It seems counterintuitive, but my sales have increased 12% since starting with GetMusic, which suggests that many music fans swap out their digital copies for physical formats.
I'm super pleased. You've almost doubled my followers, and surprisingly, I got a fair number of sales, too!
I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I use @GetMusicfm because it's the easiest way to share my songs with people who love music. It's also a great way to find music for my weekly indie music show on @audiomiragepdx radio!
It definitely helped me get more listens and follows and I really appreciate the reposts on my Twitter as well. It brings awareness to my page and I love that.
GetMusic.fm is a super useful way to get new people engaged in your music on Bandcamp!
I honestly cannot remember how I functioned as an indie artist without GetMusic. In fact, the site does so much of the work for me, I've actually let my other promotional activities slide! For a long time I was a "Free" or "Pay What You Want" artist, but had little traction. Even though listeners getting codes through GetMusic is still technically free, there's a psychological reward when cashing tokens for music you'd normally pay for. Just by offering codes through GetMusic, my listeners have grown by 70% or more. Along with providing links to song downloads, GetMusic is constantly popping up on the socials with graphics of new releases, either solo or grouped with other new tracks. I myself am often drawn to new music thanks to these arresting graphics. GetMusic's stats are also great for reposting and reminding listeners of your newest tracks or albums. Along with Bandcamp, GetMusic is an essential tool for the indie artist.
This site is cool. It just has Bandcamp download codes for tons of new albums that bands upload themselves. It's great for finding new songs, getting valid codes, and building up a Bandcamp if you're an artist.
I used GetMusic to build the Bandcamp fanbase a bit in advance of my next album release. I made 100 codes available and shared this across X and FB groups. All codes were gone in under a week, I sold more physical copies in a day than ever before and grew the fan base. Win!
Using free codes to promote my band got me about 100 followers and 100 listeners on BandCamp and i spent about $12.00. So its worth it!
