About the Jasmin Music Card
Sounds 247.com's newest marketing concept, the Jasmin Music Card, offers marketers of all stripes a new and innovative way to reach millions of customers at very low costs. Initially introduced as a music passport to Sounds 247's online music stores, it allows cardholders to download one free song a day for an entire year and to enroll ten friends and family members who may do the same. Thus any marketing effort can be multiplied by a factor of 10 with virtually no effort on the part of the advertiser. Income-producing opportunities are virtually limitless. Sponsors pay for card customization and distribution (both very affordable), and for use of the data collected during its use. The card is an outstanding premium for any company or nonprofit that wants to reach the highly coveted 13-50 demographic. It is being marketed by Sounds 247.com to restaurants, concert venues, banks, beverage companies, clothing stores, and non-profit entities throughout the U.S.
