Promote Your Work
Our integrated media players stream high-quality audio and video, and can be played & shared anywhere – from websites and blogs to Facebook feeds and mobile phones. Let everyone experience the fruits of your labor!
Sell Your Products
Our integrated store distributes your offers across the web. Sell digital and physical media, merchandise, tickets, fan club memberships, or anything else you can dream up. ION3 can also handle your fulfillment from our warehouse. We’ll process your orders and ship them on your behalf. ION3 can also supply you with custom digital download cards which your customers can redeem in your store.
Website
We offer a couple of options when it comes to your website. That may not seem like much until you realize how many variations there are to these 2 options! First, choose either a template site or a custom site. From there, you pick and choose the features you would like such as:
- Gallery
- Blog
- News
- Schedule
- Facebook and Twitter feeds
and many more
Your Custom Store, Anywhere
ION3, utilizing Topspin technology, offers you a professional, customized online store. Offer a huge variety of products, and embed your offers anywhere on the Web. It’s the most powerful, flexible online store solution you can find. Integrated with your website, you can sell high-quality digital audio & video downloads. Offer any type of product you can dream up, from vinyl, merch, and posters to digital audio and video. Even sell tickets directly to fans with no “convenience fees”. Create deluxe packages and bundle your items in any combination. Your store can even be added to blogs, mobile apps, Facebook pages, and music discovery services. Our simple, secure shopping cart accepts all major credit cards, and our integrated fulfillment service can ship your products worldwide
Online Ticketing
No matter the venue you’re playing, ION3 offers a full-scale solution that lets you sell tickets directly to your fans. Bundle your tickets with audio and video downloads, merchandise, or anything else in your store. Offer VIP ticket packages, meet-and-greets, and backstage access. Sell your tickets for a flat retail price, and save your customers from extra fees and charges.
Fan Club
Do you want to run a special ticket pre-sale just for your biggest fans? Wish you could launch a fan club where members get exclusive downloads? Ever thought of selling subscriptions to your musical output?
Do all this and more with our Membership product, which lets you sell (or give away) access to “restricted” content and products. Whether it’s a members-only video or an MP3-of-the-month club, you’re in control. It’s flexible, powerful, and easy to use. Create multiple access levels, set recurring billing, and bundle Memberships with any other product in your store.
Shout It Out!
At your disposal is an arsenal of customizable widgets to promote your art, share your media, grow your audience, and connect with fans. Create slick streaming-media players and share them on websites, Facebook feeds, and mobile browsers. Build your fan base by offering free downloads in exchange for email addresses or Tweets, Likes, or Shares. Our full-featured email marketing platform lets you target fans based on location, demographics, social media power and purchase history. Our suite of promotional tools extends your reach far beyond your website — it lets you promote your art on a global scale.
Analytics
Information is the key to making smarter decisions and optimizing your business. All the data on your fans, stores, and widgets is integrated to help evaluate your campaigns, analyze your audience, and market your products more effectively. Our system also integrates with Google Analytics, so you can tap into a deep well of data. See which items in your stores get the most views, clicks, and conversions, and which email blasts get delivered, opened, and clicked. Graph widget performance to spot trends in sales, streams, and shares. Get a breakdown of your audience’s age, location, gender, interests, social-media influence, and other demographic traits, and send targeted emails to groups of fans. Download detailed sales reports to keep a close eye on your bottom line.
Here to Serve You
Of course, all of this is great if you had the time to do it all. That’s where our service come in: we’re happy to look after all of this for you! Just let us know what you need posted to your site or which product you need added to your store and we’ll look after the details for you.
