What's Going On

HEY EVERYONE!!

EVERYONE= Artists (all genres), Producers, Bands, DJ’s, Radio Stations, Photographers, Graphic Designers, Fashion Designers, Dancers, Athletes, Club Promoters, Company Administrators, Record Labels, Studios, Directors, and the list goes onnnnn…

I HAVE NEWS JUST FOR YOU!

>>>>>YES, YOU MAY HAVE HEARD LABELS & RELATED INDUSTRIES ARE NOT WHAT THEY USE TO BE! Before technology (internet, cell phones, iPod, emails) came big markets/ industries relied upon TV commercials, Billboards, news stations, radio est. that are currently loosing targeted audiences meaning they are struggling more than ever before. Just think how many hours do you watch TV, or listen to the radio?? The answer is probably not as much as you did, as a kid! Bringing me to my next point…

The “old” way brought them all the attention and sales they needed to succeed. All of which still do work BUT not in the same ways now that social, demographic, and technological changes that have quickly taken over. Making it easier for low budget companies and peoples marketing and advertising efforts to take place. Making it hard for “larger” companies to compete with the independent and also target audiences. That’s why you see almost every company scramble to: create websites, do market research, and buy mailing lists; something they are new too. Leading to new and improved trends such as Internet radio, blogging, and online broadcasting est.- that are faster and reach people better in the day and age. THIS IS SOMETHING WE SHOULD TAKE ADVANTAGE OF SINCE WE START HERE GIVING US THE HEAD START. I know many already have BUT are you reaching the correct or intended demographics?

IT IS HIGH TIME WE DO IT OUR SELVES, TILL THEY (labels and desired companies) COME CRAWLING TO YOU~ HOOKEDUPB CAN HELP~ PUBLICITY IS KEY! HOOKEDUPB HAS FOR THE PAST YEAR DEVOTED TIME AND EFFORT INTO THIS TREND- IN RELATION TO INDIE ART FROMS- FOR THE “EVERYONES” INCLUDED ABOVE!

HOOKEDUPB NOW OFFER’s THIS:

What I can do:

HOOKEDUPB can bring online attention (more video hits, downloads, exposure to other artists, attention to possible fans, live performances and radio) to indie artists, and bands of all genres. The main industries are in hip-hop and rock markets in the GTA but not limited to (has connections through out Canada, US and Jamaica). Every transaction is customized to suite the artist/ band.

Serious requests only, and HOOKEDUPB has a limited capacity for 1 month period.

How I do it:

Through networking, targeting demographics, charisma and heavy promotion on community networking sites for a term negotiated usually 1 month. Using status updates, newsletters, blog but it’s not a blog it’s just called that, HOOKEDUPB cover picture, and group, adding artists/ band, links/ contact info.

How much it costs:

>Promotion for videos, tracks, downloads, will be added to HOOKEDUPB promo picture for the month- 1-month is only $20!

>Posting ads is only $20

>Interviews in person includes photo’s, introduction, will be added to HOOKEDUPB cover picture of the month, and 5-8 questions promoted for 1 month is only $50!

>Event coverage or behind the scenes is only $50 (depending on the number of pictures) promoted for 1 month, and also added to HOOKEDUPB cover picture of the month!

The latter two are good forever and can be posted on artist/ band sites.

HOOKEDUPB, 1-YEAR STRONG!!

PORTFOLIO INCLUDES:

INTERVIEWS, BEHIND THE SCENES, ADS, NEWS RELEASES, PICTURE ALBUMS, ARTICLES, COVERED EVENTS, EVENT LISTINGS, POSTING MUSIC, COLUMNS + +
