The Tiered Release Experience

Frame your next release with tiered offerings to maximize engagement and revenue.

Map out a hypothetical release campaign that incorporates different value tiers, moving beyond a single streaming link to create a multi-layered experience for your audience.

The plan, day by day

1. Day 1Define the Core Offering. For your next song, outline the standard, free experience: the song on DSPs, one social media post announcing it, and a music video on YouTube.
2. Day 2Design the Mid-Tier. Brainstorm a valuable, low-cost offering tied to the release. Examples: a digital download with two exclusive demo tracks for $5, or a limited-run poster for $20.
3. Day 3Conceptualize the Premium Tier. Design a high-ticket item or experience for a small number of superfans. Examples: a signed, numbered vinyl test pressing with a personal note for $150, or a virtual listening party and Q&A for $50.
