Band Promotion: Band Promo Ideas

October 15th 2009 in Band Promotion

New re-positionable vinyl stickers offer artists some amazing new promotional tools.

Promoting your band with vinyl stickers is a new way to get individuals talking. Vinyl stickers can be custom made with your band logo or life size photos of your band in action and of the band members.

What’s this new vinyl sticker material called? FotoSticks. Repositionable and reusable vinyl stickers that will not harm walls. You can stick them up just about anywhere and then take them down and move them somewhere else. Assuming that they get dirty, just has been h them off with warm water.

You could give away free and inexpensive smaller vinyl stickers while selling life size stickers to establish a promotion that funds itself.

Here are several promotional ideas:

• Give away small vinyl stickers of your band’s logo at the door

• Sell life size wall stickers of your performer in action and the members along with immense stickers of your performer logo.

• Find out where agents live and plaster their neighborhood bulletin boards and retailer windows (with permission, of course)

• Place them in jewel cases

• Put them on fan’s cars during a gig

Here are some more detailed promo ideas…

The band Brew

Thanks to Mike Larrabee for this idea, it’s great. Do you’ve a Regional micro-brewery? See about getting several cases of beer in the absence of front labels. Then establish your own label and order the design as a FotoStick. You can put them on the bottles and your audiences can buy a beer and get a free promotional sticker that can be re-stuck anywhere they like.

Steal This Sticker

Put your band stickers on bulletin boards, windows and anywhere else you dare. people might simply peel them off and use them again anywhere they want. They will not harm walls or windows.

Artist Co-Promotion

Find a wonderful musician or two and have a monthly promotion that includes a limited run of only a specified amount of stickers featuring a certain artist. When they are gone, that’s it, they are no longer available. Do this each month and you may  encourage  collecting band memorabilia and produce some buzz.

Bar Graffiti

Put your performer stickers all over the bar or club you are playing in and let the fans know that they could peel them off and keep them.

Photos of listeners with performer Members

At each concert have one of the roadies take pictures of your listeners with their favorite band members. Collect their addresses and then send them some FotoSticks a few weeks later to remind them of the night. You may be sure that they will show their friends and family. Since they are repositionable, they might put them on their notebooks or laptops to show around and then put them on their wall once they are done bragging.

Band Promotion for Musicians – performer Stickers – Internet – Distribution

Bands fail all the time. They fail, not through a lack of skill or because of a mutual decision to pursue other interests, but because of a lack of interest, performer recognition and a small fan base. This lack of interest has absolutely little to do with the band’s musical or vocal abilities; rather, it’s [...]
