We’re rolling back to the original site (for now…)

Dear Haulix Customers:

As most of you know, we launched a new website last weekend and it didn’t go as smooth as we planned.  We messed up and I know we let a lot of you down who depend on our services to get your work done.

The last couple of days have been a huge learning experience for us. We have listened to you.

With that said, the new site is going back into development and we are bringing the old site back.  All of your promos, contacts and data will be intact.

This migration back to the old site will span the entire day today.  You will be back to your familiar experience by tomorrow morning (Thursday August 11).

I understand some of you have lost faith in us.  All that I ask, is that you give us another chance and one more day to put things back the way they were.

If any of you have concerns or questions, you can email me directly at matt@haulix.com.

Sincerely,

Matt Brown – CEO

The new Haulix experience has arrived

Late last night, after more than a year of development, the new version of Haulix was made available to the general public. This is the best version of our system to date. We have completely overhauled our UI for press and clients alike, and we’ve also added several new features to help streamline the promotional process. 

A few highlights of our system:

Press Releases: Send out or schedule an announcement or email blast with important information about an artist, album or tour. Our email designer offers a drag and drop interface you can use to easily build emails with text blocks, images and links. We track opens and clicks and statistics are saved on a per-campaign basis.

Audio Promos: A promo is the generated web page your invited contacts will interact with when they consume your music, and it is at the core of everything we do. Create a beautifully designed, fully customized campaign in minutes with our evolved promo creation system. Add background imagery, change font colors, control transparency, and more! Upload your MP3 tracks, PDF docs, artist photos and cover art. Attach Vimeo & YouTube videos. Set the promo’s live and expiration dates and you are ready to email invitations to anyone in the world. 

Campaigns: Every promo invitation mailout or press release blast you send, whether to 1 contact or 10,000 is said to be a campaign. Campaigns have their own screens with a complete rundown of statistics. We track deliveries, opens, clicks, bounces and unsubscribes. Preview the email that was sent, view promo consumption stats or send a quick reminder to those who haven’t opened the email yet. 

Watermarks: Not all watermarking technologies are the same! Watermarking is a technique used to embed inaudible information into a music file; it’s like a digital fingerprint. The Haulix watermark will contain user specific information that allows us to identify which contact specifically downloaded or streamed a file and their geo-location. On average, each track will contain 15-20 watermarks which can survive most attacks such as re-encoding and conversion.

New Haulix Preview

Hello Everyone:

It’s been a year and a half in development and we are ready to launch the new version of our system!  Over the last few years, we have listened to your requests and this new version comes with quite a few new features and enhancements.

The launch will start Friday August 5 at 6PM CST and continue for the entire weekend.  We will be back up and running Monday morning August 8.  

Monday, we will have customer support people available to answer questions or walk you through new features.

Promo Designs

Promos will be easier to customize. Upload a large background image and set a few colors and we’ll make everything come together and look professional.

Screens Fit Multiple Devices

Promos and almost all of the other system screens will be more responsive and adjust to fit desktop, mobile and tablet devices.

All press screens have been rebuilt, including their profile and ‘my promos’ screens.

Email Designer

All mailouts will be organized as campaigns. Send out promo invitations just like you do now AND press releases (NEW).

We built a drag and drop email designer that starts out as a blank canvas. You can add any combination of text or image blocks, upload images, re-use promo images already uploaded and change colors. You will have total control over how your emails look!

Campaign Statistics

All campaigns will have their own statistics pages.  We will track deliveries, opens, clicks (NEW), bounces and unsubscribes.

Promo invitations will have campaign specific statistics and global statistics across all campaigns.

This is just a small preview…  too much to include in one update!
