Is SubmitHub Good or Bad for Indie Musicians: Interview with the Founder
The New Music Business with Ari Herstand - En podcast af Ari's Take - Onsdage
THIRD EDITION of How to Make It in the New Music Business here: https://book.aristake.comJason Grishkoff started a music blog called Indie Shuffle back in 2007, when music blogs were still cool. After a 3-year stint at Google, he was lucky to take the blog full-time in 2013. From 2014 to 2015 digital advertising in the music industry changed rapidly, and a number of bloggers found themselves looking for alternative sources of income. Many gave up to focus on their day jobs, but Jason decided to double-down on his coding abilities and created a website called SubmitHub, where musicians, labels and publicists could submit their songs to blogs like Indie Shuffle. Flash forward to 2022 and nearly 30 million submissions have been submitted through the platform. Jason still runs the operation as the only developer, and the product is constantly evolving to meet the needs of the modern music promotion industry.07:30 Welcome09:42 Ari’s Take review of SubmitHub15:50 SubmitHub business model / where the curators come from22:46 Submitting playlist campaigns / navigating Spotify's algorithm36:13 Inside Spotify for Artists' playlist data41:39 EveryNoise.com (every genre ever)45:10 Spotify’s personal, algorithmic and editorial playlists56:05 'Hot or Not' feedback feature1:06:40 Instagram / TikTok influencer marketing services1:20:26 Current state of music blogs1:31:50 Final questionSubscribe to The New Music Business: https://aristake.com/nmbAri's Take Academy (use code NMB for 10% off): https://aristakeacademy.comWatch more discussions like this: https://bit.ly/3LavMpaConnect with Ari’s Take:Website: https://aristake.comAcademy: https://aristakeacademy.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/aristake_TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@aris.takeTwitter: https://twitter.com/ArisTakeYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/aristake1 Connect with Ari Herstand:Website: https://ariherstand.comInstagram: https://instagram.com/ariherstandTwitter: https://twitter.com/ariherstandYouTube: https://youtube.com/ariherstandConnect with Jason GrishkoffWebsite: https://www.submithub.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/submithubTwitter: https://www.twitter.com/submit_hubLinkedIn: https://za.linkedin.com/in/jasongrishkoffEdited and mixed by Maxton HunterMusic by Brassroots DistrictProduced by the team at Ari’s Take Hosted on Acast.
