Artist Promotion & Music Promotion

Turn Every Release Into Sustained Audience Growth

We coordinate the full release — streaming, social, advertising, PR, creators, YouTube, and audience development — so each release builds on the last and your career grows with real, lasting fans.

One Release Is Not a Strategy. A Career Is.

A song can spike. An artist grows. We are not a service that sells you one promotional tactic and calls it a strategy. We are a partner that coordinates the entire release — across every channel that matters — so that each campaign compounds into lasting audience growth.

Release Strategy

Pre-release planning, rollout timelines, and campaign architecture that turns a single drop into a sustained growth moment — not a one-week spike that fades.

Multi-Channel Coordination

Streaming, social, advertising, PR, creators, and YouTube — all aligned around the same release, the same timeline, and the same audience.

Compounding Growth

Each release builds on the data and audience from the last. We use campaign insights to make every subsequent release smarter and more effective.

Artist Promotion FAQs

What is artist promotion?

Artist promotion is the coordinated strategy of turning an individual release — a single, EP, or album — into sustained audience growth. It is not a single tactic like playlist pitching or a one-off ad campaign. It is the full release ecosystem: release planning, streaming promotion, social media, paid advertising, PR, creator campaigns, YouTube, and audience development — all coordinated so that each release builds on the last and the artist grows a real, lasting fanbase rather than a temporary spike.

How is artist promotion different from music promotion?

Music promotion typically focuses on getting a specific song or release heard — playlist placements, ad campaigns, social posts. Artist promotion takes a broader view: it promotes the artist as a whole, building a career and a fanbase that returns for every release. The distinction matters because a song can go viral without building an artist a career. We coordinate both — promoting the release while building the artist's audience, so each campaign compounds into long-term growth.

Why do I need an artist promotion agency?

Because coordinating a release across streaming, social, advertising, PR, creators, and audience development is a full-time job that requires specialized expertise in each channel. Most artists and managers either do not have the time or do not have the depth of experience across every channel. An agency like Stramasa brings the full team — strategists, ad specialists, PR contacts, creator relationships, and data analysts — so every element of the release is handled by someone who knows that channel inside and out.

Do you work with artists at any stage?

Yes. We work with emerging artists building their first real audience, mid-career artists scaling what works and expanding into new markets, and established artists coordinating sophisticated multi-release campaigns. For emerging artists, we focus on foundational growth — audience building, DSP optimization, and content strategy. For established artists, we coordinate full release ecosystems, international expansion, and advanced data analysis. Every promotion strategy is tailored to your current stage, resources, and goals.

How long does an artist promotion campaign last?

A single-release campaign typically runs 8 to 12 weeks — beginning 4 to 8 weeks before the release date and continuing 2 to 4 weeks after. For artists looking for sustained growth, we recommend ongoing promotion programs that coordinate multiple releases over 6 to 12 months, with each release building on the data and audience from the last. The artists who see the best results are those who commit to a multi-release strategy rather than a single one-off campaign.

How much does artist promotion cost?

Promotion costs depend on your goals, stage, and the scope of work. A focused single-release campaign typically starts at $2,000 to $5,000 per month. Ongoing artist promotion programs with coordinated multi-release campaigns, PR, and creator marketing range from $5,000 to $15,000+ per month. We help you determine the right budget based on your goals and revenue model — and we start with a strategy call to recommend the right approach before any commitment.
