Carrie's Soldiers Wants You

Fans of American Idol and country music singing sensation Carrie Underwood prepare for major recruitment drive to gain additional marketing momentum.

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) August 13, 2005 -- Carries Soldiers, a new fan-based marketing organization, is initiating a major effort to increase their membership, in anticipation of Carrie Underwoods debut album due for release this fall. Carries Soldiers acts as a facilitator to help Carrie Underwoods worldwide fans gain the best opportunities to come together in very positive and enjoyable ways to help Carrie.

Oklahomas Governor Henry probably says it best," says Rich Gordon, editor of CarrieNEWS.com, when he states 'Carrie is talented, graceful, charming, hard-working and a testament to what can happen when people follow their dreams. She is Americas Idol, but she was Oklahomas Idol first."

Carries Soldiers has found that many of Carries fans wish to take their affinity for Carrie to a higher level. They actively seek to participate in projects which will help Carrie share her positive message with the world and to help support her in her rise to fame and acclaim in the country music recording industry.

Carrie is a great recording artist, but her unique qualities, as highlighted by the Governors comments, are what set her apart as a role-model for people of all ages. Carries down-to-earth nature, and positive message for todays world, is what drives many of Carries Soldiers to seek enthusiastic ways to help Carrie," adds Mr. Gordon.

Many of Carries Soldiers projects are a very action-oriented, grass-roots style of marketing and are what is referred to in the music industry as a street team." One example of an ongoing project is contacting radio stations to request Carries music, in order to introduce potential new fans to her music. Another example is the distribution of promotional materials at concert venues.

During the past 2 months since the release of her debut single, Carrie has enjoyed record-breaking chart success and has become the only country music recording artist to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Carrie is currently on a 43-city nationwide concert tour with American Idols Live.

Carries Soldiers is a project of CarrieNEWs.com, a website providing the latest news on Carrie Underwood, and is the flagship site of Rocket Online Media.
