What is your 'zero-risk' policy all about?
At Partnered Projects, your peace of mind comes first. We don't charge you until we've successfully secured approval for your submission. Instead, we implement a 7-day payment hold. If, within that time, we haven't secured approval for you, your order is automatically canceled.

Spotify Promotion
Questions that apply directly to our Spotify Promotion service.
How does the promotion work?
With the Spotify Growth Music Marketing service, we pitch your song(s) to our extensive network of global Spotify curators - tailored to your genre and mood. Once submitted, sit back and relax as we handle the review and placement process for you. If for any reason we're unable to support your track, you'll receive an immediate refund.
Does every song automatically get approved?
Unfortunately, we can't accommodate every song submission. If, for any reason, our network of curators is unable to support your music, you will receive an immediate refund.
For Monthly Listener campaigns, if you submit your Artist Profile link instead of an individual track, we’ll pitch your catalog to our curators. They’ll select the song that best fits their playlist. This can, at times, improve your chances of approval.
How long does it take before the promotion starts?
After purchasing Spotify promotion, we'll pitch your song to our network of curators within 1-2 business days. They then require an additional 1-2 business days to review and approve submissions. Once approved, it may take 1-5 business days for the curators to place your song on playlists. Delays typically occur at this stage due to the high volume of music vying for playlist spots, leading to occasional queues for playlist placement.
How long will my campaign last?
The duration of the campaign is determined by the playlist curator and can range from 1 month to over 4 months.

How do I see growth from a campaign?
To monitor the streaming activity of your song within each playlist, simply access your Spotify Artist account.
Why was I taken out of a playlist?
Your song receives placement on active playlists for a specified duration determined by the package you've selected. The curator will remove the song according to this predetermined timeline.
My song is not getting enough streams.
The pace of your campaign hinges on various factors with the chosen song and playlist curator placement playing significant roles. While we can't guarantee control over these variables, we commit to fulfilling your song's stream target by the campaign's end.
If your campaign is advancing in a manner that would exceed a maximum timeframe of four months to complete, please send us an email at hello@partneredprojects.com with a screenshot of your Spotify for Artists stats (24 hours and Since 2015), and we will do our best to address this issue.
The playlist that I was placed in is not specific to the genre of my song.
Occasionally, your song may be featured in a playlist encompassing multiple music genres. In such instances, the curator selects your track for placement on a playlist that seamlessly aligns with its overarching theme and musical style.
For instance, a summer playlist might encompass Pop, House, and Indie genres, ensuring your song aligns harmoniously with the overall vibe.
Some of the playlists you sent are not as active as I’d like them to be.
While playlist activity varies, with some being more active than others, rest assured that you'll receive the total number of streams you ordered from these placements combined.
Can you target a specific audience?
Unfortunately, we’re unable to target a specific audience for your song(s). At Partnered Projects, we pitch according to genre and style of music.

Does every song automatically get approved?

How long does it take before the promotion starts?
After purchasing a TikTok Promotion we'll pitch your song to our network of editors and if approved, we can generally get your campaign up and running within 2 business days. That said, we like to allow seven days for pitching to creators, especially for larger orders. You will receive updates from us within one week of purchasing your campaign.

How often will my TikTok Promo dashboard be updated?
Your dashboard will be updated for a total of 60 days. During the first week it will be updated every 6 hours, every 12 hours the second week, every 24 hours the third week, every 48 hours the fourth week, and then twice a week for the last 30 days.
How do I get my song on TikTok?
Most distributors (DistroKid, TuneCore, CD Baby, etc.) distribute your music on TikTok. With this in mind, when you’re releasing a new song through these services make sure you’ve opted in to distribute your music on TikTok. We can only accept orders once the song is available on the app.
What part of my song will be used?
Most distributors (DistroKid, TuneCore, CD Baby etc.) will allow you to customize the section of the song which will be available on TikTok. Once your song has been distributed to TikTok, a one-minute section will be available for video creators to use. Our creator team will analyze the one-minute clip to determine which section has the highest chances of going viral.
What is a TikTok Sound URL?
When a song is distributed to TikTok via a distributor (DistroKid, TuneCore, CD Baby etc.), a song page will automatically be generated. The Sound URL can be found by searching your artist name and song title then navigating to the “Sounds” tab. You can then click on your song name which will take you to a page that looks like this. Simply copy and paste the song link to our website.
YouTube Promotion
Questions that apply directly to our YouTube Promotion service.
How does the promotion work?
With the YouTube Growth Marketing service, we create a bespoke ad campaign through Google and YouTube ads. This means that we will carefully target viewers based on the video’s genre, mood, and visual elements. As the campaign progresses we optimize to ensure that we blast past your minimum view target. If we're unable to support your track for any reason you will be immediately refunded.
Can explicit content be promoted?
This depends on HOW explicit the content is. Showing nudity, drug use, blood, gore, violence, etc. will result in Google/YouTube rejecting your ad for “Shocking” or “Adult” content. However, light swearing or brief/mildly suggestive content is usually approved. If you aren't sure if your song will be approved, feel free to email us!
How long does it take before the promotion starts?
All promotions will start within 3 business days, assuming your video passes Google/YouTube’s advertising policies. All campaigns must comply with these policies, and if they don’t we will work with you to resolve the issue. Sometimes this results in choosing a different video to promote. In these cases, it can take up to 7 business days for a campaign to start.
How long will my campaign last?
This will heavily depend on your package size. Smaller campaigns (5k-10k views) can be completed within one week, while larger campaigns (25k+) can last up to 6 weeks.
Can I have access to the campaign statistics?
Your campaign manager can provide basic details about your campaign, such as views delivered and view rate, but for a more in-depth analysis please refer to your YouTube Studio account.
How long will it take to see views?
Views appear 48 hours after your campaign is live.
Can you target a specific audience?
At Partnered Projects we target according to genre and style of music. If there are certain territories you'd like to target please contact us at the bottom of this page to discuss a custom plan.
Will my content continue to grow after the service?
It’s highly probable that your video will continue to gain streams after the campaign concludes. Our service revolves around this core concept.
These campaigns generate a high volume of views in a short period of time. This boost helps trigger YouTube’s recommendation algorithm to push out your video. As such, these campaigns can land your video in the “Suggested Videos” tab or “autoplay.” Algorithmic traction is the key to long-lasting results.
