News : GigTxt Launches “Meetup” - Successfully
gigtxt writes"GigTxt has
launched a “Meetup” where Artists and Managers from Music and Arts businesses
can come together once a month and “do” something.
www.meetup.com/Melb-Music-Business-Discussion/
The first meeting
was on Feb 16, after the Music Victoria Launch at the East Brunswick Club.
The focus of the
first month was on fans (customers) and creating a relationship with them in
this modern era, looking at Social Networking, Email Lists and how to use them
effectively. The outcomes of the session will be made available on the new
GigTxt blog http://blog.gigtxt.com.au
The idea was to
come out of the session with:
-
A
“fan” profile
Therefore a
better understanding of whom your fans are, why they listen to You, over
someone else, and how best they like to be “told” about upcoming Gigs.
Why?
So your energy is
best spent on tasks and money is spent on advertising in the “right” places,
targeting the “right” people.
Ideas for topics
to cover, and “tasks” to “get done” will be open to attendees, and discussion
is available on the Meetup Site (www.meetup.com/Melb-Music-Business-Discussion/), the GigTxt Facebook (www.facebook.com/gigtxt) or Myspace
sites (www.myspace.com/gigtxt) and in the GigTxt online forum (www.gigtxt.com.au).
Next meeting is
March 9 at the GigTxt office, at the Auspicious Arts Incubator 166 Sturt St,
Southbank. 6pm
This month we
will look at creating a timeline for your career, working out where you are on
it, and where you want to get to.
The idea behind
this meet up; is to do, not to talk about doing.
So - bring your laptop, phone, and some ideas about what you want to achieve.
The idea will be to come out of the session with:
- A better understanding of where in your
artist/manager career path you are
- A better understanding of where you want to go
in your artist/manager career
To RSVP join the “Meetup” group, a small
administrative fee is all you pay, the program is sponsored by GigTxt and
supported by the Auspicious Arts Incubator."
