May 19, 2010 | In: Affiliate Marketing
E. Tee Shirts
If your budget will allow, you could make an investment in an order of tee shirts ( custom shirts ) that promote your band name, logo and website address.
F. College Radio Interviews
Contact area colleges and offer to interview with them as a part of their content. If agreed, be sure to provide the host or producer a copy of your complete CD in advance.
G. College Television Interviews
Same as above. Contact college television stations and offer to be an interview subject. If you also have a video, this is a perfect time to have it aired during your interview. In fact, if you have a professional video, this may be the only calling card you need to get the interview.
H. Interview with College Newspapers
College newspapers are a boon for exposure because they can feature both interviews and music reviews. Therefore, you should consider publishing this as an opportunity to interview and consider for low cost advertising for your new music
.
I. Flea Markets
There are some incredibly large flea markets ( Tailored shirts ) that are open to the general public on weekends. It is likely that it is possible that at least there is one near you
. Contact the management and offer to play for free as entertainment in exchange for management allowing you to sell your CDs. I have been to many large flea markets but I cannot recall ever seeing a band performing. This could be a good start for the exhibition and sale for you and other bands
.
J. Customized ( custom men’s shirts ) ID Checks
Offer radio stations a free customized station ID check for them to air. If you have a rather perfect region following, this will operate even better. Station ID checks sound something to the effect of…
“Hello, this is John Thomas from The Stinging Lizards.
No matter when I awake in the morning,my alarm clock is usually set to KTAV 103 FM.”
With these ten steps, you can easily see how implementing only several of them regularly and consistently, could, indeed, quickly and easily triple your CD sales.
