New repositionable vinyl stickers offer bands some excellent new promotional tools.
Promoting your band with vinyl stickers is a new way to get people talking. Vinyl stickers can be custom made with your band logo or life size photos of your band in action and of the band members.
What’s this new vinyl sticker material called? FotoSticks. Repositionable and reusable vinyl stickers that won’t harm walls. You can stick them up just about anywhere and then take them down and move them somewhere else. Assuming that they get dirty, just was h them off with warm water.
You can give away free and inexpensive smaller vinyl stickers while selling life size stickers to create a promotion that funds itself.
Here are a few promotional ideas:
• Give away small vinyl stickers of your band’s logo at the door
• Sell life size wall stickers of your band in action and the members along with very big stickers of your band logo.
• Locate out where agents live and plaster their neighborhood bulletin boards and retailer windows (with permission, of course)
• Place them in jewel cases
• Put them on fan’s cars during a gig
Here are some more detailed promo ideas…
The performer Brew
Thanks to Mike Larrabee for this idea, it’s great. Do you have a Local/Regional micro-brewery? See about getting several cases of beer without front labels. Then establish your own label and order the design as a FotoStick. You may put them on the bottles and your listeners may buy a beer and get a free promotional sticker that may be re-stuck anywhere they prefer.
Steal This Sticker
Put your band stickers on bulletin boards, windows and anywhere else you dare. people can simply peel them off and use them again anywhere they want. They will not harm walls or windows.
Artist Co-Promotion
Locate a wonderful musician or two and have a monthly promotion that includes a limited run of only a specified amount of stickers featuring a certain artist. When they are gone, that is it, they are no longer available. Do this each month and you may encourage collecting band memorabilia and produce some buzz.
Bar Graffiti
Put your performer stickers all over the bar or club you’re playing in and let the fans know that they might peel them off and keep them.
Photos of fans with band Members
At each concert have one of the roadies take pictures of your fans with their favorite performer members. Collect their addresses and then send them some FotoSticks a few weeks later to remind them of the night. You may be sure that they will show their friends and family members. Since they are repositionable, they could put them on their notebooks or laptops to show around and then put them on their wall once they are done bragging.
