Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Identify Your Promotion Channels

Start by mapping out all the places where you can share your OnPitch link to reach your existing audience.

Primary promotion channels:

Social media profiles: Instagram bio, Twitter bio, Facebook about section
Website integration: Header, footer, contact page, about page
Email signatures: Personal and business email signatures
Live events: Verbal announcements, stage displays, merchandise
Existing content: YouTube descriptions, podcast show notes, blog posts

Why this matters: Consistent link placement across all channels ensures maximum visibility and multiple opportunities for fans to subscribe.

2. Craft Compelling Call-to-Action Messages

Create specific messaging for different contexts to encourage profile visits and subscriptions.

Effective call-to-action examples:

For social media bios:

"Get exclusive updates sent directly to your phone → onpitch.io/yourusername"
"Join my inner circle for behind-the-scenes content → onpitch.io/yourusername"

For live events:

"Want to know about our next show before anyone else? Text updates at onpitch.io/yourusername"
"Skip the social media algorithms - get our announcements directly at onpitch.io/yourusername"

For email signatures:

"Stay connected: onpitch.io/yourusername"
"Get exclusive updates: onpitch.io/yourusername"

Add your OnPitch link to all your social media profile bio sections for consistent visibility.
