WICKED WIDGET!

Wed, November 21, 2007  

One of London’s leading independent music promoters FeedMe Music is pleased to announce that they are now using a pioneering new music Widget to sell ‘e-tickets’ for their events.

Gig goers can instantly buy tickets to FeedMe Music nights by simply inputting their ticket requirements into the widget (mini-music portal), and receiving a text message as an e-ticket to their mobile phone. In addition to this, users are also sent a bar-coded pdf ticket to their email address. The gig goer shows their text message and/or pdf ticket to the venue and voila!

A unique function of the widget is that it can be easily implemented into any digital space – Myspace, Facebook, personal blogs, and instantly empowers artists and promoters to start selling their own digital content and gig tickets directly to their fans.

Implementing a Feedme Music widget requires no technical knowledge whatsoever. A simple cut and paste, and fans and artists have instant access to their FeedMe Music widget at all times, which is updated centrally. All transactions take place within the widget and the buyer can pay by text, credit card or paypal.

Another factor which sets this widget apart from others, is that it also sells MP3’s, ringtones, pictures, video clips, in fact any user-generated digital media – making it a one-stop music shop for all artists!

The widget is brought to you by ‘The Bizmo’ the developers behind Groove Mobile – the world’s largest digital download platform. With their finger firmly on the digital pulse, The Bizmo team has already developed a Facebook application. Again, with a single click, users can place the FeedMe Music widget directly onto their Facebook page thereby enabling them to offer downloads, and ticket sales directly from their profile.

David Gjester, the Norwegian entrepreneur behind The Bizmo states: “The Bizmo is mutually beneficial for both consumers and artists alike as it empowers fans whilst offering an authentic marketing tool for new and established acts. It also offers unsigned and independent artists a DIY approach to promoting their product to a vast online community.”
