Press, PR, Marketing Campaign

MUSICIANS / BANDS please DO NOT buy the services below (esp. the Press Campaigns) without firstly speaking to Derek. At least TWO members of the New Found Sound team NEED to ❤️ your music for us to create a Press campaign for you, we ONLY work with artists that our team like musically. Please email us [email protected]

Our Standard Single campaign = £450, this includes us creating an Electronic Press Kit and pitching your music (as below). Additional services can be added (playlists, social media, marketing and more). Playing LIVE, around the same time as when you release your new music increases the possibilities of coverage. We recommend AT LEAST one launch show to coincide with your new single release for example (it is possible with no gigs, just harder). The more gigs you have in the calendar, the more publications, stations and music journalists we can pitch you to, and the more likely it is we'll secure airplay / coverage. As a result, we've teamed up with non-profit UK-wide gig swap network Off Axis, IF you put a gig on sale, we'll automatically apply a discount (see below) so mention this on contact, visit OffAxisGigs.com/join

What's included from New Found Sound:
✅ Full service Press Campaign (inc Radio, Online/Digital, Publications & Playlists)
✅ We Design, Host, Edit and Manage your Electronic Press Kit (EPK), complete with: Biography, Photos, Music (WAVs/MP3s), Press Release, Logos, Posters, QandA (we'll send you questions to build this into the EPK), Videos etc etc
✅ As standard we include:
A SparkAdobe link (you’re entire press kit with one single web link which our agents personally send to our press databases) + we store your assets in both Dropbox and GoogleDrive. These press kits and links are updated regularly, so even when your campaign comes to an end the EPK remains valid for you to send to media
✅ Pitch for editorial coverage ONLINE and in PRINT in national, regional and student media, primarily in the UK (some international publications also targeted)
✅ Pitch for airplay on national, regional and student RADIO stations (mainly UK)
✅ Pitch to Playlists, Podcasts, TV, Video platforms / all new media channels

✅ Up to 6x publicists, based throughout the UK, could be pitching your music
✅ Once your single is live on Spotify, we also add your song to our Playlists and pitch to a minimum 10 targeted playlists (for the PREMIUM campaign we'll also help secure more pre-saves)
✅ ✅ BONUS: if you also join Off Axis, the moment your hometown show goes on sale we'll apply a £50 DISCOUNT on the STANDARD campaign and £100 DISCOUNT on the PREMIUM campaign (+ you'll turn your hometown show into 2x gigs elsewhere, earn 60-70% more £s, you'll co-manage tickets via their App and playing live increases the chances of you securing press coverage, WIN WIN)
