PR and Marketing

In order to sell records, the public must find out that the band and record exist. This calls for PR and marketing. PR is the attention the band receive without paying for it, for instance through concerts, interviews, reviews et c. Marketing is all activities you pay for to give the band attention, such as adverts in newspapers and window displays in Record Store.


Mass Media/Record Store
In this case we will describe all media (TV24, Radio FM, City News, and Zer0 Magazine) and Record Store together, since they function similarly. Enter any of these buildings to create som hype for your band.
  Reporter
The reporter greets you as you enter. What he or she thinks about you and your band can be told by their facial expression and what they say. The better they like you, the happier they will be to see you.

Comment
A description of this medium's characteristics. Use this information to plan your marketing.

Press Kit
Record and information material. Without this, the reporter can't do anything for you. When they receive a press kit they will listen to the record and make up their minds about the song and the band. Every reporter has their own preferences and the better your band and song fits the reporter's taste, the more positive they will be.

Gifts
Give the reporter presents to make him or her more positive to your band. Be advised that some reporters might be offended by gifts because they see them as bribes.

Advertisements/Sales

Buy ad space. Every medium has different kinds of adverts to choose from and you can also decide how many days in a row the ad will be published. Click the pages right of the advert type and number of days respectively to set this. Plan the advert in the scheduler by moving the bar to the desired date. The more money spent, the more efficient the advert. If you buy ads the reporter will be more positive towards you.

Billboard
Lists where you can compare how your record is doing to other current songs.
