Fanbridge.com: Fan list Management You Can’t Live Without

0

Let’s start with a little back story. I was using a free newsletter service at http://stancrawford.com to manage our fan subscriptions and monthly newsletters. At this time our fan list was only about 50 strong. After a few months went by I realized that over half of our fan list were not receiving the monthly newsletter we send. Imagine spending time putting together your newsletter and then realizing that your subscribers (who are actually interested in what you are saying) do not receive it? It was a complete let down. Over the next few months our fan list subscription grew from 50 to almost 400. It was (and still is) a great feeling to see the fans take part in our music project. But, I still had the same problem. What if all of our subscribers were not receiving our newsletter? This is where Fanbridge.com came in.

FanBridge is the world’s leading provider of FREE easy to use email and mobile fan list management solutions designed specifically for bands and musicians. Fanbridge.com really saved the day for us. Within about 30 minutes I imported ALL of our newsletter subscribers to Fanbridge.com (almost 400). I was a little shocked about how easy it was to do. The best part about it was that they are free AND they check your messages for SPAM content to ensure that your subscribers are receiving each eMail! They allow you to send 400 messages per month with no fee what-so-ever. They also have paid subscription options to allow you to send more messages based on your subscription size. I am going to list some benefits below of what Fanbridge has to offer. Our band rarely does this but we put our stamp of approval for anyone to use their service.
