How to use Free Beats to promote your website
Giving away free beats sounds like you’re giving away money, but that’s not necessarily true. Giving away a free heartbeat is the same idea makeup companies have when they give away free samples. It allows them to use the product to test it, use it in their everyday life, and establish a personal connection with it over time. The hope is that the user will come back for more because they realize they really enjoy using that product and want to use it full time. There are three things to remember when giving free beats.
Get your email
If you’re giving away free beats, you should get something in return. It is very easy these days to get an email program that collects email addresses of users and automatically sends emails to them once they have confirmed their subscription. This is a great way to bring together people who are already in love with your product and stay in touch with them. Relationships build trust and trust builds sales. Trust is the number one key to getting people to buy from you. Stay in touch with these free beat customers. You never know when one of them might become a buyer.
Like on Facebook
A big step that I have found in promoting my site is through Facebook likes. Whenever a user likes your page on Facebook, it is shown in their status. That’s free advertising just with a Facebook like. The trick is, as long as you email the user with the free beat links, turn that page into a Facebook tab. A Facebook reveal tab will only allow users to see the links if they like your fan page. This is an easy way to get users to like your page without having to do anything more than route them correctly.
Make sales
Receiving customer emails and Facebook likes is just one way to stay in touch with potential customers who already want your product. Getting them to trust you is the most important factor when it comes to selling beats. Make sure you have a strong online presence and that you keep in touch with your people and email them regularly. Run special offers and contests to give your users an interaction that will eventually build relationships. These relationships will turn into profits. Make sure you post new content on a regular basis and become an authority in your field.
Social lockers
This is one of the newer tactics online website owners use to increase their exposure on social media. Basically, a social locker blocks the content until the user shares or likes the page. The good thing for you is that people want your beats. Use it to your advantage. Use the social locker for your free beats. I get over 50 shares a day from people who want my beats and will share or like the page just to get them. The trick is to have a way for users to play the beats without being able to download them, that way you can block them until the user shares them.
