It’s all about the fans.

The music comes first, but it’s the fans that make it all possible. Use SMS text messaging to connect to your fans directly and instantly. See how you can use the Pushr system to make your fans go wild, even when you’re not around.

Fan Engagement

Fans love to hear from their favorite bands. The more “insider” the better. Give your fans a “Backstage Pass” and send “exclusive messages directly from band members” straight to your fans’ phones and watch fan loyalty skyrocket.

Boost Attendance

Ticket sales looking a little light the day of a show? Since 90% of text messages are viewed within 15 minutes, you can drive new ticket sales all the way up to showtime. Tell your fans to “bring a friend” for a buy-one get-one-free drink special or quickly put together a “meet and greet” contest to get people motivated to come out.

Drive Merch & Ticket Sales

Merch is where the money is, so it’s time to do a bit more than just tell fans to “buy our CD” while you’re on stage. Send a “secret passcode” to your SMS subscribers that gets them 10% off your highest margin items. Better yet, tell people to sign up and at the end of the night they’ll get a code for 20% off, making sure everyone sticks around for your set.

Location, Location, Location

With Pushr’s two-way messaging system, you can survey your fans to find out their zip codes (or anything else for that matter). Once  you know this, it’s simple to target messages to increase attendance or organize your street team while on tour.

Live Event Integration

Give your fans what they want. Literally. Have your fans text in song requests before or during a show. Check your incoming messages in the Pushr system, and give your fans exactly what they want.

More advanced integrations such as live text-to-screen and moderated interactions are also possible. Get in touch to explore the possibilities of live fan interaction at your shows.

Direct, Instant Communication

Open rates for SMS text messages are consistently above 90%, some say as high as 98%. And most people’s cell phone is never more than four feet away from them. Meanwhile, email marketers throw a party when their open rates rise above 20%! Heck, SMS response rates are typically over 30%!

Real Phone Numbers. Real People.

Since Pushr uses real phone numbers, not limited and expensive shortcodes, you can use your dedicated phone number to set up a “fan hotline” where you can record one-way outgoing messages or even collect voice mail messages from your fans. The possibilities are endless, and your fans will love it.
