Very valuable advice

This is the second promo book of Tim which I was asked to review.
What can I say - it's a real game changer for me and my musical projects. Tim has a LOT of really valuable information to share and if you're serious about your music and building an income from streaming, I highly recommend this book.
The best parts for me: instructions on how to make your songs popular on the streaming platforms and advice on making them playlist worthy.
I hope this book will help me get the results I'm after!

Lots of insights and valuable recommendations

I'm a part time musician and (sadly) my music income is not based on live performances. Since I can't play live, I rely mostly on streaming and playlisting to generate a bit of extra $$. Unfortunately, this whole streaming business is a VERY confusing game, if you know what I mean. So many services, so many companies promising overnight miracles for your tracks.

I got this book because it promised to "clear that vagueness of music streaming/playlisting and all that surrounds it". I was not disappointed. The book really covered almost all the questions which I had about getting your tracks streamed and getting on the playlists. It's hard to think how much time & money I wasted focusing on the wrong streaming services in my promotional campaigns!!!

So I recommend this book to EVERYONE who finally wants their records to be successful on Spotify and Apple Music etc. You still need to do all the leg work, but at least the model of success / priorities will be clear to you.

Good luck!
