Don’t miss your chance to be a part of the hottest way to promote your band! PickRset provides
bands with a unique way to really connect with their fan bases” by allowing the fans to request
the songs in the band’s live set as well as review the shows leave comments and automatically
get notified about new merchandise, videos and tour dates.

Warped Tour will receive a $1,000 gift card to the gas station of their choice.

A special thanks goes out to Sarah, Kate and Kevin from Vans Warped tour for allowing us to be part of the tour. Having been on this tour many times selling merch and still having many bands on it every year it gives me a great feeling to not venture into a different side on the tour.

Why would we build an application out for another social networking site? Simple we want the bands to get as much exposure as possible. So if that means allowing our services to be on another site then so be it. So check out the application and pass it along to as many friends as you can.

Starbucks+Netflix=Synergy

Starflix-1

Well before I start this I just have to say this is not happening as well as I know this is just my idea.

I was recently reading on Wired about the woes of Netflix and the post office. Being a big fan of Netflix and always wanting to get the DVDs turned even faster (well in theory I have had some movies now for about 2 months) I thought why not have Netflix and Starbucks combine? Huh this makes no sense all but it does. My idea would be that you can return your movies to your local Starbucks. The Starbucks then scans it and allows your next DVD to be sent out to you. The movies are then collected and shipped in bulk back to the local Netflix center.

Why Starbucks? Well I don’t think I need to answer that question but I will there is one on every street corner. It seems like there are more of those than mailboxes. I have to figure that there are more Starbucks in the US than Blockbuster Videos.

How would Starbucks benefit? Come on your telling me you would go into Starbucks and not buy something? Win-Win. Heck put a coupon on the Netflix envelope for a discounted coffee.

So Starbucks and Netflix listen up this is a great idea so contact me and I will help you out. There is the rumor of Apple starting up there digital rental service.

If you like this idea I have a ton more and I am always available. Let me know in the comments what you think of this idea and visit my site pickRset.com and pickRpres.com to show your support for dumb business ideas.
