How to Run a Spotify Pre-Save Campaign That Actually Works
You’ve got a new song or album coming out.
You want fans to hear it the moment it drops.
The best way?
A Spotify pre-save campaign — powered by smart links and data.
Here’s how to launch a pre-save that drives real results (not just vanity numbers).
🚀 Step 1: Create a Smart Pre-Save Link
Skip the clunky pre-save forms.
With MusicBizQR, you can:
- Add your Spotify pre-save
- Include a teaser (video, image, or embedded song)
- Link to merch or ticket sales
- Collect fan emails
- Track everything
All on one branded page — with a QR code built in.
📅 Step 2: Launch Your Campaign 2 Weeks Before Release
Give yourself time to:
- Build momentum
- Post reminders
- Engage your fans
- Let the algorithm work in your favor
Promote your smart pre-save link or QR on:
- IG stories + bio
- TikTok + YouTube
- Posters + flyers
- Your website or link-in-bio
Pro Tip: Use MusicBizQR’s QR code on printed promo and packaging to link directly to your pre-save.
📊 Step 3: Track Who Engages (and Where)
With MusicBizQR analytics, you’ll know:
- How many fans visited your pre-save page
- Where traffic is coming from
- What time fans are engaging
- If they clicked your pre-save or merch
No more guessing what worked.
🎧 Step 4: Flip the Page to Stream on Release Day
The magic of MusicBizQR:
You don’t need a new QR code or link.
Just update the smart page to:
- Replace “Pre-save” with “Stream Now”
- Embed your new Spotify release
- Show music video, merch, and more
Your fans don’t even notice the switch — but your streams go up.
📈 Step 5: Use the Data to Fuel Ads + Future Drops
Your pre-save page becomes a goldmine of insight:
- Retarget fans who clicked but didn’t follow
- Run ads in cities where interest was highest
- Schedule your next release based on actual traffic data
You’re not just launching a song.
You’re building a fan funnel that scales.
