300 Supporters

What's an entertainer without supporters?

One of the goals we talked about as a group is getting back to performing. Doing shows, being requested to do shows, getting paid to do shows. Performers need that platform to entertain people, whether doing shows at local spots, or doing shows at the phone booth (Verizon Center) Wow what would that be like. We all have been to concerts to see our favorite artist perform some of their latest hits. It's an experience to be around 100 or 10,000 people partying to the same music. Any performer or entertainer knows it's their job to reach those people using their talents, and skills to bring happiness to the people who took time out to support.

Even though, yes we may have supporters from the beginning either family or friends. We know that's not enough.  Now we have a big family that extends across the DMV, but we can't depend on family coming to support us at ever show. As a manager, I know if I wanted to set a show for the group I need to be able to SELL Capital Tyzz to either a promoter or bar/club manager on why he should allow us to perform at there venue.  And as we all know money rules. Are we going to be able to bring people into the spot? To the bar to spend money? What is the establishment going to get from allowing us to perform? If nothing then most likely we wont be performing at to many spots. 

Now what does it take to gain supporters? Well I don't have all the answer but common sense will tell me we need to build some type of reputation in the area we are from before we can expand our reach.  That's why I brought up the point to the group that by next summer we should work to have 300 supporters outside of our circle. "I Need To Be Able To SELL Yall".  "Yall have performed before in front of smaller groups, but we need to work to take this next step".  People have to have a connection with your business before they feel like it's something they want to support.  Then if they do come out to support, they need to be entertained so that they continue to support. Quality, Quality, Quality, is what I have preached to the group from the beginning. 

Me, I'm still learning on how to keep track of our supporters. So hopefully by next summer I'll be posting a blog with pictures and video of our show packed with people coming out to support us. And we'll make sure we are ready to put on a show that will help us build on top of that support.

 New Single Coming Soon, Stay Tuned...............
