WHY SEVEN MILLION ?

The new comeback is gonna be all self produced/directed by BTS themselves so we want to get a million pre orders for every member for their 7th year.

Please note that this depends on when BigHit drops the pre-order link for the standard version- if there are less than 3 weeks for pre-orders then our goal will be 7M COPIES not pre-orders.

GROWTH IN THE FANDOM

There have been massive events this year that have pulled a lot of new fans into the fandom ( grammy, james corden, class of 2020 etc). We have doubled in numbers every comeback, there has been a huge growth in stream numbers and in twitter likes ( going from 1.5m on tweets to 2m to per tweet) so this makes achieving 7m pre-orders more possible.

PRE-ORDER NUMBERS FOR PREVIOUS COMEBACKS

LOVE YOURSELF 承 'HER' : 1.05M
LOVE YOURSELF 轉 'TEAR' : 1.5M
LOVE YOURSELF 結 'ANSWER' : 1.51M
Map of the Soul: PERSONA : 3.07M
Map of the Soul: 7 : 4M

WHERE TO PRE-ORDER

Big Hit posts official links for you to order from, including places like Amazon or Target or HMV.
You can buy from Weverse Shop Global or USA.
Ordering from Weverse Global shop will count towards k-charts (hanteo/gaon etc) whereas ordering from Weverse USA will count towards the Billboard charts. Don't pre-order from unofficial links!
Pre-ordering from your countries official retailers will make it count towards your country charts.

TIPS FOR YOUTUBE

The link below will send you to a online tutorial to help you understand how to stream on YouTube in a more efficient way so views aren't deleted and BTS MV's can perform better. This is made by @Madness134340 on twitter and is in English, French, Spanish, and Portuguese
Another tip is to sign up for premium accs so the views are less likey to be deleted! students get youtube premium at a cheaper price and you can get a 30 day free trial and cancel so as to not get charged
Make sure not to stream on miniplayer (when you minimize the video and it plays in the corner while you scroll YouTube) as it will count as 1 view. (Source: the original YouTube Help twitter account)

TIPS FOR SPOTIFY

-Do not loop! looping songs or playlists is seen as bot behavior and the streams dont count!
-Skip one or two songs every hour listen to song by other artists occasionally (non kpop)
-Try to alternate between 2/3 playlists
-DO NOT MUTE! have the sound at least at 50% or more

TIPS FOR iTUNES

-BUY THE TRACKS SEPARATELY!! if you are in the USA and Canada but not if you are in other places such as the UK and Germany
-gifting on iTunes DOESNT count for the charts
-ALWAYS delete the songs from apple music after you buy them on iTunes, then re-add them from apple music or your plays won't count. You would just be streaming a purchased song and that doesn't count for any charts or apple music. The purchase is still valid but the plays of it are not.

If you cannot afford to buy the tracks on itunes there are fund accounts for armys such as :
@fundsforbangtan
@borahaefunds
@thetaeprint
@jinnieslamp

If you can afford to donate to these fund accs so people are able to buy the tracks (SEPARATELY!!) that would also be a big help! DO NOT DONATE TO ACCOUNTS THAT HAVE JUST BEEN MADE! THEY COULD BE A SCAM!
These will count towards HOT100 and BB200

TIPS FOR APPLE MUSIC

For iPhone users they have to delete their download after purchase on iTunes. If not streams won't count. Then they can stream from the library

Android users don't need to delete anything so they can just stream.

Also the + sign has to appear when listening or else the streams do not count

TIPS FOR BILLBOARD

10 tracks sold = 1 album
1 Album = 1 RIAA unit
If you purchase the main title many times (under maxi 5 purchase per credit card/account & don't complete the album) YOU HIT BOTH BB200 & HOT 100 !
Purchase the same day or week
4 main titles on itunes with 1 acc/credit card at home (1 IP ADDRESS)
(But that means u can buy 1 ANOTHER SONG)
3 main title on google play with another credit card/acc at college (1 IP ADDRESS)
*3 on amazon (same process) at work or family
NEVER click "Complete" album on iTunes

MAJOR OBJECTIVE: CHARTING ALL TRACKS OF BE IN THE HOT100
This IS possible because:
-The album will likely have around 7-10 tracks
-During MOTS7 4 songs from the album charted on the HOT100 (3 at the same time) without ARMY intending to
-All the MOTS7 tracks were on the Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart (Top 20) which means they were very close to charting in the HOT100
-Since then the fandom has grown largely (CHECK GROWTH STATS HERE) which makes this goal more attainable
-This is Jimin's wish as well as the other members so let's do it for them.
