SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Indie artists who already spent four figures on PR or radio plugging often waste money on mismatched promotion products or botted playlist farms. This Skill provides a clear release promotion framework for the Total Audio Promo £59 pack, setting realistic expectations on timing, deliverables, and results. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Release Timing Guidance: Advises submitting tracks 2 weeks before release so radio producers and playlist curators have adequate lead time. - Playlist Vetting Rules: Defines red flags for botted playlists, including stream-to-follower ratios over 100:1 and geographic streaming anomalies. - Realistic Success Metrics: Sets expectations of 5-15 radio plays, 2-5 playlist adds, and 1-3 blog features rather than BBC Radio 1 or major editorial placement. - Use Case: An artist with 20k monthly Spotify listeners who previously paid a plugger asks how to promote a new single. The Skill outlines what to prepare (WAV track, 150-word bio, press kit), when to submit, and what results to expect from the £59 pack. ## Quick Start Use the indie-artist-pack skill to build a promotion plan for my single releasing in three weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions about indie-artist-pack

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I promote an indie music release to UK radio and playlists?▼

Submit your track, press kit, and Spotify link about 2 weeks before release to a pack covering 200 UK radio stations, 400 playlist curators, and 50 blogs. Radio stations typically playlist tracks 2-4 weeks after release, so lead time matters.

What should artists prepare before submitting to a radio promotion pack?▼

Prepare a WAV or high-quality MP3, a 150-word bio with genre tags and previous support, and a Spotify pre-save or release link. Professional photoshoots, EPK websites, and music videos are not required.

How can I detect botted playlists before paying for playlist promotion?▼

Avoid playlists with stream-to-follower ratios over 100:1, playlists that wipe all tracks every 48 hours, curators requesting direct PayPal for guaranteed streams, and playlists with 80%+ streams from one server-farm city.

What results are realistic from a £59 radio and playlist submission pack?▼

Expect 5-15 radio plays across community and online stations, 2-5 independent playlist adds with 10k-50k followers, and 1-3 blog features. BBC Radio 1, major Spotify editorial, and 100k+ playlist adds are not realistic at this price.

When is a one-shot promo pack not the right choice for an artist?▼

A one-shot pack does not replace a 6-week dedicated radio campaign or a £5k plugger for national BBC Radio 1, 2, or 6 Music targeting. Day-of-release submissions also underperform because radio producers need lead time.
