Wow. This literally changed the game for my marketing. My CPC and CPR dropped drastically using this. I am using more money, and do not quite understand how you are doing it with $1 a day, but still, thank you so much!
You're welcome! Sometimes there is no real explanation, I don't know how it got it, but the conversion is really low and I am getting a good amount of traffic with it on, so I never turn it off. The song is still getting Discovery Weekly boosts
Thank you for this, you opened my mind to the Tier 3 countries, which I was not thinking of, including targeting just the genre interest to keep it broad and open. So far, my ads have been doing super great with .0003 to .0006 cost per engagement, but haven't converted well going from instagram to spotify yet, but you have just helped me see the light with something. The craziest thing is some of my dance videos have 100k to 400k views. Now I can try targeting as you did. I will check out your other videos. Awesome job on this one. I'll do a test and am very grateful to have run into your channel through my research. Thanks again for sharing.
I was promoting my song. If a person clicks on the listen now button on ad, they are then taken to the landing page first. (landing page has many different streaming platforms where they can choose from) then they are taken to the song.
Hey, congrats on getting to DW! Your experience seems to be in line with most people, which is that you need about 10,000 streams in 28 days to make it happen. I'm kinda questioning the basic premise of your video though - you show that you got 256 conversions on your ad. If we make some generous assumptions that all of them became listeners and then listened at your average rate (2.5 streams per listener) then your ads only account for about 650 streams in all. So it's definitely helping, but maybe only a little. What I'm more interested in is how did you grow a big enough active listener base to get those numbers without playlists? That is definitely the real trick.
The purpose and premise of the video is to show that running an ad whether it's $10 a day to $1 a day you can get results and sometimes you get surprised with an algo boost as I did with just running a $1 a day ad. And running this ad had everything to do with getting a boost (not little) if I wasn't promoting my song no one would've heard of it, that's the truth. You keep the ad on it will listeners/streams will compound over time, just keep it on. Results will rise. Simple as that.
@@equalisationmusic Yes, it is possible, I was shocked too. But you have to listen to what I am saying. You can't just start an ad for $1 day (this is what I call the idle / cruise control phase) you must promote your song like normal whatever the budget is once you have a substantial numbers put it down to $1 and then wham bam thank you mam (don't forget to tip) and booya! Obv you need the numbers and people adding the song to playlists (playlist adds is more important than saves)
There are different tiers of country lists 1,2, and 3. 3 being almost all the countries, I have shared the lists in lots of my videos, if you wan to check it out.
Hi! Great video! Have you tried making ads while increasing the cost every day? For example, starting at $1 on the first day, then $2 on the second day, $3 on the third day, and so on until you reach $10. This might make the algorithm think the song is more interesting to more people and trigger the Spotify algorithm to push the track. I'm sure you test many things, so I'm curious if you've tried this approach! 😊
Hi, thank you. I have yet to try to start a lower budget then increase higher. This technique would work if you already had a successful ad in the past that you turned off and then decided to turn on again. But usually I do the opposite, start higher and then decrease the budget. I don't recommend trying this unless you've had a successful ad in the past.
Thats a great approach and i gonna try that myself. May i ask you what video format you choose for the ad ? Are you going with a 4x4, 9x16 or 16x9? Thanks forward
Hey man! This content is so helpful. Question: How much would you charge for a zoom call to help me set up a handful of ads? I’ve been ripped off by agencies in the past but don’t have experience running meta ads myself. I just spent 6 months self-filming a super creative music video I’m getting ready to release with a new single. If there is a better way to contact you as well lmk! Thanks again.
Hi, thanks for your video! I'm promoting french song with french lyrics, do you know if it's very important tu put tier countries in the settings? I thought that english/spanish people doesn't care about the song. What do you think about it?
I don't think it matter if the song is dope. But you won't know unless you try it, that is the only way to find out. But depending on the song it may matter. I can't give you educated answer because I have never tried to promote a song like that.
hey thanks so much for this! I tried it for a couple weeks and would get 2-7 streams per day, compared to your results of a few hundred streams per day - just wondered if you might have any suggestions? I followed the video pretty consistently and did an A/B test on the visual (which is of course different to yours - and my style/market is quite different also). Cost per result in Meta is stated at £0.57. Would love any tips as I'm pysching up for a big release soon which I'd love to follow your 300USD / 10 p/d tutorial for! Thanks so much for your time and consideration - Warmest, alya
Keep an eye on the countries where you budget is being sent and seeing if it is converting to Spotify, also the placements, see if your placements are balanced (there is always one going to be higher , but for example if you want ig and fb and it is only going to fb placements) The results I got took time I stated with the main release spending a few hundred dollars and then after that I put down to $1 You need time for fb to recognized the audience the longer you keep the ad on the better it performs in your favor.
@@zmanzbrah Hey thank you for your quick reply and sharing of knowledge! So what would you say are the right statistics for an ad that is just starting out? As I'm happy to spend that couple hundred but just don't want to be spending it in the wrong way and not getting results : ' )
@@alyaminney4403 every song is going to vary and depends on your daily budget. So, it is very hard to say, the more you do it the more you will know what is working and what isn't. But if you are getting playlist ads and saves daily, I find that is the most important. I am sorry but I can't give a definite answer.
@@zmanzbrah No worries at all! I appreciate the support you have provided! Yeah not enough views for playlist ads and saves I dont think... will keep trying ...
I'm seeing lots of non tier 3 countries in your targeting. I'm wondering if you went strictly tier 3 would you still get the algo boost if 90% of your streams were coming from low quality countries. Sometime that might need to be tested.
Yes, I mention in this ad it is a tier 3 campaign (tier1-3) In the beginning when I first released the song I targeted tier 2 (1-2 countries), but ever since I kept it in the idle mode of $1 a day I have had it set to tier 3. I have noticed I have been getting results via ads manager and Spotify so I keep it on and I am still getting discovery weekly pushes to this date since making the video. Ultimately, if you are getting good results in Spotify (playlist ads, saves, streams ,etc) then that is your indicator things are solid.
Hi! It seems that you got that amount of streams mainly because you got into the Discover Weekly and not because of the ad itself, which you only got about 250 clicks... The big question is, if that boost you have with paid ads helped the track to get into the Discover Weekly or if it has nothing to do with it... Cheers!
The ad had everything to do with it! 100% The song would have never gotten into DW without a push. Without it no one would have listened to the song, period.
It all depends, sometimes you may have great results right off the bat. Other times could spend 2,3,400 us dollars before getting amazing results and getting a conversion where you are happy. Every song and release is different and a lot of variables go into play, so I am sorry there is no right answer here.
hey just wanted to check - are you linking directly to the song on Spotify or to a playlist with the song on it? I only have a couple songs out for example and am only interested in people listening to this one
Can someone help me with the ads? In ads manager it says that I get conversions. But in Spotify for artists I don’t get streams. Last 8 hours, I got 30 conversions but only 2 streams on Spotify. Why is that? Should I include an Apple Music link too? All I’m thinking is that maybe people use Apple Music and they didn’t find it there so they clicked Spotify. I don’t know what to do. I just waste my money right now
Is it worth running ads for a fire song that I posted 5 months ago? Right now I'm doing a facebook ad for it on $2 a day, its preforming well with a $0.07 per click! Should I keep running it or should i stop the ad since the song dropped 5 months ago? Any advice would help!
It is never too late to promote songs. I have ran ads on songs that are over a year old and the got into the algorithm. A song is new to the world because most of the world hasn't heard it.
@@zmanzbrah Aye thanks so so much for the advice!! i have another question, why is it that it says i got 70 clicks on link but on spotify for artist only 7 new listeners?
@@johnnye_music There is probably something wrong with the ad, it might be your country list. That would be the first thing I would check. Go into ads manager and look at most amount spent from highest to lowest and then click countries and I am thinking your budget is going to one or two countries that you need to get rid of.
@@johnnye_music Link click doesn't mean they will listen to the song just means they clicked to get to the song they still need to listen for 30 seconds
My question is what do you do where it says set up a conversion? And can you just send them straight to a Spotify link or do you need to have the link on a website?
You are going to send them to a website. And yes a landing page because you need to have it integrated with your fb pixel so you can see the data. You could just put a Spotify link but then you would have no data on how the ad would be performing.
Another reason you wouldn't want to send traffic directly to a spotify page is because landing pages help filter out bots. Once a bot reaches your landing page, they will have no idea what to do and won't do any actions that count as conversions. If you you send straight to a spotify page you can't track the data and Facebook will just keep pushing your ad to more and more bots because they are simply opening your spotify link (not listening to your music), therefore the Facebook algorithm thinks the ad is doing great with that demographic
@@Dakkyboi thanks for that info, huge help. So let me ask you this. Probably a dumb question but I used to have a website, not to thrilled about opening up another one. I was doing some google research and saw that I can actually have just a single landing page instead of a full blown website. Is this true? Is it ideal?

Are there other ways to promote besides facebook ads that are just as effective ? , I think spotify has their own promotion you can pay for too.
@@zmanzbrah i know tier 3 is around the world, but for example germany is a tier 1 country. . Here is a list of Countries Tier 1 : USA Kanada Germany UK Australia Japan France Swiss Netherlands Sweden Tier 2: China India Brasil Russia Mexico Turkey South Africa Indonesia South Korea UAE Tier 3: Nigeria Egypt Bangladesh Pakistan Kambodscha Kenia Philippines Vietnam Uganda Myanmar
@@Trippyleaks Nah brahhhh your list is all over the place. Tier 3 is totally wrong, I do not recommend targeting any of those countries. Japan is not a tier 1, its' part of tier 2 and your tier 2 list is a mess as well. Most of those countries don't belong tier 2. Please do some research before posting such nonsense. Your tier 1 is the only list that is accurate with regarding Japan on that list.
@@zmanzbrah i used chatgpt to make stats for the countries, based on their economys. because there is no single approved list of countries that fall into Tier 1, 2, and 3. Everyone determines this for themselves. In addition, countries can migrate between tiers. We living in a fast world. also you should mention here, that countires that are into a kind of tier 3 may have a lower part of ppl with a spotify premium subscription. And the thing is, that if a non premium user clicks your spotify link on mobile device, there is no garantee that he directly plays your song, because spotify unfortuntaly do this radio thing by random.
Is it normal for ads to be expensive when you start running them? I started 6 hours ago and my cost per view content is 0.7€. All the ads say Learning. Will this get cheaper?
@@billt3031 I would recommend that yes. Reason being is once you edit things like that it can affect the learning phase and basically make the ad restart again. You want to let the ad learn what it needs to do first before fiddling with things
@@zmanzbrah thanks for your content loving it so far! I can't help but notice that all of this pixel linking to WordPress/Shopify etc are all paid plans. Is there any platform which provides for free or do I have to pay? Because I don't even know how useful this wordpress like this would be any useful in the future if I'm paying for it. 🤔
I was hoping you'd show the countries that clicked on it a lot. You say it's Tier 3, but it looks like you also included Tier 1 & 2 countries. Does it mean the ads were only going to Tier 3 countries? Can you name 3 countries that worked best for this? Thank you
Hi, yeah what I mean when I say tier 3 it's all the countries combined 3,2 and 1 tiers, my apologies if that was confusing. Usually when you have tier 3 you won't get much adspend toward tier 1 and 2 because countries like Mexico, Colombia will suck up most of the budget. Here is the top 10 countries From highest Amount spent to lowest: Mexico 54 results, CPR: .15 amount spent (AS) $8.22 Argentina: 45 results. CPR .13 AS $5.68 Colombia: 27 results, CPR .17 AS $4.56 South Africa: 25 results CPR .17 AS $4.16 Brazil: 18 results CPR .17 AS $3.13 Chile: 9 results, CPR .31 AS $2.78 Turkey: 7 results, CPR .26 AS $1.79 Hungary: 5 results CPR .26 AS $1.31 Bulgaria: 4 results CPR .26 AS $1.05 Romania: 7 results CPR .14 AS $1.00
@@wowellthisnew start out around $10-20 leave on for a few days and get past the learning phase, then gradually lower until you are happy with the results. The conversion should go down as you decrease it from 10, to 5 to even $3 a day.
@@NathanTaylor987 okay, you will need to set up a website to run conversion campaigns and link it with fb.There are a lot of videos on YT about this, I recommend searching that field and you can get set up.
It could be anything, so many variables, could be the country list, could be the song, could be the ad visual you are using, could be your targeting demographic, anything you just have to experiment, wait, be patient and see if any results come in, if none then start making some minor changes
Now go find an spotify revenue calculator and realize he just spent ~$47 to get ~$35 off spotify. I mean i guess it's a thing that has to pick up over time and maybe lead to greater things and actual fans, but you're definitely operating at a loss here.
I never said anything about making money here, and if I am doing my math correctly, I am losing $12 ... big deal, haha. At least the music is getting out there and people are listening versus a big whopping zero listeners.
@@zmanzbrah Yeah so exactly what I said, its a start to get yourself out there, its not a cost effective marketing strategy though. Usually when marketing you want your marketing to return profit, not put you into a deficit.
@@GoddaryuTUBE This is music marketing, do your research. If anyone tells you that they will make you money off "music" marketing they are lying to you. Ofc we all want to make money off our music but streams is not it, their are so many other outlets. And I think you are missing the point of the video. This has nothing to do with making money or ROI.
He gave it the boost for the algorithm to kick in. He actually likely will make his money back now that Spotify algorithmic streams are going to continue to drive him streams with ads no longer running. This is something that people do not get. I made over 15 grand on a 1500 ad because the algo took over after I gave it the boost.
@@jamesdpterodactyl3068 I don't really do playlisting other than the reviews I have done, lol. And all of which haven't been very good results in the long term, short term you get streams and that is all, It is a great way to bump up your popularity song score while running ads to help you get it up there so you can get an algo boost, but to solely promote your music, I highly don't recommend it.
Tried your method, so far pretty nice results! Thanks :)

What happens f you put more that 1 dollar say like 10 dollars , will it go higher, whats your experience in this ?
you get better and more results, this is just to showcase that you can get results with $1 I always recommend spending more if you can
@@zmanzbrah I have seven albums distributed through distrokid but never promoted it and when I cane across your video , I decided I'm going to give it a try. Are there other ways to promote besides facebook ads that are just as effective ? , I think spotify has their own promotion you can pay for too.
your countries are all tiers. USA is Tier 1 for example. thats heavy.
Yes, this I mention in the video this is a tier 3 campaign, which is majority of the countries around the world.

@@Trippyleaks Nah brahhhh your list is all over the place. Tier 3 is totally wrong, I do not recommend targeting any of those countries. Japan is not a tier 1, its' part of tier 2 and your tier 2 list is a mess as well. Most of those countries don't belong tier 2. Please do some research before posting such nonsense. Your tier 1 is the only list that is accurate with regarding Japan on that list.
@@zmanzbrah i used chatgpt to make stats for the countries, based on their economys. because there is no single approved list of countries that fall into Tier 1, 2, and 3. Everyone determines this for themselves. In addition, countries can migrate between tiers. We living in a fast world.
also you should mention here, that countires that are into a kind of tier 3 may have a lower part of ppl with a spotify premium subscription. And the thing is, that if a non premium user clicks your spotify link on mobile device, there is no garantee that he directly plays your song, because spotify unfortuntaly do this radio thing by random.

Greetings!
Is it normal for ads to be expensive when you start running them? I started 6 hours ago and my cost per view content is 0.7€. All the ads say Learning. Will this get cheaper?
Yes, leave it for at least 4 days or so and then check the stats. Don't edit anything until then
@@planeguy95okay, thanks. If I want to lower the daily price, do I have to do it after the 4 days?
@@billt3031 I would recommend that yes. Reason being is once you edit things like that it can affect the learning phase and basically make the ad restart again. You want to let the ad learn what it needs to do first before fiddling with things
@@planeguy95okay, I got it. Thanks for the help bro!!!!
@@planeguy95okay thanks. I will follow your advice. Thanks for helping me out!!!!
Is providing meta pixel info mandatory?
Yes~
@@zmanzbrah thanks for your content loving it so far! I can't help but notice that all of this pixel linking to WordPress/Shopify etc are all paid plans. Is there any platform which provides for free or do I have to pay? Because I don't even know how useful this wordpress like this would be any useful in the future if I'm paying for it. 🤔
You have any way someone can work with you on getting you to set up and run their ads?
@@zmanzbrah it’s telling me address not found
@@reem3530 oh sorry at zmanzbrah@gmail.com brain fart
I was hoping you'd show the countries that clicked on it a lot. You say it's Tier 3, but it looks like you also included Tier 1 & 2 countries. Does it mean the ads were only going to Tier 3 countries? Can you name 3 countries that worked best for this?
Thank you
Hi, yeah what I mean when I say tier 3 it's all the countries combined 3,2 and 1 tiers, my apologies if that was confusing. Usually when you have tier 3 you won't get much adspend toward tier 1 and 2 because countries like Mexico, Colombia will suck up most of the budget.
Here is the top 10 countries From highest Amount spent to lowest:
Mexico 54 results, CPR: .15 amount spent (AS) $8.22
Argentina: 45 results. CPR .13 AS $5.68
Colombia: 27 results, CPR .17 AS $4.56
South Africa: 25 results CPR .17 AS $4.16
Brazil: 18 results CPR .17 AS $3.13
Chile: 9 results, CPR .31 AS $2.78
Turkey: 7 results, CPR .26 AS $1.79
Hungary: 5 results CPR .26 AS $1.31
Bulgaria: 4 results CPR .26 AS $1.05
Romania: 7 results CPR .14 AS $1.00
This is very good insight I appreciate you
@@wowellthisnew You're welcome, I am happy I can help! Good luck with the music!
@zmanzbrah did u ever do daily budget for the video of 200k streams? What would a good "daily budget" be for $300
@@wowellthisnew start out around $10-20 leave on for a few days and get past the learning phase, then gradually lower until you are happy with the results. The conversion should go down as you decrease it from 10, to 5 to even $3 a day.
Do you think this method can work on SoundCloud too?
I have put SC on my landing page with Spotify, Apple, etc and I get a fair amount going to SC, not a lot but I do get some traction.
@@zmanzbrah Good to hear! Thanks
can you run these ads with the instagram interface? or does it have to be on FB
No, you must set up everything through FB.
@@zmanzbrah why
So you are saying to bet that $1 daily one has actually start with $200 or $100 a month then once u see results reduce it to $1 daily?
Yes, I would not recommend to start a $1 ad without some momentum. Have a larger budget, yes, and then scale down and put it in that $1 idle mode.
Can you run the $1 ad on Tier 1/2?
Yes, I am running a $1 ad for tier 1/2 now here is the video:ruclips.net/video/gMmYvGIo5yk/видео.htmlsi=9ilutxbunPK2NHo2
It says I’m not eligible for promotion. What do you have to do to become eligible?
I am not sure why, do you have a website linked with business suite to run conversion ads with fb?
@@zmanzbrah I do not
@@NathanTaylor987 okay, you will need to set up a website to run conversion campaigns and link it with fb.There are a lot of videos on YT about this, I recommend searching that field and you can get set up.
@@zmanzbrah okay thank you
What is tier 3 mean?
It means the country list. Tier 1 mostly 1st world countries, tier 2 a little more countries to that list tier 3 is even more countries on that list.
@@zmanzbrah Thanks!! Super helpful!
@@hbinfinity You're welcome!
I need help on my new release
You can email me and hopefully I can help you. zmanzbrah@gmail.com
@@zmanzbrah thanks 🙏 bro
So im running an ad to tier 3 countries, however, with the click throughs I'm getting. I'm getting no streams.is there a fix for this?
It could be anything, so many variables, could be the country list, could be the song, could be the ad visual you are using, could be your targeting demographic, anything you just have to experiment, wait, be patient and see if any results come in, if none then start making some minor changes
Now go find an spotify revenue calculator and realize he just spent ~$47 to get ~$35 off spotify. I mean i guess it's a thing that has to pick up over time and maybe lead to greater things and actual fans, but you're definitely operating at a loss here.
I never said anything about making money here, and if I am doing my math correctly, I am losing $12 ... big deal, haha. At least the music is getting out there and people are listening versus a big whopping zero listeners.
@@zmanzbrah Yeah so exactly what I said, its a start to get yourself out there, its not a cost effective marketing strategy though. Usually when marketing you want your marketing to return profit, not put you into a deficit.
@@GoddaryuTUBE This is music marketing, do your research. If anyone tells you that they will make you money off "music" marketing they are lying to you.
Ofc we all want to make money off our music but streams is not it, their are so many other outlets. And I think you are missing the point of the video. This has nothing to do with making money or ROI.
@@GoddaryuTUBEthis shit went over yo head pay attention again
He gave it the boost for the algorithm to kick in. He actually likely will make his money back now that Spotify algorithmic streams are going to continue to drive him streams with ads no longer running. This is something that people do not get. I made over 15 grand on a 1500 ad because the algo took over after I gave it the boost.
Would u recommend both instagram and facebook when setting up an ad
Also what are your thoughts on playlisting for youtube music
@@jamesdpterodactyl3068 I don't really do playlisting other than the reviews I have done, lol. And all of which haven't been very good results in the long term, short term you get streams and that is all, It is a great way to bump up your popularity song score while running ads to help you get it up there so you can get an algo boost, but to solely promote your music, I highly don't recommend it.
Yes, I usually always do placements from both platforms. Plus I want to build my following on all platforms, more the merrier, in my opinion.
