Introducing GoDirect (beta)

A free, easy to use platform to get more fans and control your MTV page

Control Your Page on MTV

Did you know that millions of fans use MTV every day to learn about artists? Topspin GoDirect is the way you control your MTV page. Now you can update the basic info, BIO, photos, songs and videos displayed on the page. You can also set an artist banner on top of the page (free promo!) that links where ever you'd like. All of this is FREE.

Submit Songs & Videos to MTV

Do you want your songs and videos to play on-air at MTV? Just add songs and videos to your MTV Page from inside GoDirect, and MTV music supervisors will consider them for on-air placement, web premieres, placement in shows, etc. This is a big deal: more than 200 artists per day are featured across MTV's networks. You should be one of them.

Get More Fans on Email, Facebook & Twitter

Want to make amazing pages to giveaway free downloads? GoDirect makes it easy. Upload a file, turn it on for streaming, choose if you'd like emails, Likes or Tweets for download & then use the Theme Editor to make a killer page. No code required. And your first 250 fans and 250 song or video plays are totally free.

Upgrade & Run Powerful Campaigns

GoDirect's free tier is powerful -- and it gets even better after after upgrade. For $9.99 a month, you get 1000 new fans and 1000 plays a month, with any overage billed at the low low rate of a penny each. You'll also get the ability to create buy links that point to any store on the web.

The Original Topspin

The world's most powerful sales & marketing platform

Free Downloads = More Fans

Offer downloads for email addresses. Topspin widgets appear on Facebook and blogs, collecting emails for you around the web. Did you know email is still by far the most powerful driver of sales for artists? Fact. Give away an MP3, the first 10 minutes of your film, or a live EP.

Topspin Stores Sell More Stuff

Bundle digital files with tickets, merch and membership... in the same product and in the same cart. Use Topspin's embeddable buy buttons to create an amazing experience on your own site, then use our Facebook and YouTube stores to sell the same products around the web. Want a store in Wordpress, Drupal or Expression Engine? Check. Inside your mobile app? We've got you covered there, too.

Send Better Messages to Fans

Touring in Chicago? Don't email fans in Denver. Topspin Smart Group data lets you email fans based where they live, how much money they've spent, their social influence online and a bunch of other demographic info. And you own all the data in your account -- all sales, email, play & share data belongs to you, forever.

Sell Tickets on Your Terms

Whether you're playing basement shows or baseball stadiums, Topspin ticketing lets you sell the tickets. Sell without services fees added on? Of course. Sell digital barcodes & scan 'em with an iPhone? Check. Work with the worlds's largest promoters to sell VIP access, meet & greets, & backstage passes? You bet.

Members-Only Makes Money

Topspin membership lets you sell (or give away) access to "members-only" content and products. Set recurring billing, bundle the membership with other products, and make sign-in for fans easy by using Facebook, Twitter, Google or Yahoo! sign-in.
