"New" 'Affordable' Service For Gigging Musicians:
As a performing musician, if you are having to make sure that the public is aware of your gigs by providing press releases and notices to radio stations, television stations, or print publications in your gig areas, or worse, if you are relying on the media efforts of your venues, you know what a pain that can be as well as the incredible amount of time it takes to be effective.But, if you are not contacting and notifying ANY media about your gigs, you are probably missing out on quite a bit of income BIG TIME through:
* Lost music sales from people who would have bought your CD at your gigs, IF only they had heard or seen a notice about your gig on their local television and radio newscasts, local entertainment calendars, or read about it in their local newspapers...that is, IF you had sent the gig area media your press release.
* Lost music sales from people who would have bought your digital music downloads online immediately after they returned home from your gig, IF only they had known about your gig from their local TV, radio, or press...that is, IF you had sent the gig area media your press release.
As I said, I know it can be a pain to stay on top of all the media sources available in each gig area, especially if you are gigging consistently.
But, most gigging musicians do not seem to understand the importance of taking advantage of sending press releases to each media source in their gigs' areas. Plus, and again, it takes a whole LOT of time, just to stay on top of each media source in each gig area.
But, at the same time, the local offline print media wherever you are playing gigs is not a luxury that you can afford do ignore, but it is vital, and you need them, particularly, for letting local people know about your upcoming future gigs in their areas.
After all, let's be real...how many people do YOU know in your own local area who actually go online to a website to learn what artist is performing at their favorite clubs tonight or this weekend? Probably not many, if any.
From my experience, most people who are planning on going out to night clubs still simply check their local newspapers' entertainment sections to see where the clubs are, and which bands that are playing them.
[---WHAT I WILL DO FOR YOU---]Since we are both now aware that to continuously make sure that as many people as possible always know about your upcoming gig in their area is going to take an amazing amount of ongoing work for you to do on your own, I can relieve you from this pain by contacting all television stations' newscasts and talk shows, all radio stations' newscasts and talk shows, and all print medias' music, lifestyle, and arts and entertainment editors about your gig.
My goal will be to get you on-air interviews (which may require your coming into the gig town a wee bit earlier in the day), and calendar listings in the print publications. With radio stations and print media, interviews can be conducted via telephone from your home base.
[---MY RATES---]My rates start at just $30 per gig, per week (or 7-day period), with each additional gig having a 10% discount, again, as long as your additional gigs are within your first gig's week/7-day period.
As an example, here is a break-down example based on your having 4 gigs within a given week:
Gig 1 on Tuesday evening costs you $30 for my PR
Gig 2 on Wednesday evening costs you only $27 for my PR
Gig 3 on Friday evening costs you only $24 for my PR
Gig 4 on Saturday evening costs you only $21 for my PRAlso, as you can see, it doesn't even matter if you skip a day or two (such as the Thursday in the above example), as long as your 4 gigs occur within a week or 7-day period.
Now, assuming you have 4 gigs within a week or 7-day period, your cost above is only $102 for that week's promotion and publicity for all gigs combined. On each additional gig, you save 10% off the initial $30, for a maximum savings of 30%.
And, it doesn't matter if your gigs are all local, regional, national, or international, again, as long as they occur within the same week or 7-day period.
At the very least, if you only have one gig in a week, you only spend $30 to ensure you are covered with the television and radio stations in your gig's area, as well as the gig's area print media.
You will probably agree that you would spend almost that much in lost time, packaging, and mailing out press kits to the media on your own.
All I need to get started is:
the complete contact information of your gig(s) venue(s), including telephone number, website, and email address
the date(s) of your gig(s) or performance(s)
the time the venue(s) doors open
the time your performance begins
the price of admission (if any)
your music website address
the age limit (if any)
any additional information you feel is important
your payment (in advance) sent online through PayPal, using this specific PayPal email address. If this sounds like a great and fair deal, and you are interested, please let me know when you would like to get started.
In advance, thank you.
