Madalyn's Music Biz Blog

It's amazing how the Internet and new technologies have invaded our everyday lives. Some people complain about it but I embrace it. Okay I admit it, I'm a techie. I'm always looking for ways to improve my marketing efforts.

Now you can reach your fans via text messages!

I love this. It's a great way to stay connected. Yes, you still want to utilize your web site, mailing list, email list, myspace marketing, etc. But now you can add another great tool to your arsenal and that is FREE mobile text messaging.



I have been using this service for awhile now and love it. The company is called Mozes and what they do is offer a FREE service that allows you to connect with your fans. I encourage you to check out this web site and explore the possibilities!

You can sign up for my FREE motivational text messages by texting MOTIVATE to 66937. It's that easy!

Bands, sign up for your FREE keyword and start texting your fans!

Coming up next month is one of my favorites, the Dewey Beach Music Conference. There will be so many great opportunities to meet and network with lots of great industry people. But what do you need to do to prepare?

There are lots of things:

*Load up on business cards and CDs.
*Have pen/paper to take notes
*Bring flyers about your show & don't be afraid to pass them out
*Show up with a positive attitude
*SMILE - it will make a huge difference

I have two great resources available in the GoGirls Music Store that can help:

Music Conference Teleseminar Panel
Earlier this year I hosted a Music Conference Panel featuring Allie Shaw (Hyperactive), Angie DeVore (Dfest) and Vikki Walls (Dewey Beach). They dished out lots of information and advice on music conferences. Including a Q&A session with the audience!

Check out this teleseminar call and learn how to make the most of a music conference!



Using Myspace to...
create a buzz @ a music conference
In this e-Booklet I'll show you how to use Myspace to get attention at a music conference! I talk about image & branding as well as useful tips before, during & after the conference.

I also provide Myspace page examples plus details on how to track friend requests. You'll learn valuable tools in this e-Booklet!
