Episode 13

Thanks for swinging by this episode! This week I’m taking a look at a few things you can do to make your shows more enjoyable and memorable for your fans so that they tell their friends and have better chances of showing up at your next gig.

We all want our shows to be memorable but if you don’t take the time to think out how you want the experience to be for your fans then you could be missing out on some key elements.

Making sure the people who come to see you have a good time is key in word of mouth advertising because if they have a great time then they are likely to tell others about it. Over time this builds for you and you’ll be adding more and more people to your shows.

So today we’re putting the fans first and looking at it from their perspective. Where do they want to go? Who do they want to see play with you? How much can they spend? We’re taking a look at all these things.
