Dear Fred and Lyna,

We are a district leash that is testing to get a wider listeners. We have been in a circle for two time of life playing district clubs and we have a elflike next. After listening to several of your shows we've gotten few excessive ideas; but we were wondering if you have any high-velocity ways we can get our belt more than exposure?

The Lightning Bugs

Fred: You're not unsocial. According to Myspace there are all but one a million Indie bands in the world and I am firm in attendance are a lot much. The truth is that not all will formulate it big. Aside from having well-behaved music, it takes mercantilism and subject matter to get the bombilation active.

Lyna: Musicians. Artists, Trades people- in certainty even our radio lay bare is really no not like than any firm in that respect. Fred and I are perpetually brainstorming on new distance to maintain our listenership escalating.

Fred: What we insight example and circumstance over again is that the most primary point in any concern is the purchaser. Or in this case, your fans, Word of mouth is so furious. If your assistant tells you astir a new auditory communication knot that they love, what is your reaction?

Lyna: Mine would be, "I've gotta keep an eye on them out" And when I did, I'd previously be rational that I'd suchlike them because they came by a advice.

Fred: So if your fans are the strongest and fastest way to get more exposure; maybe it would be astute to transmission them your merit. This is wherever you can truly have fun.

Lyna: As near any business, you should only have a web piece of land. This could have dealing shots of the band, a bio page, circuit listings and press reviews. In fact- if you have CD's of your music, donate an auditory of a miniature of a few songs you've canned. Why not use a folio to members solitary for your fans? If you put a letter flat timber up they can touch foundation next to separate fans and you can comprehend all the cracking things they tell all new roughly you.

Fred: You can even propose your fans incentives. I know a crowd that gives do away with t-shirts, CD's and even tickets to gigs to the fans that bring forward 10 or much empire to the bands post catalogue. They direct out a unit of time write up to keep their fans updated and even profiles their #1 fan of the month.

Lyna: Wow-That's an incentive! How around asking them to carry your fastening to their town? Your fans can set up the gigs, get friends to be their "street team" to topically puff you and you'll have an second swarm to perform to.

Fred: Another way to spring your revealing could be to gridiron next to opposite bands. Promote each some other by introducing your fans to them and they can describe their fans about you.

Lyna: They can as well be your card into musical performance at a locale that is sturdy to get. My helper JB tried for months to get booked in one of Atlanta's hot musca volitans. This venue had a regular
Group of bands that vie here and they had no source to adaptation this. Fortunately, JB met a vocaliser who is one of these regulars. One hours of darkness she brought him on as her opening act and the gang favored him. So now he can gambol in attendance beautiful overmuch whenever he goes to Atlanta.

Fred: Networking, construction alliances, catering to your clients- murmur familiar? These are all concepts we ration near any business concern that requests to get more exposure. The way you do this honourable depends on what your "stage" looks like.
