7 Powerful Viral Marketing Gifts For Your Online Music Promotion - Part 3

It’s time to conclude our series on viral music marketing. Online music promotion can be really fun when you use these techniques.

Here are some quick tips to make your viral promotional materials stronger;

Sex sells

This is true but don’t overestimate it. You are selling your music not your body.

Having said that make sure you look attractive in the pictures and videos you use. You can also show off your body a little but don’t over do it. It may not give you the results you want.

Be larger than life

Whatever you do, make sure it is something your fans can look up to or aspire to be. If you present yourself as “just another person” that’s how you’ll be perceived. I’m sure you can think of many ideas to make you look even cooler than you already do.

Remember; in show business perception is reality.

Label your stuff!

Make sure you band name or better still website address can be clearly seen on all your materials. That way, when fans like your promotional materials they know where they can get more.

Nothing would be more annoying to you, than getting a lot of downloads and people forgetting where they got them from.

Put effort into it

People make the mistake of thinking viral marketing is about doing nothing and getting a lot in return.

Your fans must enjoy whatever it is you are giving them.

You also have to make sure you create stuff that truly represents your band image. Yes, it will take some time and effort. If you don’t believe in it don’t do it!

Be original but a bit “generic”

Your promo materials should stand out but in a way that fits you genre. You know best what kind of things your fans like. Creating images and logos that people naturally drift to in your genre will make your work spread faster.

You can even make screensavers or wallpapers that only contain themes your fans like and simply put your name or web URL on them!
