How to Build an Online Music Following
Growing your followers can be daunting for artists. Most social platforms require video or photo content to engage with your fans properly and grow your following, but not Turntable LIVE (tt.live). With artists' needs and limited time in mind, tt.live has developed an effortless and effective way to grow your fan base online.
How to grow your followers using tt.live
Go to tt.live and make an account. Then, you can email amanda@tt.live to get verified as an artist on Turntable.
Create your dance floor that uses your artist name or a name that your fan community is familiar with. Email amanda@tt.live if you want your dance floor featured on the front page.
Create a playlist or upload your music to tt.live.
Hop on stage :)
Make a schedule and share it with your community by making a simple graphic that you can post anywhere. Let your fans know when you will be LIVE on Turntable, and try to be consistent!
If your fans see that you are always online at times, you promise they will keep coming back for the chance to interact with you and hear what music you’re playing.
