Proper etiquette for sharing your music
ARTIST TOOLKIT :: SHARE NOT SPAM
Contrary to your personal beliefs
not everyone is going to want to
hear your blazing new track. I
know crazy right you spent a lot
of time and money on creating this
new Grammy worthy track! You
even went on social media and
@ everyone on your timeline but
folks still are not hitting the link to
witness the greatness that is your
master piece.
What an outrage right? NO! It
is not an outrage. Well maybe for you but I would be
willing to bet hose that you
randomly shared your music
with feels more abused than
outraged.
Understand I am not saying
your single is not good or
does not deserve to be heard
yet what I am saying is there
is a proper way to share your
single with people that would
yield a better outcome and
12
guarantee folks hit the link
not only to listen to your
Grammy worthy single but
to also become a fan and a
supporter.
Simply follow the steps
below:
Step 1. Pin your new single
to your social media profiles.
Doing this will allow those
interested supporters, djays,
and program directors using
the proper email etiquette
(refer to the July Issue of
Misfit Tunes The Magazine if
you are not familiar with the
proper etiquette). This will
ensure you reach those that
would enjoy hearing you new
track.
that visit your profile to see
your single as your first post.
This will also keep the single
as a focal point.
Step 2. Market and promote
your single weeks leading up
to its release. Doing this will
alert people that you have
new music coming. It will
also prevent you from flooding your timeline with the
same post becoming a pest to
those that follow your feed.
Step 3. Send an email to all
Step 4. Schedule three
tweets a day the first in the
morning between 7am and
10am, the second afternoon
between 12pm to 3pm, and
the third and the final in the
evening between 5pm and
8pm. These times have been
identified as peak social media traffic times. Scheduling
will ensure you do not flood
timelines.
HAPPY SHARING!
