Closeup.fm careers
New Internet celebrities pop up daily. Closeup helps them get paid.
People become famous online by playing music, blogging, making videos, and posting photos on Instagram and curating Pinterest pins. But thousands of these musicians, bloggers, filmmakers, and social media influencers struggle to bridge the gap between their online and offline worlds.
Closeup’s tools, ticketing, and network of free venues enable them to create pop-up events that their fans can host, pay for, and promote. With Closeup, entertainers can convert their online currency—in the form of likes, follows, clicks, pageviews, and plays—into profitable offline businesses. A band can book concerts in fans’ living rooms rather than in bars and make 200-300% more per concert. A chef-blogger can turn her local supper club into a tour and hit he road.
Closeup brings together talent and appreciation. We help artists create beautiful, face-to-face experiences for their fans, and we give fans great stories to tell.
