We need YOUR help to do this!

Let's face it: a band is only as successful as its listeners make it. We love what we do, and we never want to do anything else besides write, record, and perform our music all over the world. But we can't be a band without your continued interest and support.

Now we realize there are many of you who are interested in what we're doing, but may not know what you can do to help. If you like what we're doing, here are some things you can do to help us continue to do what we're doing:

1. First, we know that in general, word-of-mouth advertising means FAR MORE to people than any kind of advertisement, billboard, commercial, etc. Besides, all of those things are much more expensive, too. If I was hanging out with one of my friends and they said, "hey, why don't you come downtown with me on Saturday to hear this band, they're really unique," there's about a 85% chance I'm going to do it if there's nothing else happening in my life that night. On the contrary, if I saw a print ad in a Weekly Entertainment Guide for a band coming to town this Saturday, there's probably something like a 0.6% chance I would go see them. Those are some REALLY eye-opening numbers. So, in order for us to reach new people, we're continually touring and showing them what we do, and generating new interest. But YOU can help us IMMENSELY by telling your friends and coworkers, "Hey, why don't you go to this concert with me?"
2. Next, you can buy our music and share it with your friends and family. You can download all of our music either here at our website, or on almost ALL major music download sites like iTunes, eMusic, Rhapsody, AOL, MSN, etc. And our CDs are available here on the website as well, or on sites like Amazon.com, CDBaby.com, or by special order at your favorite mom-and-pop retailer through our one-stop distributors, Super D and CDBaby.
3. Another thing you can do is join our fanclub. We give you access to a special section of the website only for memebers, we give you new music first, we give you a special folder with all our information, detailed biographies, a photo, some cool accessories, an exclusive CD release, a DVD of the tour, a membership card, and lots more. And we give you a monthly newsletter in the mail.
4. If you're in middle school, high school, or college, suggest us to your Principal or Student/Campus Activities Director as a good band to bring to the school. You can view & email them our Electronic Press Kit to them with this link: http://www.sonicbids.com/reddingbrothers.
5. If you're in a Fraternity or a Sorority, suggest us to your chapter administrator as a good band to bring to the school for fundraisers, etc. Again, you can view & email them our Electronic Press Kit to them with this link: http://www.sonicbids.com/reddingbrothers.
6. Help us get top chart positions on Myspace, Purevolume, and iSound. Do this by adding our tracks on those sites to your favorites list or personal playlist on the site. The more people that play our music each week, the higher our chart position! NOTE: This can really help us out, guys -- the people on the top of these charts get thousands of new listeners every day!

1. On Myspace...

   1. Add us as your friend!
   2. Add our music to your personal page. This helps all your friends get to know us, but more than that -- it raises our Myspace chart position every single time someone visits your site, because the track gets played again and again. Just log in or sign up, go to myspace.com/reddingbrothers, find the song you like in our music player, and click "add" on the right hand side. You can only add one. We really appreciate you doing this -- it really helps us! Message us and let us know so we can stop by and check your page out, and say thanks personally!
   3. Add us to your TOP 8 friends when you log into your account. It's really easy -- just click on "Top Friends" down by your friends list when you first log in. This will help other people who visit your page to see us listen to our music. If you make us #1, that would be AWESOME! Message us and let us know if you do, so we can check out your page, leave you comments, and thank you personally!
   4. Go play the songs on our page every now and then, when you get a chance. We'll try to keep them new and updated, and each time you play our songs, we get a higher chart position, which means more people will learn about us. The highest places on the charts get THOUSANDS of new listeners each day, so that could really help us get to the next level.
   5. Leave us comments about songs, concerts you went to, etc.
2. On PureVolume...
   1. Add our music to your personal music player. This helps us get higher chart positions everytime you open your player and play one of our songs, and you don't even have to go to our page to listen! Simply login or sign up and go to http://www.purevolume.com/reddingbrothers, and click on the "add" button next to the songs you like. You can even add ALL of them!
   2. Add us to your friends list.
   3. Add us to your favorites list. On the top right hand corner of our page, click "add to favs".
   4. Leave us comments. On the top right hand corder, next to the "add to favs" button, click "add comnts".
   5. Play your personal music player and/or our band page music player all the time. Leave it playing instead of the radio while you're around the house. It really helps our chart positions.
3. On iSound...
1. Create a profile.
2. Add us to your friends. (The link is located just below our image on our main page at isound.)
3. Add us to your profile. (The link is located just below our image on our main page at isound.)
4. Add our songs to your personal playlist. Go to isound.com/redding_brothers, click on each song in our player one at a time and click the "add to station" button. A window will pop up after each add confirming it, which you can close and then click on the next song and do the same thing. This will help our chart positions as well!
5. Play our songs to drive up our chart position
7. Make sure your ReddingBrothers.com profile has all the correct information including email (for updates), cell phone (for test message tourdate notifications), home phone (for automated recorded messages), mailing address (for postcards from us), birthdate, and myspace user ID (so we can add you as a friend). This way you'll stay up to date.
8. Use the "Tell A Friend" feature in the "FORUM/INTERACT" menu on our site to let all your friends know about us. Everyone likes to try something new every now and then!
9. Send eCards to your whole address book.
10. Start a local street team. For those of you who are VERY dedicated, we can help you start a local street team at your school, on your college campus, in your town, etc. Then when we come to your town, we'll send you all the marketing materials and you help spread the word. For helping us out, you usually get backstage passes or sometimes even free tickets!
