New repositionable vinyl stickers offer artists some great new promotional tools.

Promoting your performer with vinyl stickers is a new way to get people talking. Vinyl stickers can be custom made with your performer logo or life size photos of your performer in action and of the performer members.

What’s this new vinyl sticker material called? FotoSticks. Repositionable and reusable vinyl stickers that will not harm walls. You could stick them up just about anywhere and then take them down and move them somewhere else. If they get dirty, just has been h them off with warm water.

You could give away free and inexpensive smaller vinyl stickers while selling life size stickers to produce a promotion that funds itself.

Here are several promotional ideas:

• Give away small vinyl stickers of your band’s logo at the door

• Sell life size wall stickers of your performer in action and the members along with very large stickers of your performer logo.

• Locate out where agents live and plaster their neighborhood bulletin boards and retailer windows (with permission, of course)

• Place them in jewel cases

• Put them on fan’s cars during a gig

Here are some more detailed promo ideas…

The band Brew

Thanks to Mike Larrabee for this idea, it’s great. Do you have a Local micro-brewery? See about getting a few cases of beer without front labels. Then establish your own label and order the design as a FotoStick. You could put them on the bottles and your fans could buy a beer and get a free promotional sticker that can be re-stuck anywhere they like.

Steal This Sticker

Put your performer stickers on bulletin boards, windows and anywhere else you dare. people might simply peel them off and use them again anywhere they want. They won’t harm walls or windows.

Artist Co-Promotion

Locate a nice artist or two and have a monthly promotion that includes a limited run of only a specified amount of stickers featuring a certain artist. When they are gone, that’s it, they are no longer available. Do this each month and you might  promote  collecting performer memorabilia and create some buzz.

Bar Graffiti

Put your performer stickers all over the bar or venue you’re playing in and let the audiences know that they can peel them off and keep them.

Photos of fans with performer Members

At each performance have one of the roadies take pictures of your listeners with their preferred performer members. Collect their addresses and then send them some FotoSticks a few weeks later to remind them of the night. You can be sure that they will show their friends and family. Since they’re repositionable, they can put them on their notebooks or laptops to show around and then put them on their wall once they’re done bragging.
