Setting Up Your Influencer Profile

Optimize your profile to attract more artists and opportunities.

Choosing Your Role

During sign-up, you'll choose one of three roles:

• Influencer — Promote music on social media (TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, etc.)
• Curator — Place and review music on playlists, blogs, and review platforms
• Both — Offer social media promotion and curator placements

Your role determines which onboarding steps you see and what appears on your profile. You can always add curator channels later from Settings → Curator Channels.

Chose "Curator" or "Both"? See our Curator Guide for channel setup and curator-specific workflows.
