Ads for a release, three ways.

The ad account, the card and the spend stay yours. Each way is a flat fee, never a cut of what you spend.

Thirty minutes on video with Dougie to work out which way fits your release. The $49 comes off any project you book within 30 days.

The three ways

  1. Coming

    A one-hour plan you run yourself (Release Ads Consult)

    A one-hour call that ends with a dated, step-by-step ad plan for your release, which you run in your own account.

    It can't be booked yet. Its booking link goes here when it can.

  2. Built in your account

    Ad Setup (Meta to Spotify Ad Setup)

    $597

    The Instagram and Facebook ads that send people to your Spotify, built in your ad account: targeting, tracking, a landing link and a sheet to read the results. You run them on your own budget.

    A flat fee, never a cut of what you spend.

  3. Built on a call

    Ads run for you

    We run the campaigns month to month in your ad account, on your budget. You get a fixed price in writing before you pay.

What we don't promise

Nobody can promise streams, saves, followers or a cost per result from an ad, or that a campaign pays for itself, and we don't. The terms say it this way: “If an engagement ever involves running ad spend, it's a flat setup fee, never a percentage of spend or results.” Read the terms.

The release timeline in the Toolkit already has the ad steps on it: set the ads up the week before release, launch them on release day, and keep the ones that work in the first week.

Questions

Do you run ads for artists?

Yes, three ways: a one-hour plan you run yourself, which is coming; a setup we build in your own ad account, for $597; or ads run for you month to month, built on a call. Each is a flat fee, never a cut of what you spend.

Who runs them?

Dougie Schmidt, who runs Well Made Plays and manages its roster. Your $49 call is with him.
