Cas Lucas
Reps/ Street Team
If you're checking out this page, it's probably safe to assume
that you are already listening to and enjoying Cas Lucas's music
and are wondering how you can help spread the word. This basically
means that you rock!
It's up to true music fans like you which artists "make
it" and which ones never get exposed to the worldwide audience
they deserve. Programs like this are a big part of how a lot of
the bands we all listen to got where they are today.
*There is no minimum time requirement, and we appreciate
any and all efforts in our behalf, so you really have nothing
to lose. There are no dues or required financial contributions
involved either!
Reasons to join the Cas Lucas Reps Program:
** Free Stuff!! Who doesn't like free stuff? We'll send
you a Cas Lucas Rep Starter Kit, including a free compilation
CD, stickers, flyers, and other promotional goodies for you to
use as you see fit. (This is the only way to get a ahold of a
copy of the brand new songs from Cas's new, yet-unreleased
CD that you may have heard streaming on MySpace.
Only CL Reps have access to these amazing new tracks!
As a registered Cas Lucas Rep, you can also get Cas
Lucas Merch and CD's at reduced prices! Just ask your Rep
coodinator how.
**Resume Builder/Music Industry Experience: This is a
great way to learn the music biz and make contacts inside the
industry. It is up to you which sector of the industry you wish
to focus on and what amount of time you wish to invest. Any buzz
is good buzz.
**Rock Star Perks: Cas reps will be routinely selected
for guest list admission and backstage passes to select Cas Lucas
shows.
Hey, and don't forget the FREE STUFF!
Sound Good?

Rep Ideas...
There are different areas of promotion that you can get involved
with, and, again, how involved you get is completely up to you.
Some things our reps are doing are...
1. Online Promotion: Talking up Cas's music on MySpace
and other artists' message boards. We can also send you banners
to get a Cas Lucas presence going on our MySpace profile or website.
Just email reps@caslucas.com
to request a banner, even if you're not a registered Cas Lucas
Rep.
2. Grass Roots, Word of Mouth Promotion: This is the oldest
and most affective way people hear about new bands/arists. Tell
a friend, burn them the cd, have them tell a friend, etc. You
can email reps@caslucas.com
to request a flyers, stickers, or other promo materials, even
if you're not a registered Cas Lucas Rep.
3. Cas Lucas Tour Promotion: When Cas plays in your area,
you'll try to get folks to come to the show through flyering,
grass roots promo, etc. Reps will often be asked to work at the
merch table at Cas's shows. You'll get free tickets and most likely
get to go backstage and meet the band. Just email reps@caslucas.com
to request a flyer (email or US mail), even if you're not a registered
Cas Lucas Rep.
4. Radio Promotion: Try to get Cas played on your local radio
station. (or any cool station you know of, FM, Satellite, or Internet)
We'll send you all the materials you need for this, and from there
it's just a matter of making a few phone calls or emails.
5. Promo at Concerts by Other Artists: Maybe you're going
to a DMB, Jack Johnson, OAR, or Ben Harper show this year. (or
any other artist/band whose fans might like Cas's music) We'll
send you some flyers and stickers to hang up and/or hand out outside
the show. Lots of our Reps have don this in the past, and it's
a great way to make a bunch of new Cas fans in your area with
just one hour's work... Especially if you're already going to
the show!
And the list goes on....
It's all good progress, and we really encourage outside the box
thinking from our Reps. Just get out there and do something, and
we're psyched.
Or...
