We wanted to inform you about a new feature we just released: Up until now, every time your song played on Jango we would show a "one-size-fits-all" Promo Module encouraging the listener to interact with you. Our new customizable Promo Modules allow you to CUSTOMIZE the promo unit to meet your individual goals. The new "default" Promo Module is focused on getting listeners to give you a "thumbs up" and become your fan. But if you like, you could choose between the following Promo Modules: - Custom Flyer - Facebook Likes - Tour Promo - Video Promo - MP3 / Store Promo These options are free with all packages so you may want to experiment to find out what works for you. We believe you'll get better and more valuable listener response rates (i.e. more fans). The new Promo Modules can be accessed from your dashboard (click Band Info). We'd love to hear any feedback you have for us! Sign in here and check out our new promo modules: airplay.jango.com/b...
