Dear Fred and Lyna,

We are a provincial tie that is provoking to get a wider gathering. We have been in circles for two time of life musical performance local clubs and we have a micro later. After attentive to several of your shows we've gotten any remarkable ideas; but we were questioning if you have any scurrying distance we can get our social group more exposure?

The Lightning Bugs

Fred: You're not unsocial. According to Myspace at hand are about one million Indie bands in the global and I am positive in that are a lot more. The genuineness is that not all will variety it big. Aside from having favourable music, it takes selling and promotion to get the murmur active.

Lyna: Musicians. Artists, Trades people- in information even our radio put on view is genuinely no nothing like than any concern in that good opinion. Fred and I are continuously brainstorming on new distance to hang on to our listenership escalating.

Fred: What we insight case and occurrence once again is that the utmost eventful piece in any firm is the consumer. Or in this case, your fans, Word of maw is so potent. If your someone tells you more or less a new music line that they love, what is your reaction?

Lyna: Mine would be, "I've gotta draft them out" And when I did, I'd at one time be reasoning that I'd suchlike them because they came by a opinion.

Fred: So if your fans are the strongest and fastest way to get more exposure; mayhap it would be sapiential to extravaganza them your credit. This is where you can really have fun.

Lyna: As near any business, you should before have a web tract. This could have movement shots of the band, a bio page, expedition listings and weekly reviews. In fact- if you have CD's of your music, give an sound of a small of a few songs you've recorded. Why not allocate a leaf to members merely for your fans? If you put a communication lath up they can touch remains with else fans and you can perceive all the honourable things they put in the picture all other than just about you.

Fred: You can even donate your fans incentives. I know a bevy that gives do away with t-shirts, CD's and even tickets to gigs to the fans that take 10 or more culture to the bands post database. They convey out a time unit write up to sustenance their fans updated and even profiles their #1 fan of the time period.

Lyna: Wow-That's an incentive! How in the order of interrogative them to bring on your trimming to their town? Your fans can set up the gigs, get friends to be their "street team" to topically support you and you'll have an split second pack to achieve to.

Fred: Another way to grow your revelation could be to introduce yourself beside another bands. Promote all otherwise by introducing your fans to them and they can relate their fans nearly you.

Lyna: They can likewise be your label into musical performance at a venue that is rubbery to get. My friend JB proven for months to get engaged in one of Atlanta's hot musca volitans. This venue had a regular
Group of bands that vie at hand and they had no aim to natural event this. Fortunately, JB met a singer who is one of these regulars. One dark she brought him on as her first showing act and the gathering beloved him. So now he can stage show here pretty considerably whenever he goes to Atlanta.

Fred: Networking, edifice alliances, line of work to your clients- safe familiar? These are all concepts we allowance with any business that desires to get more than exposure. The way you do this retributive depends on what your "stage" looks similar to.
