Growing up in NYC I remember being in the clubs watching the hot girl with the clip board walk around adding names to the Mailing List. She would work the bar, work the line outside, and even bust a move and the dance floor while she filled up her list. And the artists loved her for it.

At the end of the night they had a list of highly targeted leads. Leads that have already been exposed to the product are interested in what you put out, are actively looking for more.

Building you List the absolute foundation of Network Marketing, and you have been doing it for years.

The concept is there: these people are interested in me and I want to be able to reach them and keep in touch. I am here to show you how to take that one step further and turn you list into CASH MONEY.

Street Teams are the dinosaurs of Hip-Hop.
The text you send on the way to the club or the email you send leading up the event is going to make MORE of an Impact, stay in my phone longer than any flyer you hand me, no matter how big the boobs or how juicy the booty. At the end of the night there are more flyers in the street that with your people.

An Email Auto Responder is the equivalent of your Street Team. Each time someone subscribes to your list they will receive an automatic response to that request, welcoming them in to you list.

You then create a list of emails to be sent out to this list every few days. Intersperse those messages with Broadcast messages that you have written about current or upcoming events. It the average person needs to be exposed 6 or 7 times before they make a purchase. You do this with each email automatically 24/7, while you are asleep, or in the booth, or on stage.

What am I going to write about?
Are you serious? The average rap song has over 350 words, 10 catch phrases, 40 headlines and 3 concepts. Take a look back over your music and find topics of value. How many of your songs mention your past? How rough it was growing up and how much you knew things had to get better. That is the most universally marketable story in the world.

Everyone struggles and you found a way out. You are a leader. You provide value.
By using tolls like this to leverage the power of the internet your fan base will explode. Fans will be waiting for your emails so they can learn more about you. This is the key to building an online presence.

Aweber is a great Auto responder and also the one I use. It’s is pretty much the standard. There is a small monthly fee but for the options and accessibility you are getting a deal. Other cheaper or free auto responders have some string attached….attached to ads and whole other junk that slows you down.

We need to keep operations streamlined, keep you focused. There is no time to waste. I want you making the most of every minute you spend online. In social media or working on your blog you need to get into a routine of Money Making Habits. Updating and sending broadcast messages to your list is an awesome way to spend time online, and work that writing muscle, instead of so much WorldStar. (no disrespect )

The Auto Responder is the equivalent of your Street Team, but on steroids.  Instead of posting flyers and pushing your CD on street corners you have strategic sales funnel in place that positions you as a leader and provide Value to the Marketplace.   It runs all night every night and never complains that their feet hurt.

Each time someone subscribes to your list they will receive an automatic response to that request, welcoming them in to you list.

You then create a list of emails to be sent out to this list every few days.  Intersperse those messages with broadcast messages that you have written about current or upcoming events. The average person needs to be exposed 6 or 7 times before they make a purchase.  You do this with each email.

Online systems like Aweber and Get Response allow you to separate messages by several days, manipulate multiple lists and build a database.

What am I going to write about?

Are you serious?  You write for a living.  The average rap song has over 450 words, 10 catch phrases, 40 headlines, and 3 concepts.  If you can take a look back over your music you will find topics of value.

Now all you need to do is highlight a common problem.

How many of your songs mention your past?   How rough it was growing up and how much you knew things had to get better.  That is the most universally marketable story ever told.

You have endured the pain and struggle.  You found a way out.  You are a leader.  You provide value.

Un-signed, Independent, Underground, Self-Promoted whatever you want to call it…. Non Mega-Record Deal Having Artists
this is for You!

Let’s face it.  The most important element to your career as an Artist is your connection to the fans.  You are a Network Marketer, and Just like in ANY Network Marketing building a business online, your success will be relative to the impact that you make as a person.  The relationships that you build and the connection people feel with You not the business or product that you are promoting is what will define your profits.

There is a joke that goes around about a guy names Frank.  Well a jerk named Frank to be more exact.  Frank is at a party and every time he meets someone new he immediately fires off about his incredible business opportunity that you just have to get in on RIGHT NOW.  He pukes all of them.

There is a right way and there is a wrong way to do this.  Don’t be like Frank.

Example
I think you are all familiar with a popular site named MySpace. You should, because so many of you bombard my in-box with bulletins and flier-comments.  (ooh, my fav.)  They are usually sent in 5 minute increments at 2 am.  I swear those things are worth about as much as ALL of the flyers left on the street in front of your last gig….poop.

My Space is still an incredible tool.  And word around the online network marketing water cooler is that the platform is really only good for one market. It’s Music.   So it’s time to swoop in and make a killing young people.

Most un-signed recording artists that I come in contact with are Super- Pro’s as MySpace and there are simple steps that you can take to change your perspective on how you spend your time online.

Learn how to maximize your time on MySpace, Facebook,  Twitter all the other thousands of Social Media sites that you Ping out to.

I think by now we can all agree that there is soooooooo much more to your Online Music Career than just downloads and record sales.  What we’ve done inside this system is allow YOU to market EXACTLY like the top earners do.

They brand themselves and they own their own marketing system, period.
