How to improve your chances of getting accepted
Submitting your track through PlaylistFeed is your opportunity to stand out. Curators receive many submissions, so making yours clear, relevant, and professional increases your chances of being accepted.
1. Match the Playlist’s Sound
The most important factor is fit. Submitting to playlists that match your genre, mood, and energy is critical.
Do:
- Listen to the playlist before submitting
- Match your song’s tone to the playlist’s vibe
- Avoid sending songs “just to try” if they’re off-brand
2. Keep Your Profile Complete
Before submitting, make sure your PlaylistFeed profile is up to date.
Include:
- A profile picture
- A short bio
- Your Spotify artist link
- Optional: Smart Link or social media
Curators are more likely to trust and respond to artists who look real and professional.
3. Submit a High-Quality Track
Make sure the song you’re submitting is fully finished and streaming-ready.
Best practices:
- Upload only public Spotify links
- Submit a mastered version
- Avoid rough demos or low-volume tracks
First impressions matter — especially in the first 10 seconds of playback.
4. Add a Short, Respectful Message (If Prompted)
If the curator allows a submission message, use it wisely.
Keep it short and relevant. Example:
“Hi, I think this track fits the vibe of your playlist. Appreciate your time and consideration.”
Avoid over-explaining or spamming. One or two sentences is enough.
5. Don’t Resubmit Too Quickly
If your track is skipped or rejected, don’t immediately resubmit the same song to the same curator.
Tip: Focus on submitting to a better match or wait until you have a new release.
6. Be Consistent and Patient
Not every curator will respond or accept your track — and that’s normal. Focus on curating a list of well-targeted playlists and submitting respectfully over time.
