Sometimes an idea comes along that it is really cool and
lets the general public get involved in something ike the
music industry. In this case it is PromoSquad
a very cool online marketing research site for the music
industry.
PromoSquad
is an online jukebox and music portal which plays music
tailored to your tastes and then asks you to rate it. Every
time you rate the music you get points. The points can be
used to claim some very cool prizes, like CD's compter equipment,
photographs and more.
The concept was started by a group of ex music industry
executives, marketing people and radio station people who
wanted a way for everyone wo downloaded music online to
have a say in what is hot in the music industry.
It's easy to join and best of all it's totally free!
It did take a couple of minutes to actually join up and
use the system, I first had to answer some questions about
some music clips they played, then rate the music. But after
that it was really easy to use and start earning points
straight away!
The way it works is really simple. You choose Jukebox and
a new window opens up where a song is played - I noticed
that each song played at least twice, at the end of the
song you have to rate the song along the lines of Hate it
to Love it , then enter some sort of quick comment or review.
You get five points for every song reviewed, it is just
too easy! Also a lot of the songs they play are either still
to be released music or stuff that is just being tested
with the market. So you get to hear some stuff that isn't
even in the stores or on the radio yet!
So get your mouses clicking turn up the volume and start
earning points today - I am!
