Our Process

You place your order

Your order is placed and is added to our queue for review. If your order is rejected, we never charge your card. This typically takes 1-2 days.

We pitch your song

We start pitching your song to our playlist network. Curators review your song and decide if they want to share it. This typically takes 3-5 days.

Your song is placed

The curator(s) add your song to their playlist(s) and keep it there until your campaign goal is reached. Songs typically stay on for 2-8 weeks.

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

How do you guarantee streams?

We're able to estimate stream count based on previous campaigns, information from curators, specific songs we have Spotify for Artists access to and 3rd party tools. However it's not a perfect science.

This is why the range is so large on our packages. We don't promise an exact stream count, we promise a range. Every so often we might get things wrong, so please contact us if we ended your campaign early.

Do all songs get approved?

When you place your order we start sending the song to our curators. If we can secure enough approvals, we charge your card and move forward with the campaign.

If we can't secure any placements we cancel your order and never charge your card.

What is your no-charge policy?

We do not charge your credit card until we have approved your campaign. We do this by placing a 7-day payment authorization, and if we are unable to approve your campaign we cancel it and your card is never charged.

How long will my campaign run?

Overall our playlist promotions last 1-3 months depending on campaign size, genre and availability in our playlist network.

Is this safe?

Every curator in our network is vetted. We check their playlists monthly with tools like Chartmetric and Artist.Tools, and we communicate with them regularly.

We take botting and artificial streaming very seriously. If you feel you were added to a questionable list through us, please contact us so we can investigate.

Customer photo review of Spotify Playlist Promotion

I’m extremely happy with the Spotify promotion service offered by Southworth. My monthly listeners have gone up by thousands.

Customer photo review of Spotify Playlist Promotion

Unfortunately the song was playlisted on an Asian playlist instead on an European or US one. Hopefully the other campaigns can target a different audience.

Spotify Playlist Promotion

A good, safe value in a challenging product environment. Dependable.

Spotify Playlist Promotion

We didn‘t get that much streams trough this campaign at First. But the campaign ran over an extended period, which is hey it balanced out. All in all it was a good campaign.

Spotify Playlist Promotion

Sorry guys I did see I big difference on growth from this but not sure how to track this precisely. My full-time job as an electrician, running jobs, plus family life keeps me covered up. My music time is very limited so usually have to reach out for help on certain things this year. One of the main reasons for getting my work mixed and mastered professionally. Not taking the prompt route if you know what I mean. DIY homegrown. Anyhow still have a lot to learn so any advice is welcomed.

Spotify Playlist Promotion

Expected more quality regarding the playlists. Definitely not Indonesian playlists which I had never submitted my songs to.

Spotify Playlist Promotion

Slow to act, unresponsive to questions, extremely low quality/unrelated playlist placements. Probably the most disappointing service experience I've had in a long time.

Spotify Playlist Promotion

You do what you promised, which is to use ads to get traffic. This worked. However, I don't feel at all I got the right kind of people to come to my music, as your ads were very generic, with fireworks on a newyearseve celebrating and a random forrest as the hook, yet my song is about the war in Iran. Nice, all these saves and playlist ads, but this wasn't at all how I wanted my ad creative to go, causing probably random people to hear the music. For 1000 USD, this is of course never profitable or even that helpful. I don't know, I'm just not that satisfied this was the outcome.

Spotify Playlist Promotion

I did two campaigns with Andrew. For the first song, I received 20,000 streams, the high end of what he said he could deliver. I am very happy with that result. For the second song, I used his playlist campaign, coupled with my own advertising efforts, and went from under 1,000 streams to currently over 80,000. Incredible result, and I would happily use it again.

Spotify Playlist Promotion

The campaign was very good but it’s too long ago so we don‘t remember the exact playlists and more details. We only remember that we were happy with the campaign.

Spotify Playlist Promotion

Andrew’s team delivered above and beyond expectations. I highly recommend their service.

Spotify Playlist Promotion

Good experience, no bots. Not all campaigns met their goals, but others worked well. It seems to be a clean, legitimate service with good customer service—I’m quite satisfied.

Spotify Playlist Promotion

Very good getting plays but little movement on followers. Overall though I would use you guys again. Thanks. Carl

Spotify Playlist Promotion

I love Andrew´s content. Did not like the the fact that this was submitted to an Indonesian playlist. I know each song has a different behavior. I just feel it wasn´t worth the money.

Spotify Playlist Promotion

It wasn't worth the worth the money compared to other playlist placements I've used

Spotify Playlist Promotion

Order was as described and gave my stream numbers and followers a boost

Spotify Playlist Promotion

I guess it wasn't what I expected going into it. My song was added to two playlists that weren't really matched with my genre (they contained lots of more mainstream pop). So, while the placements gave some boost to my song's plays, I don't think it necessarily helped in matching my music with an audience who would really connect with it. (Also most of the listeners of these playlists are in Indonesia).

Spotify Playlist Promotion

Very good placement with music that is very close to my realese.

Spotify Playlist Promotion

The team at Southworth was helpful and very responsive! For artists working in more mainstream genres it's an ideal service, but for those working in a more experimental range their services are somewhat limited. It would have been good to know more about their specialization before paying for a campaign. That being said, they were still able to place my music, provided good feedback and were honest in managing expectations.

Spotify Playlist Promotion

The order is still being filled. My genre is Rock and not all that popular with younger audiences. I am fine with it taking time to fill.

Spotify Playlist Promotion

Not a good performance with this campaign. It was delivering approx. 25% of the streams compared to similar services.

Spotify Playlist Promotion

Store owner replied: Hey Jack! Your Spotify playlist campaign is actually still ongoing. Often playlist campaigns, especially smaller ones, can take 8-12 weeks to deliver the stream range. In your case we had to reach back out to the curator to adjust placement in the playlist to push things along faster. Sorry for the inconvenience! Hit us up via email if you have any questions.
