Amazing service for any artist! Amazing service for any artist. When that deal for 1$ they made me a website. Couldn't take advantage of the other amazing things could learn from their membership. 100 plays on radio I messed up and wrong audience lol Idk what tomorrow is going to bring when I cant afford their membership. I've been stressing the press release cause my freestyle music takes minutes to make and sounds like a big deal when I have a voice better rap as well as serious about music to not judge when these beats has been effortless to create. These sentimental beats were free to make so depends where you are in the music industry.

This was a ripoff This was a ripoff. I basically wrote my own press release and the placements for my ads were in publications that had nothing to do with my music. There was NO individual attention. I produce Egyptian music. For the YouTube ad the only places they targeted were Indonesia, Vietnam, Brazil and Argentina (the cheapest to hire). DON'T WASTE YOUR HARD EARNED $.

At first I thought they were a scam At first I thought they were a scam, wow they did over 250 press releases to radio, some magazines, the press release included my website so I have more traffic because I have a store where people can purchase my cd books etc they have been a blessing. I'm still not finished with them. They are going to be promoting one of my videos five stars for artist pr

Poor communications, slow to respond. Recently. I thought I would try ArtistPR to promote one of my singles. They looked pretty slick and they had been quite persistent with their promotional emails. There were two offerings that caught my eye. A professional press release, and inclusion in 404+ playlists. Neither were particularly cheap, but a useful experiment for me. The 404+ Playlists was straightforward. I supplied them the relevant Spotify link to my track and a few days later I got the details of the lists it was included in. I could also see over 400 playlist adds in my Spotify analytics, so all good. ArtistPR explain the process of adding to playlists is manual, so someone must have spent a fair bit of time setting the lists up for me. In that regard the price is probably reasonable. However, I checked out some of the playlists and they all had several thousand tracks, some over six thousand, and not really that many followers. When you couple that with the fact that as an artist, I was allowed include all of my tracks so long as I followed the list you have to wonder how many real followers there were. I just left them all with my one track. In any event my Spotify analytics confirmed that there were virtually no plays from any of the lists, so a complete waste of money. I also used the professional press release service. I paid my money a little over two weeks before release date. They sent me a link to the portal where there was a comprehensive questionnaire to fill in. I spent an afternoon on this. I figured the more detail they had, the better the results would be. And so it was. A week later I got an email to say the first draft was ready and I headed to the portal to check it out. I was happy enough with the text, just one or two minor tweaks I was able to make myself. There was a button to approve or reject but I wanted a Spotify link to the single included and I didn't yet have that information. Perhaps there is a way to get a Spotify link prior to release, but I didn't know of one, and there was no way to contact ArtisPR to ask what to do. I expected it to be covered by the ArtistPR process, as it is fundamental for a press release for a single. But it wasn't mentioned, and there was nowhere to request one be added before going out. They have a help email, but they warn you not to expect a response for a few working days. I didn't really have enough time to risk that, so I decided to reject the text and explained in the message box that I was happy with the text but that I wanted the link added before it went out. A day later I got an email back asking me to send the link by reply, as soon as I had it. Perfect! On release day I sent the link as requested and waited on my inbox. I also checked the portal regularly. It was stuck in 'With ArtistPR' state all day. Nothing more happened. In fact nothing more happened for over a week. I sent an email enquiring as to the progress after a few days, but got no response. I can say that when it did go out, it went to a lot of outlets. My Google search showed dozens of results for the release at various sites for weeks afterwards. I am a relatively unknown artist, so I wasn't expecting a press release to give me any great benefit. It was more of an experiment for me. I did get a few emails from other companies offering to do my next press release, but nothing more than that. I spent twenty times more money on promotion for this release than my previous release. So far after a month I have had considerably less streams, about 20%. On that basis alone I won't be using these services in future. I felt particularly cheated by the 404+ playlists offering. The lists need completely revamping and some money spent on advertising them. The press release service is quite good, but better suited to a more established artist, and unfortunately blighted by poor communications. Not being able to talk to anyone to iron out minor issues is a killer. So two stars for a good press release text and a large distribution list. Nothing for process or service.

In the modern music business you can't… In the modern music business you can't be naive enough to think that things are going to just happen to you and for free. This company offers so much to the indie artist but as said above it's not free. Access to the Database justifies the price alone in my opinion. They offer you courses and extremely good advice as well. I have yet to see if my press release has gone out to the 150 places they said it would but I am going to give them the benefit of the doubt before rushing off to the BBB like some other people have done.
