RADIO PLUGGING CAMPAIGN PERFORMANCE
case study

Syndicast is a radio plugging platform that helps record labels generate global reach and boost royalty revenues by providing validated airplay.

In the past few years we have plugged a large amount of songs and worked with all kinds of record labels from small indies to majors. In this case study we would like to showcase some results generated via Syndicast. 

We gathered the results of 3 campaigns, from 3 different types of labels and artists. Furthermore, in the “download to broadcast” sections you can also check the exact elapsed time between the first radio downloads and the first broadcasting time in case of the different campaigns. We have used real data from previous campaigns without revealing the names of our clients.

Challenge

To promote/plug new releases to radio stations, generate global reach and awareness as well as to boost royalty revenues

Solution

To run a global radio plugging campaign that reaches as many radio stations in as many countries as possible

Tools used

Syndicast’s radio plugging platform with in-system promotional tools, Artist ID and customisable power intro production, made from the track and recordings that we receive from the artists

Validation

Third-party airplay monitoring data received by an industry standard music airplay monitoring service used by all major record labels and radio stations worldwide

Summary

The track has been downloaded by 130 unique radio stations from 42 countries via Syndicast and generated an estimated number of 7237 radio plays. Besides the radio stations that accessed the track through Syndicast, 15 stations received it from other sources.

Syndicast contributed an extra 130 radio stations to the total number, which is 90% of all the stations that played the track.

Conclusion

According to the case study, it’s clearly visible that Syndicast can help promote the releases of different kinds of labels and artists. With the help of the radio plugging service, releases can reach bigger radio stations and networks such as Radio Energy (NRJ), Radio FG, Kiss FM, Delta, Sunshine Live, Hit Radio. 

Also, as the core radio user base is smaller and mid-sized terrestrial/local FM/online stations are usually not covered by regular pluggers, Syndicast can offer access to these stations on a global scale. Based on the evidence of previous campaigns, mid-sized stations are also more open to play tracks from lesser known artists.
