Tone’s Post

Do you know how to get the people who come and see you live to join your mailing list? It’s easily one of the most important things any artist, DJ, dance/ theatre company can do. Sadly, it often slides down the (LONG) list of priorities. When I worked as a live music promoter artists never asked me for the email addresses of ticket buyers and I didn’t think to set it up 😩. If that’s you, sorry I can’t send them now due to GDPR laws! When I worked in the funded arts sector I found out it’s standard practice for venues to share this data with dance and theatre companies ✨ BUT they don’t always think to set it up correctly in advance. James Blake is 100% right, companies like Ticketmaster SHOULD share email addresses with artists. BUT, most artists and companies aren’t James Blake, and a lot of smaller venues/ promoters WILL do this if you ask them to in advance. There’s plenty you can do to build your list, so I’ve put together a FREE checklist ✅ of 10 straightforward tasks to help artists, DJs, dance/ theatre companies turn the fans who want to see them live in to subscribers. This kind of mailing list is the absolute bedrock of a thriving live performance business. There’s also a data sharing clause you can copy and paste to send promoters/ venues, examples of subscriber perks, and a sample newsletter sign-up sheet in case you’re not sure what language to use. I’ve used all of these techniques over the years as a promoter and a marketer to build valuable mailing lists for myself and the artists and companies I’ve worked with, and they definitely work. https://lnkd.in/dhbdxDZf I hope it helps!

December is for follow-up calls to set up 2025 you. Here's the easiest, low-hangin' fruit kind of call opener right now: "Hey ____, this is Brandon with Awardco, how's it going? (good, what about you) Just trying to get the Wicked soundtrack out of my head, so great! (laugh) *end scene* This works for 2 reasons: 1) Wicked is soundtrack/album of the year for 2024 (change my mind) 2) If you've heard it, you can't escape it. So go listen to it, and then hit the phones. You're welcome. P.S. I've reactivated a couple of stalled deals, and gotten a set from this just today. #sdr #sales #ae -- I'm Brandon Jeppson, and I rip dials.
