🛑 Are Your Venue Co-Host Invites Getting Lost? Here's Why & How We Fix It!

We've all heard it: "I sent the venue a co-host request, but they haven't accepted!"

The truth is, those little red notification bubbles often don't show up when venue managers log into their page, meaning your invite gets missed.

We're introducing a simple, proactive process to ensure every event is promoted efficiently and accepted quickly:

The Solution: Send the link to your event to the venue!

For Bands: When you create your Facebook Event, look for the share link (it often says "Invite Co-Host" or "Share Event").

Send the Link to The person that booked the show for you: Your promoter, buyer, owner or agency.

We Deliver It: We will personally deliver that link to the venue's buyer, manager, or owner for immediate acceptance.

This small step ensures the venue sees the invite right away, guaranteeing your event is co-hosted and shared by everyone involved.

Promoting is a team effort! Let's all be a little more proactive and make sure our events are as unified and cohesive as possible.

✅ Help us help you! Start sending those direct links today!

🛑 Bands: Stop Hitting Send Before You’re Ready! 🛑

Want to play bigger and better venues and stop getting rejection emails? The truth is, most bookers/buyers won't even reply if they don't see four key things in your pitch. You can prevent rejection by preparing these materials BEFORE you reach out.

We at Sound Check (and most other venues) look for platforms that show us you can draw a crowd and put on a professional show.

What you need to land the gig:

Live Performance Videos: Clips filmed in front of an audience that capture your energy. We need to see how you perform, not just rehearse!

Audience Reach: A dedicated social following with a minimum of 1,000 followers. This proves your ability to market the event.

Appealing Visuals: High-quality photos that look great in promotional materials.

Clear Audio: Clean, crisp recordings that truly showcase your talent.

Ask yourself these questions before pitching:

Did you actively invite people to follow your page this week?

Did you capture high-quality video and audio at your previous shows?

Did you crop, edit, and shorten your video clips for maximum, high-impact appeal?

Have you looked at the platforms of bands currently playing the venues you’re targeting, and do you compare favorably?

Missing these items could lead to an easy rejection. These are all 100% achievable goals for any band before you contact a single venue! Level up your presentation and get booked.

Happy Sunday! As we scroll socials today enjoying the fun Saturday night of videos and photos, we once again see an unappealing habit that should recognized.

To make sure your social media content captures the energy of your show, always focus on sharing content that aligns with your intent. A photo or video of an empty dance floor sends the wrong message, suggesting your show is not well-attended and making it look "lame" to people quickly scrolling through their feed. If the visual doesn't match the fun or interesting vibe you're trying to convey, either crop the photo/video tightly to focus only on the stage and the band's performance, or choose not to post it at all.

Show the world the excitement and the action, not the pause.
