SERVICES/CONTACT
When you need to compete among the major label radio promotion priorities, we are your one stop shop and PROMOTE-ME extension of your art, label or management client. We can create and execute a promotion plan to cover single and multiple radio formats as well as providing budgets, timeline and assisting in setting goals and reaching objectives.
The Artist Cooperative works on a monthly retainer basis and serves as your out-sourced radio promotion department where we provide daily updates, weekly reports and conference calls. For labels, we scale our service costs to cover multiple artists at multiple formats that provides exponential savings for our client’s promotional needs. We can also provide individual artist/clients with a dedicated promotion and marketing team that can execute a plan and take your music all the way over multiple release cycles or provide the foundation for ‘up-streaming’ if that is the overarching goal.
The Artist Cooperative can also serve as your label’s in-house promotion and marketing consultants. Our full promotion and marketing team can act as an extension of your label’s branding to provide the workforce of an entire department for less than the cost of a single format head. This can allow your label to compete with major recording labels and devote more of your resources to A&R and artist development and therefore compete more effectively. Contact us for assessment and team pricing.
The Artist Cooperative can also provide exploratory campaigns, on a budget to obtain feedback from decision makers on the viability of your music in the current cultural zeitgeist.
