They had a number of their artists offer a track for their mixtape sampler, but they also uploaded all of the tracks to Myxer where they offered each song as a ringtone using MyxerCodes printed within the cover of the jewel-case. Using MyxerCodes artists can offer more than just a track on the CD for their promotional samplers, now they can also offer mobile downloads. If you create mixtapes, samplers, and compilations be sure to check out MyxerCodes to offer ringtones for each track you feature and a wallpaper of the cover.

MyxerCodes are Myxer’s mobile marketing tool. Reserved for MyxerIndies, these custom codes allow artists to really have a fully mobile promotional tool. All fans need to do is text “BAND_NAME” to 69937 (MYXER) to have your mobile internet profile sent direct to their phone. Your mobile internet profile displays your profile photo and biography then lists all of the mobile content you offer through Myxer. You will find this tool to be extremely valuable as you can provide access to you mobile content anywhere you can post text.

I took a screen shot of the Legendary JC’s Myxer profile so you can see how their profile displays the “JointChiefs” for their MyxerCode. All the JC’s need to do now is let people know they can “Text JointChiefs to 69937″ to have access to all of the JC’s mobile content. They could easily just write it down on a piece of paper and tape it to their Merch table, promoting your ringtones can be that simple.

If you are into guerrilla marketing a great idea is to create a sticker with your MyxerCode then place the stickers everywhere you think people will be inclined to try the code. Then you can track how many downloads you get on your Myxer Activity Details page to see how successful you were.
