3 ways to leverage your Spotify growth
You’re starting to gain streams and monthly listeners ?! Amazing! Now what?
If you’re going to invest in yourself on Spotify here are some amazing ways to leverage that growth
Collaborations. Now other artists will see you have traction! They’ll be more likely to want to collaborate. Of course you should always work with musicians who you like and actually want to work with (regardless of their reach). But 2 artists with Spotify followings teaming up means double the reach when the song drops! Your reach and visibility makes you a higher candidate for artists wanting to collab.
Reaching out to local bookers! Do some research on venues and clubs in your area. The bookers more often than not, would love to support local talent! Especially if you’re showing traction and that people are listening to your track. Put it on their radar that your song is doing well on spotify. They’ll be inclined to check it out and give you a shot opening for a similar artist.
Hacking the algorithm. Now that one (or multiple) of your tracks are in the algorithm, Spotify is more likely to show your new tracks to those people who have listened. By continually promoting tracks and releasing new ones you can game Spotifys algorithm which will lead to more royalties and more new discovery.
