When it comes to selling music, Vinyl Moon marches to the beat of their own drum. Along with offering a selection of albums, they also started a “mix tape” record club, where each month subscribers get a custom pressing of hand-curated tunes. And the unconventional music store uses a mix of apps to keep everything on track.
Vinyl Moon uses Skio to power their subscription business. The app lets customers prepay for their monthly vinyl and manage their own subscriptions, with the option to skip any month they don’t like the sound of.
CartBot lets Vinyl Moon give new subscribers a free gift, which gets added to their cart automatically. It’s a total win-win: they start building customer loyalty right out of the gate, and customers get a nice surprise.
Along with selling records, Vinyl Moon also offers “grab bags” filled with things like patches, stickers, and turntable mats. And they use Bundles to group products together and keep inventory organized.
Members are the heart and soul of the Vinyl Moon record club. SC Customer Tagging helps the music store keep track of each customer, send them timely rewards and discounts, and even celebrate their membership anniversary with a gift.
Vinyl Moon isn’t just about curating the best music around. Each record they create is also packaged with unique artwork. And with Swatch King, they can create custom swatches and dropdown menus that show off the art for each album.
So many apps, so little time! There are so many creative solutions in the Shopify App Store and it is so great to have them organized in one place where I can read reviews, see pricing, and feel confident about what I'm installing.
