It\u2019s the dedicated fans who will buy tickets to your gigs, purchase your merchandise, and will pay to stream your music.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Often referred to as the superfan, these types of fans will help your grow your reach faster than any advertising campaign, they\u2019ll tweet about you, re-post your music and encourage their friends to become superfans too.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_40515\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-40515\" style=\"width: 3861px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"40515\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/2018\/09\/heres-the-secret-to-getting-superfans\/katie-hammond\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/MG_5037_Katie-Hammond_Under-16-National-Final.jpg?fit=3861%2C2574&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"3861,2574\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Andrew Benge&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;Under 16 National Final&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1390051788&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;Andrew Benge&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Katie Hammond&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Katie Hammond\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Under 16 National Final&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/MG_5037_Katie-Hammond_Under-16-National-Final.jpg?fit=640%2C427&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"size-full wp-image-40515\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/MG_5037_Katie-Hammond_Under-16-National-Final.jpg?resize=640%2C427&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-40515\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Under 16 National Final<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Small or large, gigs are important<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Whether you\u2019re just starting out or you\u2019re already recording and selling music, you absolutely must play gigs (large or small) \u2013 no one will get to hear your music unless you put it out there!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In fact, smaller venues make it easier to interact directly with your listeners and build a relationship. Time in front of a live audience is never wasted and small venues are the perfect setting to talk to people before and after a gig. Talking to and engaging with people will help to spread the word and make them feel valued, this is the essence of being a musician and the best way to build a strong fanbase.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>The essential 4 stages<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Music is a bit like romance.

Creating awareness is a numbers game \u2014 The goal of the awareness phase is to reach as many people as possible.<br \/>\nMake your music available through as many distribution services as possible and use music discovery websites too. The Internet is a powerful tool for creating awareness.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Attraction<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 That\u2019s when your potential superfan starts recognising and liking what you do. Attraction happens after a gig, or even finding your music on a popular blog.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Somebody will either like your music or not, and little can be done about it. Your job is to increase their chances of actually listening to a full track or even a set.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Attachment<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 For artists without big marketing budgets, the awareness and attraction phases blend together. Luckily, you have the power to move your fans up to the attachment level \u2014 that\u2019s when a personal connection matters the most. A few sentences exchanged after a gig can work wonders but you can also make personal connections online.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sometimes, all it takes is replying to somebody\u2019s comment on your Instagram. Send out a tailored newsletter, or show your personality in a vlog and share it on social media.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Allegiant fans (superfans)<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 According to studies, these fans make only 2% of your whole fanbase but they drive 80% of your sales. To create superfans, connect with your fans at the attachment level as much as possible.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"40512\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/2018\/09\/heres-the-secret-to-getting-superfans\/_mg_2677_print\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/MG_2677_Print.jpg?fit=3000%2C2000&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"3000,2000\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Andrew Benge&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;Andrew Benge&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"_MG_2677_Print\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/MG_2677_Print.jpg?fit=640%2C427&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-40512\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/MG_2677_Print.jpg?resize=640%2C427&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Get some merchandise<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A fan wearing an artist\u2019s t-shirt is a walking advertisement. On top of that, people tend to form emotional attachments to objects, so if your logo adorns somebody\u2019s favourite jumper, they\u2019re likely to love you more too.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As an aspiring musician, invest in small but cleverly chosen items to promote your music. Think tote bags, shot glasses, even matchboxes \u2013 giving away some free merchandise can also be a powerful relationship builder.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If somebody recognises you from your videos or a gig, ask if you can send them a little something (a badge? A plectrum?) to show it means a lot to you. You might just create a loyal fan!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Build a community<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Focusing only on the awareness and attraction phases, you are likely to grow your social media following, but you won\u2019t create real fans.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Apart from personally connecting with your listeners at the Attachment phase, you have to, also, give them a chance to interact with one another. In other words, you have to build a community.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you already have a successful social media presence, think about starting a Facebook group where you invite only the people who have already been to your gig, bought your music or invested in some merch.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Give occasional, honest updates on your life and music (think about talking with your fans, not at them) and create a space where your fans can interact.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"40513\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/2018\/09\/heres-the-secret-to-getting-superfans\/_mg_2686_print\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/MG_2686_Print.jpg?fit=3000%2C2000&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"3000,2000\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Andrew Benge&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;Andrew Benge&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"_MG_2686_Print\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/MG_2686_Print.jpg?fit=640%2C427&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-40513\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/MG_2686_Print.jpg?resize=640%2C427&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>From Zero to Superfan<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To grow a loyal fanbase.
