Now, do some marketing work
Adding a Bizmo does not mean that you can just upload tracks and then sit back and wait for fame to come knocking on your door. You need to get out there into the market. Here are a few pointers on how to do it:
- No matter how good your track is it is only a single, and that's not enough to keep fans interested, or to keep you in guitar strings and computers. You should be selling everything you have (merchandise, tickets, lyrics, screensavers, ring tones etc.)
- Email all your hardcore fans and get them to embed your bizmo on their various pages. Read about resellers at www.thebizmo.com/wp/products/resellers DO NOT SPAM ANYONE EVER. It does not work, and it is a waste of your time. Just email the people you know want to hear from you. When you send an update you can embed the bizmo with the update.
- Send your bizmo to individual fans. When sending a mail via Facebook email you can Attach your bizmo to the email. The add option will always be right below the message as you compose it.
- Go to an individual fan page and post your bizmo onto the page, asking the fan and their friends to buy specific products from you. You can use the Facebook publisher tool on the fans wall to do this.
