Other Promotion Companies offer the Same Promotion Plan to all Musicians !
We CUSTOM DESIGN each Promotion Campaign for Your Music Style !
It is always good to get a referral, but from whom ? See our TAXI.com Referral.
” Never Criticize the Musician, Never Tell the Musician They are Wrong “
this often leads to:
-Wrong Radio Format
-Wrong Choice of Radio Singles
-Wrong Artwork Images
-Amateur Wording on Promotion Materials
Musicians tell us that other Radio Promoters never said anything about the mistakes listed above or anything critical because they are afraid of criticizing the musician.
Honest, Constructive Criticism is best for the success of the Project, musicians who just want their egos fed will not find that from Us.
Radio Promotion Companies’ Strategies Explained:
Standard Radio Promotion Companies offer a Musician/Label a short term fee ( 4-6 WEEKS ) so the client does not have to pay much at the start. This plan is not the best because the promoter only has a limited budget to start with so they cannot start strong.
To achieve the best momentum it’s best to start Strong. This is why Flanagan’s Radio Promotion Campaign Plan starts with an understanding that it is at least a 3-6 MONTH Process to achieve Maximum Momentum & Exposure. National Charting Campaigns especially need a Strong Start because of all the spins that have to be coordinated to achieve Charting, so;
Start Early, Fund Early & Get Great Momentum !
