#275 - Tips When Using ‘X’ As A Musician
Optimise Your Profile
Use a high-quality image, preferably your logo or a professional photo as your profile picture. In your bio include your genre, what you do, and a link to your latest music or website. Tie in the header image with your branding and profile picture - consistency is key!
Be Consistent
Post regularly to stay active in your followers' feeds. Aim for a mix of content: updates, behind-the-scenes, promotional posts, and engagement with fans. Maintain a consistent tone that reflects your brand. Whether it’s humorous, serious, or laid-back, consistency helps build your persona. While promoting your music is crucial, mixing in personal tweets, thoughts on current events, or casual interactions keeps your feed relatable and engaging.
Engage with Fans
Engage with fans by replying to their comments and messages. Encourage interaction by asking your audience questions, whether about your music or their interests. Retweet fan posts or tweets where they mention your music or shows.
Visual Content
Share photos from gigs, studio sessions, or music video shoots. Videos of performances or behind-the-scenes clips are especially engaging. Use memes to add personality and humour to your feed, making your content more shareable.
Network with Other Musicians
Retweet and comment on other musicians’ posts, especially those in your genre. Participate in music-related Twitter chats to connect with like-minded artists and industry professionals.
