Before the internet, unsigned music artists couldnt make a living, off the thing they love and enjoy the most: Their music! They would have to send in demos to major record companys, hoping that the CEO’s would love their music and actually call them up on the phone offering them a recorddeal! But what they dont know is that the CEO’s dont give a f*#% about music!! They ONLY offer recordeals to artists who they know will become succesfull!

3 Tips to Marketing Your Music on the Internet

September 21st, 2008

The internet has revolutionized the way we do business. You can start
an online business for less than $100.00 and start earning a decent
amount of income off of it. Because of this, there has been an explosion
in the ‘Internet Marketing‘ world. I don’t consider myself an internet
marketer, but I’ve studied many of them and have learned some ‘out of the
box’ techniques that you can easily apply towards bands. Here are just a
few of the many tips I can give you:

  • Give First

    One way to get something from other is to give
    to them first. In music, one way to build a fan base is to play at venues
    that do not charge a cover and invite people to come as your guest. You
    definately don’t want to play a lot of venues for free, so you need to
    somehow communicate that you are doing this for your audience without
    saying it outright. You could say, “Hey guys, just to show you are appreciation,
    Flaming Onions would like to personally invite you to this special
    concert just for you! It’s totally free, so bring your friends and we’ll
    see you there!” They will come, because they believe that this is a gift
    from you and the won’t want to miss out!

    Another way to give first is through our products. Giving away products
    has gotten a lot easier since the development of the internet. Digital
    music is HUGE! Better yet, it costs nothing to duplicate. Have you thought
    about giving away one or two songs from your new album? What do you think
    would happen if you did, and left your fan’s favorites available only if
    they purchased it? First of all, they’re going to love the fact that you
    gave them part of your album for free! It’s almost like a free trial that
    they get to keep. Because you were willing to do this for them, they will
    be more likely to buy it from you. Give first, and they will give
    back to you!

  • Cross-selling/Up-selling

    Have you ever gone to McDonalds, ordered
    a burger and received the question, “Would you like fries with that?” Have
    you ever ordered one of their value meals and received the question “Would
    you like to Super-Size that?” What you heard, while innocent enough, was an
    amazing marketing concept that has been used by online merchants everywhere!

    It is a way to increase sales to the same customer (who has bought a product)
    by introducing other products in your product range. If customers buy a Flaming
    Onions CD, you can ask if they want to buy a Flaming Onions t-shirt as well.
    Seems simple enough, but let’s think a little more out of the box. Let’s say the
    Flaming Onions’ CD sells for $15 and brings in a profit of $10 per album. Let’s
    also assume that their t-shirts sell for $10 and bring in a profit of $6 per shirt.
    What if the Flaming Onions Value Pack (consisting of 1 autographed CD, 1 tshirt, and
    the album emailed to them in MP3 format with bonus track for their iPod and a desktop
    background pic for their computer) sells for $25? I’m willing to bet that this approach
    sells more. The digital products, as I mentioned above, cost nothing to duplicate.
    You profit would be the same, but I guarantee you would sell more!
  • Email List

    This is probably the most important tool that is used
    by online businesses. Internet Marketers swear by email lists and base many, if not
    all, of their systems around them. The concept is simple, you offer a list for fans
    to keep track of your band and all they have to do is give you their Name and email
    address. You now have a way to directly communicate to them, and better yet, they
    wanted it! You can promote upcoming shows and album releases. You can create
    contests and drawings for those that are signed up. You can give those who are signed
    up a special discount on merchandise. The possibilities are endless. One thing to
    remember is to only send them things they would want to know. They signed up to hear
    more about you, so they don’t want to receive any forwards stating that if they sign
    up for this offer, they can receive a free laptop, blah, blah, blah! Don’t abuse your
    list. Take care of them. This is an elite group of people who wanted to be a part of
    your success, so treat them that way.

Like I said these are just a few things you can do to market your music online (and even
a little offline). Be creative and have fun with it. To help you out, here are a few
