Getting Started with SpaceLoud

Welcome to SpaceLoud! We connect music artists with social media influencers for authentic music promotion.

What is SpaceLoud?

SpaceLoud is your all-in-one music promotion platform. We help artists grow their streams and social media through influencer marketing, playlist promotion, and fully managed Meta (Facebook & Instagram) ad campaigns. Influencers get paid to share music they love on social media, curators earn money placing songs on playlists, blogs, and review platforms, and our team can run paid ads to drive real streams on your behalf. It's an easy, transparent, and secure way for everyone to collaborate and grow their careers.

  • TikTok - Short-form video content
  • Instagram Reels - Short-form vertical video
  • Instagram Stories - 24-hour story format

How It Works

For Artists

1. Sign Up & Subscribe - Create your account and start your 14-day free trial.

2. Choose How to Promote - SpaceLoud gives artists three ways to grow:

  • Campaign ($10 minimum) - Receive personalized offers from influencers
  • Challenge ($250 minimum) - Launch a competition where 35+ creators compete to feature your song
  • Meta Ads ($5–$100/day + $100 management fee) - Fully managed Facebook & Instagram ad campaigns that drive real streams. No creator involvement and no ad account of your own required—our team handles setup, targeting, and daily optimization.

From here, the next steps depend on which option you choose.

If you run a Campaign or Challenge

  1. Receive Offers - Influencers apply to promote your music
  2. Accept, Counter, or Decline - You're always in control of who promotes your music (or leave Campaign Autopilot on, the default, to auto-accept qualifying offers up to your budget)
  3. Review Content - Approve submitted work within 48 hours (or it auto-approves)
  4. Payment Released - Influencer gets paid after approval

If you run Meta Ads

  1. Submit Your Music & Budget - Paste your song link and pick your daily ad spend
  2. We Build & Launch - Our team creates the ad creative, configures targeting, and takes your campaign live (typically within five business days)
  3. We Optimize Daily - We monitor and adjust your campaign throughout its 30-day run—no work required on your end
  4. Track Performance - You get a performance email every 48 hours (impressions, clicks, conversions, CPA) and can view live stats from your dashboard

For paid advertising, see the full Meta Ads guide for budgets, reach estimates, and how the managed service works.
