Information to help us promote your show
We are looking forward to your upcoming show.
We are working hard to promote the show in all available venues to us, but we need your help.
Please get on social media, mailing lists, phone calls etc. etc. and make a final push, we can use all the help we can get to get your show a success.
From what I see working successfully around here are some ideas.
- Getting the show listed on Bandintown is critical to get a good exposure for tickets sales on the internet. Get the show listed here https://www.artist.bandsintown.com/
- You need to create mailing list; social media is not enough for communication.
- Time needed for make phone calls and send personal messages to people you close with. It is the closest thing for “word of mouth” which working 100% better than anything else.
- A month before the show you are making the first announcement on social media and in a newsletter to your mailing list.
- 2 weeks before the show you are making posts every 3 days. Making a video of 30 sec of you talking and inviting in a personal way your fans/friends to the gig will go a very long way.
- The week of the show you post every day, alternating between your video message and a post with image (poster, usually can be copied from the venue).
If respond of tickets sales is low, the day before the show and the day of the show, you are making personal calls , message, to close friends for support.
