Brand New Service, getmebookings.com, Offers Much Needed Booking Agency Help for Musicians, Comedians and Speakers

NASHVILLE, Tenn., March 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Concert artists, comedians and speakers looking to boost their booking schedules can now find help with an innovative new service, getmebookings.com (http://www.getmebookings.com). getmebookings.com, a division of The Bazel Group, Inc., is a targeted marketing service designed for concert artists, comedians and speakers who either a) do not have professional representation, or b) need to take charge of their bookings. "We have had such great response from a test market that we know it is time to introduce getmebookings.com to help artists across the nation," says Ed Bazel, CEO of The Bazel Group, Inc.

Located on Music Row in Nashville, Tenn., The Bazel Group has 35 years of experience in the arts and entertainment industry and specializes in delivering concerts, comedians and speakers for stages and special events around the world. "Booking takes a tremendous amount of time and effort because you're competing with a slew of other performers, agents and managers who are also trying to reach the decision makers," says Bazel. "It has to be overwhelming for a performer to try and book and perform at the same time. Since we're seasoned entertainment marketing professionals, we know how to effectively hit a talent buyer with information that makes an artist stand out."

A getmebookings.com campaign begins with a customized email campaign created by an ADDY Award-winning creative director and a professional booking agent. The emails are sent from the performer's email address of choice (ex. joe@joesmith.com) to ensure that the recipients receive their contact information. This is supported by a follow-up phone call campaign from a specialized team of telephone agents, nicknamed "The Rainmakers." The Rainmakers act as the performer's staff and place up to 100 outbound calls to the talent buyers to ensure they have received the email. They also answer any questions the talent buyers may have and provide the entertainer's message along with their website and contact information. The call system places the performer's phone number on the caller ID, and if the talent buyer is unavailable, then staffers will leave a customized voicemail. "The best part of this is that our campaigns are documented so that the performer can review real statistics of who has been called, who has read their email, clicked through, etc. I doubt that you will find many agencies that do this for their clients," says Bazel. getmebookings.com also offers a variety of databases for building target lists, such as Casinos, Clubs, Fairs, Festivals, Performing Arts Centers and more. "We are using the same industry databases as the big name agencies, leveling the playing field for artists across the country," continues Bazel. "In addition, we can incorporate the performer's own database of customers too."

Regular campaign price is $695, but getmebookings.com is now offering an introductory rate of $395 for a limited period of time (subject to available spaces). getmebookings.com also offers CD/DVD duplication and mailing, audio postcards, and social marketing. "We're not the performers' agent, PR representative or manager," says Bazel. "We're doing what we do best, which is marketing concert artists, comedians and speakers to professional talent buyers and venues."
