Yes... ads can be effective. However, you should spend at least 50% of your budget to campaigns in your country. This is a better return on investment because thisn audience can attend your shows, engage online, and buy your CDs. Investing heavily in overseas ads only for streaming purposes and vanity metrics is not a good idea. Personally, I just only spend a small daily budget for international marketing be because I appreciate having listeners from different countries and I might play shows there.... fans are fans no matter where theyre from but... I think running and traffic ads to your profile in your country is more beneficial ( at least most of your budget). Conversion ads on landing pages, in my experience, often lead to wasted time and money. Spending 30-40 cents per stream from an audience unlikely to become fans or attend shows isn't worthwhile.

It's about triggering algorithmic playlists like radio, release radar and discover weekly, after 3 weeks of running an ad campaign months later it's still getting streamed a lot in the algorithmic radioplaylist which wouldn't happened without the ad campaign, it's just a good kickstart for triggering the algorithms

are any of you guys (Dustin and Matt) at liberty to say what KPIs you're looking at to determine if an ad is successful? Are you guys going off of price per conversion and CTR on Meta or the landing page? If you're looking at conversion prices, what would you guys deem as a successful campaign? In my book generally a conversion price of around 40-60 cents in tier 1 markets and a CTR above 2% on Meta and 50% on landing page is a clear indicator that a campaign is successful...appreciate u guys, great interview

I still didn't get Jesse's strategy mentioned at 00:07:50 completely. From my understanding, he posts slideshows on faceless Tik Tok accounts (Top 5 Djent songs for example) having his artist in there and then runs ads on that faceless account? Is that right? I didn't get the first sentence "You have an artist profile on a device that has never touched the artist profile... then somebody (the faceless account?!) going...." Did somebody get that and can explain it to me real quick?

That's not true. That are so many factors that determine a good and bad meta ad/performance. Is your pixel set up correctly, are you using conversion Api, is your landing page intergeated correctly, are you hiting your target audience, are you split testing, what teir countries are you targeting, what's your budget etc. There are so many factors to meta ads that it is very easy to mess up if you don't know exactly what you are doing, meta is designed to take your money if you let it.
