What We Do
Advertising Campaigns
We have years of experience in digital marketing and ad buying. We specialize in Google Ads, Twitter Ads, Spotify Ad Studio, and Meta Ads campaigns. We craft a custom audience to each client and run individualized campaigns for your music to your “most valuable listener”—the person most likely to stream your music, buy your merchandise, and come to your shows.
This means we don’t just bring you in any streams, but streams from the person most likely to bring you in long-term revenue. For instance, we won’t promote your YouTube video of your song to India or China just to get you a cheap cost per view. If you’re in the United States, and your fans as in the United States, then we’ll promote your music to the United States.
Our advertising campaigns are guaranteed to see results and are not only the quickest, but most effective way of bringing in new listeners and customers to your content. There’s no funny business.
Organic Music Promotion
Our organic music promotions will increase exposure to your music and brand across our brand’s platform. We’ll promote you and your music on:
- Social Media
- Streaming Services
- Our Website and Blog
Sound like a lot? It is. We reach more than a million people worldwide, every month. Let’s get those people to your content.
