Paid Free Music Downloads are essential components to the discovery, marketing and monetization of emerging music artists.
Description
Paid Free Music Downloads are an essential component of discovery and monetization for our featured artists. Our approach is to pay our featured artists each time visitors to the Cards Cash Rewards website downloads one of their songs as part of our RewardShare+ program. This innovative approach to monetizing music enables our featured artists to scale into cash-flow simultaneous to building out their prospective fans list.
Envisioned as the ultimate “pre-crowdfunding” strategy for music Paidartists, “paid-free” also sets the stage for artists to invest more capital into their marketing and promotions to sell more products. This means that emerging artists can start generating revenues earlier on in their careers, even before they have built up a large following or established a name for themselves in the industry.
Paid-free also helps our featured artists to establish a solid fan base. By offering free music downloads, artists can attract large audiences and connect with their fans on a more personal level. They can also use this as an opportunity to collect information from their fans, which positions them to market their music more effectively in the future.
Through paid free music downloads, featured music artists can demonstrate to potential sponsors and investors they have a loyal following and are strategic partner-ready. Even more, they set the stage for artists to invest more capital into their marketing and promotion, which puts them on a faster brand-building track as they also are creating more music. This creates the virtuous cycle of growth and monetization that enables them to achieve financial stability in the highly competitive music industry.
