So you've positioned your song to be released on a certain day. Maybe it's DistroKid or CD Baby, or one of those distribution services. Maybe you're doing it yourself, but you're going to have a release date and you're trying to figure out what can I do next?
Well, here's a really easy thing to do. Get your song blogged about by people that blog about music on the internet or some website, (I don't think they do magazines much anymore). This will give you a lot of credibility for your artists' brand and show people that you're a legit artist.
The tool I'm going to show you is called SubmitHub, [ Ссылка ] and it's super easy to use. Anybody can use it! There is a little bit of a charge, but it's totally worth the money in my opinion. And it's a way of getting your music into playlists like a Spotify playlist, YouTube, that kind of thing. Check it out.
I use a service - a website called SubmitHub - and the link is below. You start your account, upload your artistry and your songs into it. From there, you can easily submit your songs to curators.
On the list of curators are people that basically put together playlists for Spotify or YouTube or Pandora or Apple music, things like that. Also, some of these curators are record labels. And some of them are just influencers, like people that just have a lot of influence on Instagram or TikTok.
These people are connected to Spotify. And the reason why they are connected is because they make a little bit of money every time they review songs. When they take your songs and blog about it, that kind of thing.
And this whole site is changing constantly. So what I tell you right now could be a little different when you start to do this, but in theory, this is a hub - SubmitHub is a hub for you to get your music into the hands of people that are looking for your music.
I like to use it to get my music blogged about or to get it into Spotify playlists. The first thing you do is you buy credits. Credits, there's a whole scale of how to get them. For example, if you buy five it's six bucks. It's essentially about a buck a piece per credit.
The more you buy, the more of a discount you get. So if you buy a hundred credits, it's $80 bucks. Now this is going to be some of the best money you'll ever spend on your song, but only do this if you're really sure about your songs.
If you are just putting together a demo, you may be just wasting money by using this. But I strongly suggest using this as a super easy way to get attention to your song.
I'm going to show you what I do with this now. I've already submitted this song to different to five campaigns that I've built with this. You can see the campaign results down here. I've had 11 approvals and a bunch of people have passed on it. And that's actually normal. Eleven approvals is actually pretty good!
Most of the time you're going to submit to people and they're going to say, 'Hey, this is great, but it's not really what we're looking for because they're looking for a specific type of song or sound.'.
That is totally normal. You need to get used hearing the word 'no' and moving forward and not letting it get you down. So we're going to submit this again.
Now, since I've already uploaded this song, I don't have to upload it again, but we're going to do "Curators". Note that there are different groups. You can send it to record labels, influencers (like TikTok) and things like that, or to curators. For this example, we're going to send it to curators.
Now it asks me 'what kind of credits do you want to use?' I like to use premium credits. It costs a little bit of money, but again, if you pay for the credits, you get better results. SubmitHub allows you to easily send your music to curators using either standard or premium "credits." Each curator requests between 1 and 3 credits.
If you use premium credits, you can expect a decision within 48 hours. For a curator to earn your credits, they will need to listen to at least 20 seconds of your song, and if they don't like it they'll need to explain why.
