I'M BLESSED.......
Luck is not invloved in marketing itself, just do your homework and market in areas that compliment and add to what it is that is relative to your music. Luck, or as some may say, fate, is often attatched to the result of your marketing scheme.
FIRST you have to have a talent that is of some type of demand. Be it because you're nice with it, or your originality is so different, someone is willing to take a chance on it.(INVESTOR)
SECOND you would have to be discovered. Maybe you know someone, who knows someone, who knows someone, who knows somebody.......Or you just happen to be at the right place at the right time!
Good marketing could land you in those categories, but most importantly remember: You're just a drop in the bucket. If being a signed artist, doing well, is what you're looking for.......You have to Most Importantly HAVE A TRUE TALENT, stay on your game, be diligent and learn all that you can, ask questions, and be ready for anything at all times......You may only get one shot at a grand opportunity and you gotta be ready!

Also, DON'T totally rely on the internet to do your work for you.
Myspace and things like that are good, but people on the internet are almost ALWAYS expecting something for nothing. You have to know your area and hit the pavement where people are going to feel you. If your area does open mic nights, that could be a good start.
Oh yeah, don't forget to try to network with other people. It's a numbers game so if you're on other people's music and someone likes one of them, that's more chance for your name to get spread around.
Like Trump said, nothing can beat true talent. Just remember that this game is filled with sharks. Don't get bit.

Well, other than the net, look for peformances, clashes (if you're into it), do mixtapes (gains street cred), obtain a street teams to push tracks, posters....
Or do it the easy way....Screw with a rich chick and use her money for promoting urself...
