    I think you hit the nail on the head when it comes to what's required to learn something - doing it yourself. You can have all the theory in the world, watch all these gurus talking about how they've managed to do xyz, but at some point you have to put in the effort. Learning this part of the music business is part of the craft and if you're going to engage in any kind of service to help you with your music marketing, you have to know how things work so that a) you can direct the company in what you want and b) you'll know if they are doing a good job and you're getting value for money. I am not there yet myself but I realise there's a learning curve. Almost the best thing about this industry is there's no linear path to follow. People can help and do have knowledge, but the only way you'll know it works is by trying.

Maybe you're a bit off, what I'm sure about is , all of you running meta ads agencies are a rip off, Andrew's example taking 45% of a budget. Just learn yourself. Or do use an agency, but not with your insane rates! If I ever make a meta ad agency I'll take max 15%.

      @twostorymediamusic 11 วันที่ผ่านมา

      RE: agency prices: On the one hand, I get where you're coming from ha. On the other hand... I started out running campaigns for $100, flat rate, from artists, and found out that by the time you factor in set up and all the back and forth communication, it comes out to way less than minimum wage. Honestly, even with charging 50% in management (which is what I charge), it's not all that lucrative. You either have to do a ton of scale (30+ clients) or only work with very high ticket clients (i.e., labels) to make it work as a main business model. But from an artist perspective, you're right - I think nearly everyone should learn to do it themselves, anyway.

    • @dailydosamusic
      @dailydosamusic 11 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@twostorymediamusic Hey man, love your videos and I run an agency as well similar to yours. I completely agree about the pricing model, I started out doing it for about $100 as well and quickly realized it's a LOT of work especially if the artist doesn't make engaging content. The biggest hurdle is managing expectations of clients when the music isn't really properly produced or mixed. What I've decided to do is have one part of my model just focused on giving them brutally honest advice about whether they should even invest into ads at the stage they are in. Great music and content just does better so I've started being more selective and quickly realized the best approach for me was: take on a few clients a month that make dope music, communicate well and don't have unrealistic expectations (advertisers aren't magicians lol). Anyway, apologize for my ramble here. You're the GOAT Jon, love all the newsletters and I personally think your rates make complete sense for the value you provide.

There was just 2 days of botted streams on one song, totaling about 2,000 streams. I saw this two months ago when it happened on my spotify for artists. I reported it to spotify and distrokid with screenshots to no avail. they said everything was fine. then got the message today from distrokid that the song will be removed.

    Last year, I experienced a similar issue that affected around 20 of my current and past clients' accounts. Hackers spent a significant amount of money across all accounts and we never fully recovered all the funds, even though I spent an insane amount of time and energy giving Meta everything they needed to clearly see it was a hack and stuff. 💀 Isn’t it strange how, when I'm just running music ads and make changes like increasing the daily budget or logging in from a new browser, Meta becomes extremely strict and often temporarily disables the ad account. But, they allow a hacker with a foreign name and location to access an account, create ads wildly different from anything we've ever done (our hacker was advertising bras), and make drastic changes to daily spending without issue. 🤦‍♀️ It's one of the many frustrating aspects of Meta that leaves me bewildered.

So, seeing he has a solid amount of Instagram followers makes me wonder if the engagement isn’t matching that follower number there as well. Which would point to him likely running some sort of sketch insta promo/buying bot followers. 👀

    Thanks so much for this, the mixed strategy is what I had in mind and now I know for sure that I will go with that. Do you know whether youtube video campaigns with You Grow may result in better outcomes in terms of subscribers, seeing as people get to actually see you and connect a bit more with you as opposed to a playlist?

      Glad to help! Tbh, I don't have a ton of experience with YT campaigns - haven't run one in a couple of years. But in my limited experience, they're slightly better for connection / long-term growth than playlisting. But probably not as much better as you'd expect.

    The ROI on these are so bad especially when you’re only getting 0.03 per stream. No matter what you do here you’re in the red money wise. However great video for showing who and what companies to avoid, there are so many scammers out there and we as musicians feel scammed enough. Thank you for being dope 😊

      Yeah, definitely not the way to go for direct ROI. Glad it was helpful, though!

    A sudden and short term boost in streams, only to return to baseline. A waste of money imo.

    • @twostorymediamusic
      @twostorymediamusic หลายเดือนก่อน

      yeah, that's a fair take. I think it depends what your goals are... but honestly, even if you just want the plain numbers, I think there are better ways than showcase.

    I was able to get on a lot of playlist but most of them where on Spanish Playlist. I have no idea if that is good or bad.

    bro I appreciate your videos, just make sure you include a preview of the songs based on which you are trying to run statistics because the quality of the sound is crucial to understanding the results

      Yeah, good note. For this one, it was an artist who didn't want their details shared. But imo it was a quality song.

    In your honest opinion, with which promo services have you noticed the most residual streams, saves, followers etc.?

    • @twostorymediamusic
      @twostorymediamusic หลายเดือนก่อน

      In terms of playlisting, here are some of my favorites: twostorymelody.com/best-spotify-promotion-services/ It really varies from campaign to campaign, but the top four or five companies there would have my vote.

    Excluding the result a campaign may end up, your review should be included on Google Scholar, and relevant academic journals. Thanks man!

    I heard labels use bots and spotify allows them to. But if indie artists do, spotify will banned them.

      Eh, that's a bit of a conspiracy theory. I honestly think it's probably overblown. But also... you never know.
