An old school model that just doesn’t get the same attention that it used to is the ancient concept of the street team. I’m sure that it’s still a thing in certain places but not exactly something we’ve ever taken the time with, but have been contemplating and stewing over the idea for a while. A number of ideas have come to the forefront but none of them with the kind of gas that it takes to actually get behind.
Now, we’re taking steps to implement this model with some updated flavors, now that the subscription tier model has taken precedent on the world wide web. Unsure exactly where the idea is coming from, per se, however the motivation was always in place to find ways to connect with an audience that might not have the financial over head to part with in order to invest in a project like ours. So while we attempt to manage the burden that comes with our operational costs, we’re not letting anything become a burrier to being involved in a manifest way that transcends and bridges the gap between the digital realm, and the real world.
In comes the eUangel Street Team! Taking all the old school benefits of the street team, with a flair for the digital social system at play on media platforms like X, Instagram, TikTok, and the like. A eUangel (prounounced “You-Angel”) Street Team member can earn their position on a subscriber tier by being engaged with promotional campaigns for events on on social media. We’ll set a number of campaign tasks to complete, like posting a tiktok, reel, or post on any social media platform of choice tagging the band, posting up printed posters at local businesses for events, using Good God Father music in your reels.
Depending on the campaign tasks you happen to achieve will determine the reward upon completion. We’ll be planning the campaign to meet the balanced value for effort exchange. If you might be interested in being a part of getting this off the ground, or you’d be interested in being involved in the planning, either you can send a message to the band asking about how you can help by messaging us in our DMs across the various platforms, or just follow the directions of each of the campaigns as they are posted.
