A few months ago we posted up a picture of the anatomy of a modern musician/music manager that showed how complex their role has become. Tom Williams (a New York based online marketer and publicist) has tried to map out the complex role that social media plays in a bands overall business strategy. What is interesting is not just the range of social media tools that you need to able to manage these days (and his diagram is by no means complete), but also how many roles each tool plays in delivering the strategy…
Tom states that the SIX goals of a social media campaign should be:
- reach more people
- keep the fans informed
- allow people to sample the music
- sell their music and merchandise
- provide content that people can pass-along to their friends
- engage the fans to keep them coming back for more
