robust tracking. You are able to see how many people see, like, share and click on your ad. You can also see things like how many people watch a live stream and how many watch it on the replay and how many likes, shares, clicks, etc are generated from that. This includes conversion tracking, which shows you how much it cost you to get a person to buy something or join your email list.
They ares are testable. You can start out with just $5 and work from there, seeing what works best for you.
 Allows you to nurture people through their fan discovery journey (or funnel) by using calculated steps and retargeting people who don’t respond.
Can be utilized at every level of your music career.
