Street Team manager wanted!

09 Oct 2006

Our street team FOOTSOLDIERS, needs someone who can manage the operation and turn it into the baddest guerilla marketing business in the UK! We need someone who loves music more than they love their mother, is well organised, is full of great ideas, has shit loads of energy, and is willing to work alongside the Captains of Industry rabble!

We want you to recruit and manage our street teams (we already have many in place) and organise the campaigns. At times we may also need help with recruiting bands and labels.

You can work from home so you will need an internet connection and a mobile. It doesn't need to be full time just yet so you could fit it round other commitments, such as part-time/freelance work, or studying.

This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to work in the music industry, particularly in marketing, but unfortunately we won't be able to pay you initially (we all do this for the love man). However, we expect it to make a profit in the mid/long term, of which you will get a share, depending on how sucessful you make it!

If you think you've got what it takes to be a Lieutenant-Colonel of the Footsoldiers contact Rich info@footsoldiers.org.uk Over and out.

Re: Street Team manager wanted!
Dear chums,

I'm sure you've probably already filled the post for street team manager, but I thought I would give you my two cents anyway.

At the age of 14 I started a Fanzine called 'Maladjusted'. It was mainly just a blag to get free gig tickets, but quickly turned into something more than that. And the free tickets of course. With the help of my chums I turned a a5 b+w mag into a 40,000 distribution with a whole load of advertisers. At 17 I jacked it in and concentrated on music for a little bit, organising tours for my pretty rubbish band (exodus collective) who were, rubbish. I can't really stress the rubbish part enough. I'll send an mp3 to you sometime and you'll wee your pants. Anyway, despite our rubbishness, I came into contact with a pretty cool and completely unknown strange band from london, and quickly toured with them too. After the tour they got a bit of exposure from some managery types and then got signed to Warners. Tossers. But they're still going strong today and probably banging lots of underage japanese girls like any good rock star should. Rolling on a little bit I then took a marketing and sales job with a national utilities company (Npower) and was number 1 sales person in the uk! Huzzah! The money was good but by that time I was in a band I rather liked and decided to focus on that for a while. I'm fairly obsessed with most types of music, any dischord records stuff, Anticon, 70s jazz fusion, hardcore, hip-adee-hop (Im a human beatboxer) and spend a lot of my time trying in vain to get on the telly. Usually doesn't work, but was on the gadget show the other day. That bald geeza and the hairy bird gave me a pep talk about how I should 'never give up' and 'go for my dreams'.

Yak.

Anyway, I hope you don't invoice me for the 2/3/4 minutes of your time I've taken (depending on literacy levels) but even if to say hello, maybe drop me a line :o)

catch you later

Joshi
