We think it was really nice of this blogger to include us in their list and also for the commenter who added Storm Lake to our presence.
It was perhaps a little unsettling in the moment to try on the mantle of “Dead Indie Record Store And Head Shop” but I tried it out right away via our social media and it actually wasn’t weird, possibly because I can obscure the issue a little by being a Grateful Dead fan.
Anyway, maybe Dead Indie Record Store is something I’d like to actually exploit; it’s true, it’s a continuum leading to today, and I can sustain it.
I’m testing some Google advertising. I can get it to display but I’m having difficulty getting anyone to click on the link, meaning (to me) the ad just isn’t very compelling.
I’m going to try:
Dead Indie Music Store
Rock Music Promo Flats 1995-2001
Discounts for 3,6,12 posters

instead of:
Music Promotional Flats
Rock Music Promo Flats
1995-2001 85 Varieties

maybe they both suck, I’m not sure. Maybe they have to be hysterical or offer the moon, but this is just our first baby step beyond last Fall’s testing.
