Rosenberg, TX (Top40 Charts/ Spotlight Portfolios) - How do you ensure the success of a million dollar, one-time event featuring some of country music's brightest stars, including Gretchen Wilson, Stoney LaRue, Randy Rogers Band, and Colt Ford? If you ask the Southern Concert Group (SCG), a fresh-faced music event promotion company, the answer is "social media, of course." SCG has tapped Social Ad Marketing (SAM) creators netSpray (also known as In the Spotlight Marketing) to promote the County
Music Jam, a New Year's Eve party to be held December 31 at the Fort Bend County Fairgrounds in Rosenburg, TX.
In addition to the use of social networks Facebook and Twitter, netSpray plans to use their proprietary Social Ad Marketing widget to help sell event tickets. The social media service provider uses a variety of tools from their proverbial bag of tricks including their proprietary social ad widget, contests, giveaways and similar social network focused practices and services (i.e. SEO, Linkbuilding, Digital Public Relations and Email Marketing services).
Using a combination of social media and social concern, netSpray has provided SCG with a roadmap to online promotional success. By using the connections friends have through social networks, netSpray is providing event attendees with the opportunity to support a socially-minded cause while having fun.
Riley's Toys Foundation is a non-profit that works to collect new and gently used toys for orphaned and refugee children in Africa. Together with logistics partner WorldVision they send those collected toys to children in areas throughout Africa such as Darfur and Zambia. Through the netSpray branded Spotlight Portfolio event page, attendees to the County Music Jam are encouraged to bring a packaged stuffed animal or soccer ball in support of the non-profit. When they do, they'll receive a free beverage ticket to use at the concert.
