Mejores Prácticas

• •Lead with the Artist: Always put the band's name first. The primary draw for customers is the artist, not the store. The brand's role is to amplify the artist.
• •Keep it Simple and Direct: Use clear, concise language. Avoid corporate jargon or overly creative marketing-speak. The tone should be as direct and authentic as the music scene it represents.
• •Use Relevant Hashtags and Tags: On social media, tag the bands and use specific genre-related hashtags (e.g., #postpunk, #midwestemo, #indie) to connect with the target audience.
• •Emphasize Support and Authenticity: Frame purchases as a way to directly support independent artists. Use phrases like "Official band merch," "Support the band," or "All profits go to the artist."
• •Maintain a Consistent, Minimalist Visual Identity: The copy is part of the overall presentation. Straightforward, product-focused copy should be paired with clean, unpretentious visuals.

Percepción Social

Niche and specific, functional and transactional, with a lack of mainstream recognition outside of specific music fanbases. Its reputation is tied to the credibility and appeal of the artists it hosts.
