Turn social network "friends" into True Fans.
You're an artist, not a blogger.
Before AMOS, you probably looked at hosted blogging software like Wordpress, Blogger or TypePad. They offered an easy and inexpensive way to create and manage your official site. But they were designed for bloggers, not bands and musicians. AMOS is not another blogging tool. AMOS is an online artist management platform that has been designed exclusively for independent artists by independent artists (and, in the interest of full disclosure, a few music business professionals :-). We understand your official site demands far more than a simple set of blogging tools. AMOS provides you with all the tools and resources you need as an artist...through a single dashboard...that makes it really easy to manage all of your artist content and activities in one place: news, press, tour dates, blog, discography, merch, photo galleries, videos, links, bio, contact information...and so much more.
All for one. One for all.
You know frequency and responsiveness is everything. You rely on repeat business from your fans. That means your official site should be the first place to break the latest news and where fans find something fresh they haven't seen or heard before. But you're on the road playing every night to a growing crowd of fans...building a loyal and enthusiastic following. It's not easy keeping your site up-to-date...and, wait, you just received an email alert about a new PayPal order. AMOS believes it takes a team to succeed. AMOS allows you to invite other people to help you manage all your activities. Assign permissions to each person to control what they can access and do. Let your manager ship the new order. Let your booking agent login and post a new tour date or change the start time for Friday night's gig. Let your publicist post a great new review that might motivate a few more people to check you out at your next show. And while they're taking care of business...so are you...out on stage in front of an even bigger crowd.
Automatic transmission.
AMOS automatically adds play buttons for streaming all your songs, or just the one's you choose. AMOS relates press to albums so fans can read positive album reviews while browsing your discography, as well as live performance videos to tour dates to further encourage fans to buy tickets to your next show. AMOS creates "buy links" to online retailers so you can direct fans to your favorite stores, whether it be iTunes or Insound. Don't forget to include your affiliate code so you make money on the referrals! AMOS syndicates your news, press and shows as an RSS feed that your fans can subscribe to. AMOS tracks how many times your songs have been streamed and downloaded...how many fans have opted-in to your mailing list...how many PayPal orders you've received.
Click...it's there. Click...it's gone.
You want to share an exclusive track with your fans. Upload it and, with just one click, make it available for streaming and/or downloading on your site. You want to remove the track a week later? Takes just one click. Same goes for all of your content...merch, albums, news, press, shows, photos, and videos. And, in so doing, you keep all your content archived in AMOS just in case you need it again down the road.
PayPal...turbo-charged.
AMOS helps you get the most out of PayPal. Give AMOS all the details for a new music product (i.e. CD, Vinyl or Limited Edition release) or a new merch item. Tell AMOS on what day you want the product made available for sale. AMOS generates your PayPal "buy now" button and, on that day, automatically shows the new item for sale on your site. AMOS even alerts your fans ahead of time to the date the item will go on sale. When a fan makes a purchase, AMOS receives the order information from PayPal, notifies you via email, adds the customer's email address to your mailing list, updates your inventory and lets you know whether the item has been shipped or not. When the product is sold out, AMOS automatically removes the "buy now" button and displays an "Out of Stock" notice.
