Time for the Music Industry to Go B2B

While the music industry is struggling due to decreasing sales, online services are being offered that collectively co-create parts of a solution to the current troubles. It starts with a B2B network for the music industry to find services & gigs, communicate ideas, and to develop control for their artistic futures. Just recently launched out-of-beta is the keystone of this concept: NuMuBu.com.

Montrael, Canada, July 13, 2010 --(PR.com)-- NuMuBu.com, the only music industry social community dedicated to the B2B needs of the new music industry, has officially launched out-of-beta with a social sharing sweepstakes that provides music professionals and fans an opportunity to get involved and spread the word on both Facebook and Twitter for a chance to win up to $25K & one of five Apple iPads. In addition, Limelight, of RightsFlow, has thrown in a bonus for the winner: consulting worth $500.

The B2B features of NuMuBu are simply powerful. Everyone with a product or service that relates to the music industry has a profile connected to a searchable category on NuMuBu. For example an artist can use NuMuBu to network every service needed to go from concept to song and marketing to revenue. Take these examples: Artists can find everyone they need to make their music career a reality, ultimately finding gigs and contracts through networking; music marketers and instructors can stream webinars live on NuMuBu or embed the video stream on the own site; musical equipment manufacturers can list their Product Profiles and other members can find users of products they are interested in; and listeners can discover and download music while creating their radio playlist. All are interlinked in what amounts to a true music industry network.

The launch sweepstakes embraces the major way people currently communicate messages: through social sharing on Twitter and Facebook. To enter the sweepstakes, a participant shares the sweepstakes message on Twitter. Next they can share the message on their Facebook wall. Facebook sharing is optional and gives the entrant five additional chances to win. As an extra bonus, by signing up for a free account, uploading a profile picture and entering a bio, the entrant gets the free revenue-sharing membership. Fans are welcome to participate, but only music professionals are given a complimentary, one-year revenue sharing membership to NuMuBu. The sweepstakes landing page can be found here.

Clifford Schwartz, NuMuBu co-founder and president, says, “The launch sweepstakes is our way of giving back. We are committed to serving the music community as well as implementing solutions and our approach is maintaining an environment where the people that make up the music industry can co-create its future.”
