TopHit’s answer is a no-brainer: start working on your next blockbuster. Meanwhile, TopHit will handle promoting your new track. Here’s the game plan:
1. Upload your hit to TopHit.
2. Whip up a short description for the track and a paragraph about yourself. Don’t forget the artwork and be sure to credit the music, lyrics and rightholding. Especially if it’s you. If your TopHit profile doesn’t have your mug, you’re missing out. A hit is dope, but a hit with a "selling" face pic is much better.
3. Ring up your manager at TopHit and drop the bombshell that the International music scene will never be the same. Then tell them you need to test your blockbuster ASAP. Testing on TopHit means radio station music editors, label reps, and your fans will rate your new jam. They won’t get it wrong and will definitely dig the hit. We’re pretty sure your track will snag at least 8 stars, but better to see it in action.
4. Once your track is up for testing, blast the link to your fam, friends, neighbors, and social media followers. They need to hit up TopHit, jam to your song, and give it a thumbs up. This is your fan army ready to get you the max stars. Hardcore fans might downvote other tracks, but TopHit doesn’t endorse that move.
5. The luckiest artists have fans who not only click links but also throw down some cash for their favorite performer. Generous donations will boost your track’s rating and light up your banners on TopHit. This way, even the most clueless internet users will know about your jam and become your fans.
6. The first sign your global music takeover is on track is when your track hits the TopHit Daily Trends on TopHit’s main page. This chart features the most listened to and liked songs of the moment. But don’t get too comfy, as TopHit Daily Trends is just the first step.
7. Earning extra stars won’t be easy. Here’s a hot tip: the heaviest ratings come from radio station music editors and streaming platform playlist curators. They listen to tons of new songs daily and have a sixth sense for hits. If radio stations like your track, a high rating is in the bag. If you know a music editor at a radio station, you're damn lucky. Tell them they need to check out TopHit, listen to, and like your track.
8. In 2-3 days, you’ll know if your rocket is shooting for the stars or "Houston, we have a problem". If your talent isn’t recognized right away, no worries. You’ve got a whole album of hits to promote. Call your TopHit manager, discuss your options, and they’ll guide you on the best steps. If your track’s rating is skyrocketing, it should be sent to radio stations and beyond through TopHit.
We’ll explain how to do this in the next episode!
