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. |
