#mixtogomassive is #amplified to announce the birth of our new social network. "Mix To Go Massive: The Ultimate NYC Social Network" launched today HERE.
It isn't the first time we've been part of the meetup family. When Mix To Go Magazine launched back in 2008, a meetup group was created as a way to promote the publication. We had groups in NYC, Miami, Atlanta, Houston and Las Vegas. The group had hundreds to thousands of members...but the team leaders in each of those cities were not organized, didn't comply with our basic rules to maintain ongoing events for members and ultimately, we folded them all. Re-entering the social network landscape, a lot of thought and time went into the re-launch of our presence on meetup. They do a lot to get people to join your group, but nothing once they are members...because the thinking is, YOU create the group and they help a little; YOU engage them with your content and offline events so they stay interested. The problem with Meetup.com then and now is they offer so many group options that groups don't maintain credibility because all people are doing is joining them and not staying active in them. That was our problem years ago...but our program is different this time! In addition to social mixers and parties, we also host movie meets, concerts, live shows featuring local talent in Brooklyn and Manhattan, cruises, gatherings at the beaches and boardwalks and parks of New York City...it is sprawling, but most importantly it is member-driven as well as organizer-driven. We also have a half-dozen organizing partners in NYC as well as Miami and Las Vegas (we are keeping our focus narrow this time). Each of them will focus on different kinds of gatherings and once a month a gathering known as our "membership drive" invites new and established members to come to an event that changes in style and location monthly to encourage something "new" and refreshing. Our first gathering takes place at SUTRA NYC (see our FIRST EVENT by clicking on THIS LINK). We'll give away free magazines, CDs and host drink specials all night. Well, mo Join us today as membership is FREE. See our group page to see what MIX TO GO MASSIVE is all about. See you in the mix!

Normally when I post this blog I'll include a look at an upcoming issue of Mix To Go Magazine.
It IS ready but you'll have to wait until Wednesday to see it. JUNE is a trifecta for us: Black Music Month, Caribbean Heritage Month and HBO'S American Black Film Festival happening in Miami. This new issue will feature coverage of all three-via new mixes, events on our calendar and more. Speaking of films my Wife and I were looking at all time film lists and decided to craft one of our own...that will be featured in the next issue as well. If you have a top 10/20/100 list send it to us...if you can make notes about them as well (although we consider ourselves very knowledgeable) that would help. If you are interested in helping with articles (travel enthusiasts and party goers take note!), ad sales people and reps who live in Atlanta, Las Vegas and Atlantic City send us a note: [email protected]. Enjoy your weekend! Freedom J. || Editor In Chief, Mix To Go Magazine

ADVERTISING is a required method to get the word out about your business, its products and/or services. Be sure to keep Mix To Go Magazine in mind!
Our reach is far reaching and deep: our weekly email blasts reach over 100,000 with 50% in NYC, 25% in Miami and the rest across the country-travelers! We have new partners in social media that will add an additional 10,000 twitter followers over the next few weeks, 10,000 Facebook group members and this website you are looking at generates over 20,000 hits a week. Our audience is targeted to lifestyle brands primarily-spirits, events, parties, fashion, entertainment and then bits of other things such as technology (cell phones, tablets, computers of course, apps) and anything related to a good time, such as restaurants, lounges (including hookah), security, limousine services/party buses, weekend getaways/cruises/hotels/travel, tourist-driven activities such as museums, Broadway shows, theater and sightseeing; events with good causes associated with them and film-oriented events (film festivals, movie releases). The overall message behind Mix To Go Magazine is we are always in the mix about all of the above, and on multiple levels. Yet you will find our focus is centered mainly on new music, DJ mixes that promote such music, parties and events, artists (both new and established) and finally giving back. Through these four primary areas we have established our publication firmly in what is mostly viewed as "the underground" because our viewpoint tends to be very progressive and ahead of the curve. DJs come to us for the next big thing in dance music. Artists give us their music to give to DJs in general or to our DJs to feature on our compilations. Venues in NYC, Miami and soon Atlantic City reach out to feature themselves or their events in our publication; promoters of such venues will reach out to feature their parties and events in Mix To Go. We have partnered with some of the hottest venues and promoters to present the parties and events you see on our website (see ON THE GO | EVENTS). Advertising with Mix To Go Magazine can be as un-traditional as the magazine itself. Sure we offer full page ads and double page ads in our print editions, banners on our website (see top of the page, right) and through email blasts. But we also offer social media "mentions" and "announcements" (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram) as well as a unique presence at various events each week that set us apart from ALL publications in the market. Further we sponsor events produced by our publication and can offer greater and strategic market positioning of your products and/or services. A few coming up are "Mix To Go Marathon" (May 15-19), "Rhythm & Soul Music Festival" (October 10-13) and "Amplified Music Conference & Festival" (January 17-19, 2014). Join the movement and change the way the world looks at your business!
