Hello Roy, Howsit going. Just trying to figure out how to network and submit material here. Any direction or advise would be great! Have a wonderful Sunday. Richard
Richard, Thanks for the note and being a member. Please find some tips below. On occasion, I will post it here on my comments page. Read back through the pages here and you may find suggestions from other members as well.....Best of luck, Roy 1.) Get involved in reviewing. Top 10s on Broadjam provide good exposure and to qualify for them, reviewing is required. Also, listening and reviewing makes our ears keener and exposes us to other writing and producing styles. Therefore, improving our skills as writers. 2.) Connect to like artists and others as well. Not only doesn't if give you more exposure to them, your photo is on their profile and you are in touch with any updates they post. It seems that the most successful on Broadjam have hundreds of connections. I'm sure it's not true across the board, but it certainly doesn't hurt to add another connection. 3.) Listen to a lot of music. Every time you listen to a song, a link is sent to the notification page of your connections and this provides more exposure for you. 4.) Update your profile regularly as it will send notifications as well. Add a new song, photo, bio or update your news. We recommend doing this weekly. 5.) Get involved in contests, especially the 6-Pack which will begin soon. It brings lots of exposure to the participants and many friendships and collaborations have come out of this. 6.) If you have an interesting thought, contribute to the blogs. Lots of folks read and it's likely you will find others with similar thoughts. 7.) Use the comments section of Broadjam as a tool for announcements to your contact list. I wouldn't overuse it, but it is an effective way to communicate with your connections (and theirs). 8.) There are lots of other things, such as music licensing, contests, hosting, etc., that you use on the site as well. Some of these cost money, however all of the above doesn't cost anything. Put a plan together with the above tasks and update weekly, monthly, etc. It's extremely important to update your profiles regularly, not only on Broadjam, but every site that you are on. 9.) The most important thing one can do, on Broadjam or any other site, is collaborate with other artists. If you write songs with 50 other writers, you now have 50 other people pushing your music and increasing your exposure. If you look at the Top 10 songs at anytime in history, it's rare to find a song that was written by just one person. It has happened, but the greatest songs have come from songwriting teams. From a technical perspective, your name is now appearing in more search results and you therefore have more relevance to the search engines (not a huge point, but important enough to note.) More importantly, it makes us all stretch when we write with someone new.
Thanks Roy! These are excellent tips. I have been writing and playing a long time but haven't done much promoting. I will definitly try this! Thanks again, Richard
This really helps! Thank You so much!
Richard, You are welcome and best of luck. Roy
