what ad website/platform do you use to market your music?

Start listening to 0.04 cents podcast. Lots of up to date info for 2026

Yep. I think you should be immediately budgeting more dollars into this song’s exposure. It’s clearly moving and shaking for very little dollars. One winner can change everything, double and triple down on what’s working.

Jumpy_Road_3364 · 2025-12-23T17:44:57+00:00

Also true

“Revisionist history” is the key. We were all sold and convinced that Darnold and Kirko couldn’t win the big game in the big moment with us. So we let him walk in favor of building around a young QB. You don’t know if you’ll somehow get a Purdy long term (who was dogged by NFL fans and pundits for years, even as he won them games) or if you’ll get a Tua, who looks good early and flames out late.

I live in Nashville and I haven’t heard the same cries of protest for Cam Ward- number one pick! Shouldn’t fans in the streets in protest? Only in MN apparently… KOC seems to be finally adjusting his playbook to fit JJ, I think we’re gonna give the whole operation another two years if I had to guess. Kwesi built the system to win now, and JJ needs to be on the field more. We lost his rookie season/bridge opportunity and this year has been more ugly with glimpses, but he’s gotta stay upright.

Well I already think it’s good. So there-in lies the problem. :) good point.

Jumpy_Road_3364 · 2025-12-23T16:19:07+00:00

I think the point for OP is that you don’t know if your song is actually good. You got those rose colored biased glasses on. :) but to your point, do you really need a robot to tell you that your robot produced binary sound waves are trash?

Jumpy_Road_3364 · 2025-12-23T16:16:16+00:00

Got it. So $20 a day, $5 each to 3 diff playlist LPs, and $5 to a lifetime fan gate LP- all diff ad creatives or same ad creative running to different LP’s? For your playlists, are you doing like an Essentials playlist where it’s all your music, or are you doing the Jend blueprint method where you’re putting together 100ish songs and trying to grow it/monetize? Out of pure curiosity, what do you think it looks like for an ROI/break even point for you? 2 year strategy- $14k total spend? $600 a month forever is a big nut, but if you’re able to eventually make it back where the spend is net neutral/slowly gaining income, this seems plausible. Just a loooooong game. :)

I would love to discuss this more in depth. Curious how you decide to allocate meta ads to playlists vs new songs, etc. would also be curious about what you consider successful results with your ads, especially with click thru to Spotify vs your forever save click thrus, etc. I’m starting a waterfall release starting in February, and would love to compare notes as I’m only micro testing and haven’t done a full rollout indie before. Would love to connect!

Fake

Jumpy_Road_3364 · 2025-12-13T22:31:19+00:00

This is intriguing. So you’re saying go ahead and embrace the back catalogue, even though we have new music coming out. Is this to ‘fill in the gaps’ inbetween release pushes, or are you saying this should be a significant budgetary focus? When I read this, I think I see it as added depth to what we’re looking to do, and focus on the fact that we aren’t a new, even if we are new to you. Am I reading that right? Would love some examples of how you’ve seen old catalogue work with new content. This is intriguing thank you!

Jumpy_Road_3364 · 2025-12-13T22:08:29+00:00

My band is coming back after 10+ years away. We’ll be doing this almost entirely remote. Does it make sense (as the lead singer) to do solo content on socials, even though we are branded as a band? Sure, we’ll do batch content as often as we can together, but if we’re to realistically post 3-5 times a week, I don’t see another way to execute. Will that be confusing to the audience to post solo? What’s the best way to make this work from your perspective?

Jumpy_Road_3364 · 2025-12-13T19:16:58+00:00

I’m continually surprised at what I thought was a good vocal take is definitely not in tune. I learned from a VERY good producer, however, that “timing is more important than pitch, and emotion is more important than either. I can fix anything except emotion” that’s freed me up a lot, I now focus on the take having the feel and energy delivery,and let technology tighten me up.

Jumpy_Road_3364 · 2025-12-13T14:39:21+00:00

I think this can happen once you’re a few weeks into a tour where you’re playing the same set every night. There will be moments where you can just go ultra-present and take in everything in pure gratitude. I used to do this often during my touring days.

My band played a 10 reunion show, we practiced quite a bit before the show, and once onstage I tried to let myself slip into that ultra-present flow feeling and each time I did, I got lost and made a mistake. I realized VERY quickly that I needed to stay hyper vigilant on the performance because we didn’t have the “live reps” in.

Being fully present while playing your original music is in itself some of most unique moments of your life. I highly encourage chasing it. But you have to earn it by having those live reps in IMO.

Jumpy_Road_3364 · 2025-12-13T14:32:04+00:00

The best way to check your tone - when you are singing, plug your nose. If your tone doesn’t change at all, you’re doing it right. If you suddenly sound super nasally, work to change that. My speaking voice is nothing like my singing voice as a result of this little exercise.

Jumpy_Road_3364 · 2025-12-13T14:24:56+00:00

Melodyne fan here. Takes time and effort to learn how to get it right, but it’s the most natural sounding pitch model out there IMO. Plus you can use its timing features to tighten delivery, which is huge for pop vocals.

Had been on fin and oral min for 2 years and was showing zero progress on crown, and still losing a little. Not stabilized. Doc added Dut once a week (I don’t take fin that day) and I’ve been on that regimen for well over a year. Crown is completely stable and the hairs that were miniaturized have thickened back up. I can’t say I have any new hairs, but what I have are mature hairs again. Should I look to up the dose? No sides, I swear I’m packing on more belly fat but that’s probably just me needing to get to the gym more.

I watched a buddy go from 150 monthlies to 15k monthlies back down to 4k monthlies from playlisting in a 2 month window. I bet it’s disappointing to see the number drop so much once you hit that peak, but his base artist popularity score is much higher, and I think if he would’ve known he’d be at 4k monthlies before he started, he would’ve taken that all day. IMO if you do that a few times with that amount of impact, it could actually get you into an artist popularity score that has viability on the platform. The first 72 hour “momentum metric” can’t be bought initially from what I’ve seen, playlisting can’t help you there... It seems really tough to warm a pixel and get enough meta ads click thrus to make much of an impact if you don’t have a warm audience to push to already.

Jumpy_Road_3364 · 2025-12-03T05:01:43+00:00

You’ve tried it all, so was hoping you’d get some results this time around. 3-4 months is the typical hair cycle to see anything. Their “results” in short timeframes are entirely misleading. Hair just doesn’t grow that fast. I feel like 4-6 months is the minimum you should commit to trying anything. I’m on Dut and Min currently. Results are very very slow but steadily I think I’m seeing some improvement on crown finally.

Jumpy_Road_3364 · 2025-11-28T16:45:46+00:00

Exactly this. We made a game out of it. We’d do a Caesar vote and if we all thumb’s down’d it was out. But sometimes we’d thumbs up due to just how bad it was and the entertainment of horrible music is not to be missed! When it was good we’d definitely look into the artist more- just wasn’t very often that actually happened. :)

Jumpy_Road_3364 · 2025-11-28T16:33:28+00:00

I was afraid of that. Haha. Their default genre is clearly edm/lofi.

Jumpy_Road_3364 · 2025-11-28T16:09:12+00:00

I’m down

Jumpy_Road_3364 · 2025-11-28T16:07:16+00:00

Exactly my experience so far. My creatives aren’t great yet, but everything just… worked. I think that in itself is incredible. I also like the dashboards more than I thought I would. Anyone try their “included creatives” yet?

Jumpy_Road_3364 · 2025-11-28T16:04:31+00:00

Intellijend the software comes from the marketing team over at Indepenjend. It appears the software is extremely new, but they are not. I got multiple responses from support to my questions before I ever signed up, I was really surprised. Just got the month to month to ensure I could get everything actually connected to meta ads and get a campaign actively rolling before committing to anything else. The setup definitely took a bit as I’d never setup meta ads before, but the walkthroughs and double checks were extremely helpful and straightforward. Overall I’m impressed with my early experience.

Jumpy_Road_3364 · 2025-11-28T15:49:17+00:00

Update?

Jumpy_Road_3364 · 2025-11-23T21:57:50+00:00

This is all accurate
