This Is How I Would Handle Britney's New Single Release.

[AudioBritneyBeats]

Nov. 9th, 2015 - Britney Appears on Jane The Virgin, and shares that her new single & release date will be announced during the JTV Episode. Following the show, Britney releases the cover art w/ the release date. 

 

Nov. 20th, 2015 - Release the new single w/ a Lyric video & take a moment to talk about the song with her Las Vegas Residency audience that night. Something like "So, just in case you guys didn't know, my new single "insert title" was released today, and I just want to thank everybody for all the support over the years! Make sure to check it out when you leave me tonight!"

Nov. 23rd, 2015 - Lead by Britney, and a trending topic #SongTitleRequestDay, Nov 23rd would be a day dedicated to request the song on Radio. Britney would be leading the way, doing a Q&A, and announcing her radio promo tour. This would be Britney Army's best chance to ensure the single gets a strong start on Radio.  
 

Nov. 25th, to Nov. 27th, 2015 - Series of Canadian & US Radio Interviews to promote the new single. 

 

Nov. 24th, 2015 - Appears on Ellen DeGeneres to talk Family, Music & Vegas, and shares a 30 second sneak peak at the Music Video for the new single. Announce that the music video will be released the day before her birthday, exactly one week from the announcement.  She would upload the Sneak peak to her VEVO that night. She would also announce that February 13th, will be when she premieres the new "Piece of Me" show. 

 

Dec. 1st, 2015 - Release the new music video, to YouTube/VEVO, and do a twitter Q&A at the same time. The next day is her birthday, so Entertainment pages will be linking the music video in all their birthday articles!

 

Dec. 7th, to Dec. 11th, 2015 - Series of UK Radio Interviews, along with a TV appearence on Alan Carr, to promote the single. 

 

Dec. 31st, 2015 - Perform the single for the 1st time, at her NEW YEARS EVE show, and announce that it's just a little sneak peek of the new show that Britney will premiere in February.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

What do you guys think? Would that be an exciting way to announce Britney's new single? would you love it? I want to do this for a living, so let me know your thoughts.

 

I definitely think that this plan would ensure a Top 10 out of the song. 

The TV show creates hype (and it'll ensure amazing ratings too), the lyric video being released on the same day as iTunes & Radio will ensure strong streaming (songs premiered with lyric videos tend to receive stronger streams in their first week, then audio videos). Those early streams, along with initial sales & airplay, will hopefully lead to a Top 40-50 debut, and the sneak peek of the video would keep that momentum going. The music video premiere would hopefully cause the video to jump into the top 10 with radio being much higher at that point, and the sales improvements. The radio request day would also help ensure the song gets a strong start on radio.

Finally someone who creates a believable schedule and doesn't add like 218489 award show performances!   I really like your idea, but the only thing that I'd change is that I'd take the opportunity of appearing on Jane The Virgin to actually release the single, because something that always happens is that they announce the release of a song but then it takes so long that the hype created dies and no one checks for the song by the time it comes out! So yeah, she could talk about the song on interviews before the airing of the episode and then have it on iTunes after it ends!

[JoshLee]

Best idea ever!!!

[Caroline77]

Sorry but this is a mess, nobody gives a fuck about Vegas she better not doing any announcement there, she needs to be interviewed on something like GMA, and NOT pre-recorded from her dressing room in Vegas, to announce the single there, or premiere the video , or even both , and a performance too would be fine but i won't ask too much for the same day

Before that tho , just a snippet of her new song as a surprise on Jane The Virgin would be fine, just to create hype and all that.. even if this show has like only 10 viewers but whatever.

She needs talk showS appearanceS WITH performanceS, not just one useless interview on one talk show and that's it. 2 or 3 would be fine.

Obviously radio interviews, but also filmed interviews for Extra, E! , things like that. 

She needs cover magazines.

Then when the song is released in UK she would go there, do some radio interviews, interview on GMB , performance on X factor. 1 talk show (with or without a performance, because the same, i won't ask too much )

Then later , early 2016 go to australia - she's supposed to go there for her lingerie line - perform her song after the presentation of her collection (and why not a next single too if there will be one at this time), doing interviews, another performance somewhere (i don't know if there is X factor or something like that out there).

 

 

Sorry but after that mess of BJ and PG she needs serious promo, and yet this is still not a lot, like around 3 performances in US, 1 or 2 in UK, 2 in Australia (if she'll really go there).. that won't kill her 

 

But just, ONCE the song , and not Vegas, is  properly promoted they can start promote Vegas with the song if they want, i don't care but i want NOTHING Vegas related with this new single during its release and until it's doing fine.

[BlackoutEgo]

The dates between the single & mv release dates are too far apart ... After the single is released the mv follows up a week later

And the performances are too far apart as well , she needs to perform at least 2 weeks later after the release date

Well this is just the first single. If I was going to write out an album release plan, there would be an award show or two in there.

I see your point, but Jane The Virgin also isn't a very big show, so it's not like it would truly give the song a huge launch. The song needs hype, and Jane The Virgin would be what starts off the hype, there would only be about 11 days in between the announcement of the single, and then the release of the song, so there is no way that the hype would die off that early.

When are fans going to get it - ITS ABOUT VEGAS. IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN. 

You will never get crazy serious promotion, ever again. FFS, you will never get FF level promotion ever again.

Not to mention, SHE CAN'T PERFORM ANYWHERE IN NORTH AMERICA, EXCEPT VEGAS. What is so hard to understand about that?

Also, your schedule is a complete and utter mess, it's not perfectly timed out to ensure the best charting.....you have completely ignored her commitment to Vegas and when her shows are, and how you would need to plan travel time, and her personal schedule. 

What you have done is created a delusional dream promo schedule that will never happen because Britney is not at that point in her career anymore.

Also, Vegas wasn't even mentioned at all in this promo plan other then discussing it on Ellen & her interviews, and when to perform the single....BECAUSE SHE CAN ONLY PERFORM IN VEGAS. The fact that the BBMAs were in Vegas, and she filmed it from her theatre should tell you that.

You can dream all you want boo, but as long as Britney is in Vegas, it will always be about Vegas. We've been told this many times by Britney's team, and that is why you all get disappointed. You ignore what they tell you, then get mad & upset when you don't get what they already told you you're not getting. EVERYTHING BRITNEY DOES IS TO PROMOTE VEGAS RIGHT NOW. The sooner you all learn to fucking accept that, the happier you will be.

[AudioBritneyBeats]

THIS !!! I like this better sis

you like that mess?

eeek. girl. There is no schedule to it whatsoever. 

They have completely ignored how the charts would play out, they have completely ignored her commitment to Vegas, AND THE FACT SHE CAN ONLY PERFORM IN VEGAS IN NORTH AMERICA, not to mention, it's unrealistic. Britney has said time and time again she isn't at the point in her career & her life where she wants to be everywhere. 

 

Planning promo for Britney is about getting the best bang for your buck, to put it metaphorically. 

Its about getting the most out of being able to do so little.

[AudioBritneyBeats]

The dates between the single & mv release dates are too far apart ... After the single is released the mv follows up a week later

And the performances are too far apart as well , she needs to perform at least 2 weeks later after the release date

Um, they are 11 days apart.

For fuck sakes, we didn't get Womanizer, or the Work Bitch video till about 2-4 weeks after the single release.

and that formula doesn't work anymore. Not with the new charts dude. The song would peak after 2 weeks, and just drop out of the charts. 

The song needs to build airplay, it needs to build exposure before you just drop a video. 

Not to mention, this promo plan and spacing shit out, allows for the song to grow, it allows for LONGEVITY, which is Britney's major problem. 

and honestly, it doesn't matter when the performance is, ITS NOT GOING TO BE ON TV.

How do you guys not get this already? You've been told countless times by her team.  

[PsychoMonkey]

"Shes doesn't care about her career since she doesnt promote"

PROMOTES VEGAS

"She's promoting vegas too much!!!"

....

Sis no offense but your promo strategy sucked

The dates were too far apart.. & lets not start about the whole Vegas contract thing.

1. We know nothing about the new contract Britney signed &

2. Iggy already spilled the tea on twiiter, Britney can indeed perform anywhere but it cant be full live shows (she cant do full 90 min shows outside Vegas)

I like her strategy better because Everything fits in perfectly. If youre gonna release a single u got to keep up with the promo so it can succeed on the charts.. Just like femme fatale era Britney was performing at night clubs in Vegas way before her album release.

And according to Britneys twitter shes saying totally different things now, before Britney said that she wasnt keen on touring anytime soon. A fan asked her if shes planning on touring in the future and Britney replied "Who doesnt love to travel". Ppl can change there minds about things

Ok first of all missy youre gonna watch ya dam mouth with me. No one is being rude to u we just have different opinions thats all.

As I said before youre strategy sucked, lets keep up to date about things and not talk about release dates from 2/7 years ago. The PG video release was set to release a week later after the single release. It got helled back 3 days because of the timing. The thing is if u want exposure and for the song to do well u got to make things perfect. If u have the dates too far apart that will cause it to start dropping and get red updates , and sweetie dont tell me about the chart dates cuz I already know about it and I know they changed the dates.. A performance 2 weeks after the single release is perfect . The thing is u got to maintain the green updates and not let it drop ..

Day of single release: radio interviews

3 days later: Lyric Video

1 week later: music video

1 week later: interview on GMA/Jimmy talking about the single & newly extended Vegas) & performance

1 week later : interview on ellen (talking about Vegas & single)

1 week later : Mag cover revealed & SNL

This will get the GP's attention .. The thing is this is just enough promo ..this may seem like a lot but its really not its only 3 shows out of 3 weeks

[gimmework]

I think until Britney isn't in Vegas, we will get a lot of Vegas promo.. like all the time and I think it's unavoidable. They have to sell those tickets.. But I get what you're saying. The promo does get tired. 

 

When are fans going to get it - ITS ABOUT VEGAS. IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN.

I really LOVE the idea here of SNL!!! If her Vegas contract would let her, that would be beyond amazing and epic!!! 

I also think that you are right about the video and single release needing to be a week apart at most! 

 

Actually I wish she would just drop the whole album and accompanying music videos out of the blue like Drake, and Beyonce have done! I think it would be epic and boost sales! 

 

 

Vegasney is here through 2017 whether we like it or not. Personally I do like it!!! (ALMOST) Everyone on here complains about Vegas but obviously the majority of the public likes it otherwise it wouldn't be so successful and they wouldn't be able to extend it another 2 whole years! I get that the promo thing sucks and I do feel bad for those that can't travel to Vegas to see the show but I think that most fans like her being in Vegas they just aren't as vocal about it because they don't have to be.. they are happy. I personally have seen the show twice and will be going back in Jan for new years to see it again. It is her best show since Onyx and as a Britney fan that is something to be very THANKFUL and excited about!  Dance has been back lately in Vegas and honestly as a Britney fan that is my bread and butter!!!

I only gave ideas honey, there is no schedule at all in my post so don't even start with "it's a mess , not perfectly timed out whaatever" it's just the things she should do, not when and not even in order.

Then , yes she can perform outside Vegas for PROMO, that contract excuse is bullshit so stop with this already, it's getting annoying. 

And then yes i know they have to promote Vegas but that doesn't mean they have to kill the single promo plan. Everything is possible, she CAN promote her single separately from Vegas !!

I never said I had a problem w/ Vegas , im talking about the music release strategy. Carolines idea was not bad at all she was simply talking about things that should be done for the single release (especially since she wont do many shows next year)

Our point is not everything has to be revolved around Vegas, & the contract has nothing to do with it. Iggy already said that Britney is allowed to perform anywhere outside of Vegas, she just cant do full live shows. Which means Britney can still perform outside of Vegas & over seas if she pleased

In order to keep a song on top Britney will have to maintain it.

Song release : radio interviews

3 days later: lyric video

1 week later: music video release

Next week: gma/jimmy interview & performance (talk about single/Vegas)

Next week: Ellen (talk about single/ Vegas/give away tickets)

Next week: Mag cover revealed & SNL

3 shows out of a 3 week period is not a lot to do tbh

[AudioBritneyBeats]

BlackoutEgo, I will talk to you however I damn well please. You seem to think you have the right to speak any way you please to people, so if you can't handle the heat, get out the fking kitchen. 

i'm going to put this as nicely as I can..............................The single would flop with your "week by week" strategy. 
The music business is not what it used to be, shit like that doesn't work anymore. 

But eh, me being in school for this, and studying this on a day to day basis, means shit. I have no idea what i'm talking about. LMAO. 
 

[HybridFan3]

Hold up wait a minute Im about to put my 2 cents in it.. "You think u have the right to speak any way you please to people" Sweetie youre being quite the delusional & drama queen tbh , I talked to u in a respectful manner and you got all crazy w/ your response for no reason. If I couldnt handle the heat then I wouldnt be responding to you.

My week by week strategy is actually brilliant because thats whats going to make the song go higher or at least maintain. If the promotion is far from the single then thats what causes red alerts and for the song to sink. Of course I know that the music industry and sales are changing thats why Im talking about the strategy.. Before you didnt even have to promote as much because the song would still chart high because there wasnt much technology around. Now that we have technology artists have to go full out with promo just to get their song bought and streamed

[AudioBritneyBeats]

Same here bb!

My hard work is finally paying off boo!

I'm finally going to get to meet the queen in 2016!

[Veronica the witch]

am i the only one who wants Britney to go on a late nigh show?? like Jimmy kimmel or jimmy fallon, but like a real good interview, like go there, sit and talk about fun random stuff, not a 1 and a half minute thing to talk about Vegas, or what about Saturday nigh live?

I totally do too, but I think those are things she should do, more to support the release of her next album, not just single. 

Like, she should release her album Friday (new album release day for BB 200 to get full week of sales) and then appear on Saturday Night Live 2 days later on SNL...then Wednesday in the same week, appear on Jimmy Fallon or Jimmy Kimmel.
