Frederico Cardella may not be a familiar name to you now, but very shortly his vocal cords will be well known universally, much credit to social media. Frederico Cardella is launching his music career, and his brand new album "Amore Intimo" with the help of social media, and has some super socially integrated sites that he is implementing, in fact if you are a musician, you should take a look at his online strategy.
Of course, he starts with the basics such as his MySpace page, Frederico's Twitter page and Facebook, but with services catering toward the music industry, he is taking full advantage of these as they are integrating some incredible social media features.
For example, take a look at Frederico Cardella on iLike. They offer musicians instant access to iLike blogs, updates from Twitter, iPhone applications, all updating simultaneously.
Next, take a look at Cardella on Last.fm where you can "share" his music via social networks and buy his tunes directly from Last.fm (They actually send you to iTunes)
Finally, Amazon's "Artist Central" now enables you to submit a singer/musicians bio, and Twitter address which feeds status updates into Amazon. Take a look at Frederico's Amore Intimo album page.
Lots more I am sure we can expect, in fact next up will be to work on the "traditional" side of internet marketing, with some "Wilmington NC SEO" :)
