Best ways to use twitter to market your music online

Twitter this tweet that twitter is more than a place to just update your friends in on what you
are about to eat dinner. For those that are inclined twitter has become a marketplace for
smart music marketers. Besides all of the major celebrities who already know the power of it.
Independent artist and record labels have a awesome opportunity to make a killing on twitter.
The world of twitter allows anyone who is savvy enough to succeed in the market they want
to.


Twitter is all about relationship building, and being able to connect with like minded fans. If
you as the independent artist use that to your advantage you are way ahead of your peers. If
you are like most independent artist or lables you are wearing all of the hats in your busienss.
You are the artist, the manager, business manager, the entertainment attorney, the street
team, the promoter, the accountant, and everything else in your company. This is not entirely
a bad thing but with so much on your agenda there is no way you will have all the time you
need to concentrate on any one particular thing.


That is why you have to recognize in any venture especially the music business it comes
down to making sells. If you don’t make a sell none of the other aspects of your business can
function. You need cash flow to manage every part of your enterprises. If you got into the
business to do everything for nothing then you must be a really selfless individual. Although
you may be a really nice individual I doubt you got into the business to work for free. With
that in mind I will assume that you want to prosper otherwise you would not be looking for
information on how to promote yourself online.


Twitter does give you the savvy business person a chance to spread your message for free.
The only thing is most independent artists are absolutely doing it wrong and that is why most
never see good results. It is all about keeping your fans engaged in what you are doing.
Believe it or not most people just want to be part of something. They admire artist of all
genres especially those who perform, because they know they do not have the gull to do it
themselves. I know some folks are not going to like what I just said but it is true. They admire
your courage, and ambition to do something they could only dream of doing.


Although they admire what you do if they do not have a relationship with you they are not
going to buy anything from you. This is the reason you need to make sure not only that your
music is great, but that you are engaging and approachable because even the most
successful artist know that without your fans and customers you would have no business.
They are the reason that if you ever make any money at all, they are technically the ones
who gave it to you. So keep that in mind always.


Treat your twitter followers like friends and they will spread the word about your music. Treat
them like you don’t need them and the opposite will happen they will spread the word about
you so fast that your reputation will be shot and you will not be able to recover.
You do this for a few reasons but really you do it to see what they are doing and what is
succeeding for them. You want to know how often they are tweeting. How many followers
they have and are gathering over the span of a week or so.So you can copy what they are
doing. They already have what you want so use them to help your success.


The most successful artist rather independent or not stay in contact at least 3-8 times a day
on twitter. If you want to get your name out there even more you should be on twitter even
more and posting 10-15 a day. Don’t be a stalker but give people information about you and
a reason to want to follow you. People love interesting artist and if you are interesting then
how will they know if you don’t show them. You need to post links to your artist website
where you have your artist bio. You need to post links to your YouTube videos showing you
on stage. If you are not a performer don’t worry about that but you still need to create videos
showing who you are, and what you can do to give them a sense of who you really are.


It is really simple people would rather buy something from someone they know then
someone they do not. My Music Marketermake money selling your music
