We’ve used GetMusic on 3 releases now and every single time it has resulted in many more followers. They may not always translate into more sales - but you are in all those peoples collections and they are all on your messaging list for notifications about future releases etc. We regard it as an investment for the future - to build up your list of followers and raise awareness of what you do. Chuck (who interfaces with the artists) is a really nice guy and will always try to accommodate any requests you have for promotions and new merchandise releases etc. He has done loads for us and his intervention often results in increased plays on our Bandcamp page. The news of the offer of promoting free downloads at no cost is a godsend to struggling bands and is an excellent idea I our opinion - it means we can now afford to offer free downloads of “singles” to promote upcoming releases. Keep up the good work - GetMusic definitely gets The Crabs Commendation!
After 24 hours of using GetMusic and some very modest promoting, 23 people have downloaded a copy of my album, "Who Goes There?" I was very enthused to see almost all the users were new. In addition to the downloads, I've also been receiving more streams than I usually do; very cool!
I honestly cannot remember how I functioned as an indie artist without GetMusic. In fact, the site does so much of the work for me, I've actually let my other promotional activities slide! For a long time I was a "Free" or "Pay What You Want" artist, but had little traction. Even though listeners getting codes through GetMusic is still technically free, there's a psychological reward when cashing tokens for music you'd normally pay for. Just by offering codes through GetMusic, my listeners have grown by 70% or more. Along with providing links to song downloads, GetMusic is constantly popping up on the socials with graphics of new releases, either solo or grouped with other new tracks. I myself am often drawn to new music thanks to these arresting graphics. GetMusic's stats are also great for reposting and reminding listeners of your newest tracks or albums. Along with Bandcamp, GetMusic is an essential tool for the indie artist.
I'm delighted with my initial results from GetMusic. In less than a week, I've gained 24 followers & a handful have even purchased my discography.
GetMusic helped me to spread my music online and get a lot of downloads for my album - 20 in less than 24 hours! I will be using GetMusic again for my next release!
It's easily the best way to promote your music and build a following. It’s also a great way to build a music collection. Honestly, it's my go-to site, beside Bandcamp, for the community of talent and those with great taste.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I use @GetMusicfm because it's the easiest way to share my songs with people who love music. It's also a great way to find music for my weekly indie music show on @audiomiragepdx radio!
GetMusic has increased our engagement immensely in a short time. Fans being able to return to an album in their collection quickly has also led to more sales in the long run. GetMusic is a must-have for any musician or label who wants to keep fans engaged while simultaneously finding new ones.
The views, sales, and followers increased, and honestly, I had a great experience.
