Habit Tracker: Expand Your Promoter & Artist Network

As Joe from Dutch Criminal Record said it, “gigmit is beautiful in its simplicity”. We realised that the live music industry was controlled by a few gatekeepers and hence very hard to enter and thrive in. Until today! 

The new gigmit Habit Tracker is a simple tool to help you build a strong promoter and artist network within the music industry. With measurable progress and achievable goals. We tell you how it works…

Create habits to expand your Network

At gigmit, we know that building a strong network requires a lot of time. For artists who start from scratch, it can quickly become a full-time job. That is why we have created the Habit Tracker. To make it easier for you, artists, to set yourself goals that will result in useful connections.

In fact, there are over 200,000 artists and promoters registered on gigmit right now, and as many potential contacts. With the Habit Tracker, we set achievable goals every week. From contacting 10 venues to initiating a conversation with a fellow artist.

We help you measure your success visually, directly from your artist dashboard in your Weekly Booking To-Dos.

Boost your Booking by Contacting Promoters

Expanding your network by contacting venues, clubs and festivals directly can be intimating. gigmit makes it easier than ever thanks to the Festival & Venue Database. This tool enables you to email festivals and venues with a few clicks, including a bulk messaging function. 

Our habit tracker is there to remind you to keep on with the hard work! We really encourage you not to give up after a few messages sent. In fact, it takes a lot of requests to finally get an answer.

That’s why we recommend you to contact venues and festivals every week. This will help you make valuable contacts and find opportunities much faster! From now on, you can keep track of how many promoters you have been in touch with and if it’s enough to achieve your goal! Of course, feel free to contact even more ;).
