Bandsintown’s ambition is to equip artists of all sizes with the tools to leverage reach on Bandsintown, artist websites and artist socials to create a comprehensive tour marketing campaign via Bandsintown for Artists. By doing so, artists can better engage their fans to strengthen their conversion funnel and capture data at scale throughout ticketing cycle.Artists face a range of marketing challenges. They see significant traffic to their own properties but have difficulty capturing core fan data. Part of the artists marketing strategy is to announce ahead of time – Artists are running into issues letting fans know the exact moment when tickets go on sale. Throughout the ticketing cycle artists are leveraging Instagram ineffectively to drive ticket sales. They are missing out on data capture, retargeting opportunities and strengthening in the conversion funnel.Bandsintown VIP Club is the culmination of our ambition. This exclusive co-marketing program that leverages our approach to data, engagement and activation across the Bandsintown platform. Utilizing Artist’s socials and the Artist’s owned properties to drive a comprehensive marketing campaign to sell more tickets to promote new music and increase fan engagement.
Announcing a tour is as exciting for an artist as it is for their dedicated fanbase. When you join forces with Bandsintown to share the news about the run using our dedicated email campaigns and your Events Landing Page across socials, followers will convert into trackers, who you can re-engage later about album releases, merchandise, anything you want!
