Save The Stereo Project Proposed Ideas
Updated November 28, 2013
Idea #1: Stereo Store Day
proposed by Save The Stereo on November 28, 2013
Save The Stereo is excited to propose the idea of an annual Stereo Store Day on the fourth Saturday in April; the Saturday after Record Store Day. Stereo Store Day would be a voluntary, one day event to attract music lovers and audiophiles to independent stereo stores from coast-to-coast and around the world.
In-store events at participating independent stereo stores could include product demonstrations, stereo and music seminars, listening parties with new and popular audiophile pressings, enticing prize drawings, give aways, and a store-wide sale.
Stereo and music industry representatives would be invited to participate for guest appearances and product demonstrations.
Idea #2: In-Store Events
proposed by Save The Stereo on November 28, 2013
Save The Stereo is excited to propose the idea of year-round calendar of in-store events for independent home stereo stores. These events would be designed to establish, maintain, and grow an active community of customers.
The Save The Stereo project is working on an extensive list of possible events designed to attract and engage new customers and keep them returning to the store for additional events, educational opportunities, and experiences. Each of these events will be posted as a separate idea on Save The Stereo for evaluation by the community and industry.
