I just wanted to take a moment to alert you to an enhanced service that we
have just implemented.
Soul-Patrol Times Version 2.0
http://www.soul-patrol.com/magazine
Mike had developed some additional software capabilities that now enable us
to send out these same listings via email, automaticly at 12am every
Wendsday, every week to all 35,000 Soul-Patrol Newsletter Subscribers. Your
probably noticed that you got one of these last week? All of the listings
that we sent out last Wendsday came from there. We will be sending those
listings out weekly each Wendsday night from now on. In addition to email
distribution, the same listings are also distributed/displayed via the
Soul-Patrol website (www.soul-patrol.com) on the scrolling calendar and also
straight to subscribers desktops via Soul-Patrol's RSS feed.
You may recall that last summer we introduced the Soul-Patrol Times
Announcement Service.
- This was created to enable what we call "small advertisers" to have a
presence on the Soul-Patrol Website at a VERY CHEAP rate (10-30/month).
- Mike developed software that would enable people who wanted to advertise
on the the website in either a "self service or full service mode".
- The whole idea was that you would post your ad for any sort of "time
driven event" (CD Release, website/blog update, concert/club date, book
signing, party, etc.) and your posting about that "time driven event" would
automaticly appear on the Soul-Patrol website, thus exposing your
information to whomever surfs by. Your ad can include graphics, links to
websites, sound/video files, internet radio, contact information, in short
whatever information and or direction that you want to give to folks who
visit the Soul-Patrol Website.
Now we have the capability to distribute these "small ads" in the following
manner:
- Weekly to all 35,000 Soul-Patrol Newsletter Subscribers
- Real Time via the Soul-Patrol Website
- Real Time via the Soul-Patrol RSS Feed
It's now a fully AUTOMATED system from payment to information distribution.
Here is where you sign up
http://www.soul-patrol.com/magazine
- Note the prices are still the same if you make an automated payment
(credit or debit card) and you can begin using the service immediatly
(within 24 hours)
- If you want to make a manual payment (check/money order) the service
charge is now increased $25.00, plus you will have to wait till 5 days after
your check clears, before you can start using the service.
** A 20% DISCOUNT IS APPLIED IF YOU SIGN UP FOR A FULL YEAR
We are trying to maxmize the distribution of this type of information from
record companies, promoters, venues, indy artists, broadcasters, etc to
Soul-Patrol's audience.
*** You are a record label, with new CD's/DVD's or other products that you
would like to make Soul-Patrol's audience aware of.
*** You are a publicist, with updates about artists, CD's/DVD's or other
products that you would like to make Soul-Patrol's audience aware of.
*** You are a Booking Agency, Venue Operator, Concert Promoter, Festival
Organizer, etc. with a tour schedule/live event involving multiple artists
that you would like to make Soul-Patrol's audience aware of.
*** You are an independent artist with new CD's/DVD's or with upcoming shows
that you would like to make Soul-Patrol's audience aware of.
*** You are an author with a new book and/or an upcoming book tour that you
would like to make Soul-Patrol's audience aware of.
*** You are holding a cultural/musical event of any type (a meeting, a play,
a conference, exhibit, street fair, etc) and you would like to make
Soul-Patrol's audience aware of it.
*** You are an Online Retailer (ex: online record store, clothing retailer,
arts & crafts, travel, etc) and you would like to make Soul-Patrol's
audience aware of new product launches, sale items, special deals, etc..
*** You host a Radio/TV show (music, talk, etc), which is streamed on the
Internet, and you would like to make Soul-Patrol's audience aware of it.
*** You are an artist who has been "out of circulation" for a while and you
want to let Soul-Patrol's audience of your current availability.
*** You own a website and you want to let Soul-Patrol's audience know that
you have just added some new content.
etc.
If you fall into these categories or something similar, then this program
will work for you and be a cost effective way of publicizing your activities
to Soul-Patrol's audience. I would suggest that you sign up for our
Soul-Patrol Times Announcement Service at:
