Faceboook thumbUPDATE: My apologies, I'm now convinced that this hack does not work as described. You've spent countless hours building your community on Facebook only to have the social net change its algorithm and gut the reach of your posts.  You could use a widgets to ask for email addresses or you can try this simple hack.
  1. Facebook-musicGo to "Yahoo.mail – sign up"
  2. Right after signup , you will be offered the option to import contacts from Facebook. Do it.
  3. After the contacts are imported, click "Skip setup"
  4. Enter "Contacts"and you see all the email addresses

This netted the folks at GrowthHackingIdea the email addresses of 80% of their Facebook followers.

TIP:  Make your first email to these addresses an invite to sign up or at least add a prominent "Opt Out."  If you do not,you will likely be in violation of your email provider's "Terms and Conditions."  Adding an incentive, like a free download, will greatly increase your "Opt Ins."

Try out this hack and let us know how it worked for you. What are your favorite music business hacks?
