Ideas on Maximizing Your Twitter Promotions - an essay from Joe Viglione

Airplay on every station is something to savor and promote.  Don't let it go to waste.

 

Twitter has daily hashtags that seem to trend. #MondayMotivation #Thuesdayvibes etc. for each day, and multiple ones.

Some Twitter user re-tweets the Motivation ones, so add them to your Tweet, especially when you time stamp your airplay.  This morning at 3 am my track from the Anthology Chapter 21 was aired on Lonely Oak Radio.  

 

a)Notice how I put some of the record labels that I have been on in the # hashtags.

 

b)I am tagging my own photos from the years 1, 2, 3, 4...and will be adding them to keep the Tweets fresh and eye-catching.

  Note the time and date stamp.  Instead of spelling out the day I use Thursday Motivation or Thursday Thoughts via hashtag, then I post the SPOTIFY and some SPOTIFY Twitter addresses, and the distributor, DistroKid

The song drops from Distrokid to Spotify in 8 more days, we are building the excitement in a low-key way but modeling what Amazon does with Coming 2 America, the film landing March 5.
