Features & Details

100% Real Traffic

Rise doesn’t utilize or associate with any software or practices that inflate engagement, fake activity, use click farms, or any other disingenuous methods. We won’t be giving away any iPhones or cash to get you visitors.

All campaigns utilize premium digital Ads delivered from your account in tandem with ads from Rise.

How do they fit into Rise’s other Spotify Campaigns?

We recommend running Active Listener Campaigns in tandem with Spotify Exposure & Conversion Campaigns. Exposure campaigns of $750+ enroll you in automatic 3rd-party playlist pitching to our vetted partners.

Active Listener campaigns can be effective as standalone campaigns when run as a subscription for a higher dollar amount (review above case study for our spend/results).

Build A Loyal Audience

Rise’s Active Listener Campaigns convert social media traffic into high-intent listeners on Spotify using a creator’s own content. Connecting you to listeners who stream your music 2x more, add your music to their personal playlists, save, follow, and ultimately impact the algorithm all while using your own branded content. The content you use will also see an increase in engagements. High intent behaviors like the ones listed above increase your chances of algorithmic play on Radio, Release Radar, and even Discover Weekly. Active listeners also support artists beyond streaming. They’ll show up to your live shows, buy merch, and act as your street team by sharing your music with friends.
What is an active listener?

Spotify defines Active Listeners as: "Those who intentionally stream an artist's music within the last 28 days from active sources.” Active sources include: artist profile, album or release pages, the listener's own playlists, library, or queue.
Why do they matter?

Active Listeners are small but mighty. An active audience can be a small fraction of your total audience, but make up the majority of streams. They’re also more likely to follow your socials, buy merch, and see your live show! FACT: Active Listeners make up only 33% of total audiences, but account for 60% of streams and 80% of merch sales on Spotify. This means Active Listeners stream 2x more than passive audiences.
High-Intent Actions

Active Listeners contribute to important metrics like multiple streams per listener, song saves, adds to personal playlists, and follows, which give positive signals to Spotify’s Algorithm.
Long-Term Benefits

Active Listeners from a catalog often return to that music via their own playlists. This behavior can lead to increased play on Radio, Autoplay, and Discover Weekly.

How It Works

Create Your Campaign

Rise will use one of your Instagram Reel posts as an ad creative, which will increase engagements on your reel while also driving a hyper-targeted active listener to your song on Spotify.

Your IG Reel will be shown to new listeners with a “Listen Now” button and a custom link to your music on Spotify, which helps us optimize the ads for Active Listener growth.

From our campaign creator, Select “Artist” then “Spotify Campaign” and we’ll guide you through the rest.

What content performs best?

Our favorite content right now: short vertical videos with lyrics on screen, and an intro hook with text. The first 3 seconds matter most!

Animating the text so it pops up as the words are sung can be a nice touch!

Pricing & Guarantees

Active Listener Campaigns start at $500, and can be set up to target a Big 5 (US, CA, AU, NZ, GB) or Global Audience. To see pricing and estimated results, go to our Create page: rise.la/create

FAQ

How long is a campaign?

When you create your campaign, an estimated timeframe will be displayed. The number of days will change automatically based on your campaign type and budget.

What's included in the cost?

Everything. Your budget is fully inclusive to obtain the results advertised. There will be no hidden fees, percentages of ad-spend, or other old school costs to worry about.

What are Engagements?

Engagements are video views, likes, comments, shares, profile visits, or other valuable interactions from people who discover your content.

Do you guarantee a specific number of Followers?

Rise does not guarantee specific follower numbers, and any company or person who does are violating the terms of service. We strongly discourage participating in that type of activity, as it could jeopardize your account and inevitably add bot followers to your account.

Engagement campaigns guarantee a specific number of Impressions and Engagements.

What is the ad targeting and can I change it?

Campaigns are advertised to the markets with the highest engagement. What that means is advertising where data tells us people are most likely to listen and take high value actions like Likes, Comments, Shares, and Follows. This is based on the data we have available at scale. This changes frequently according to new data and trends.

What content will be used for the ads?

All creative for Engagement campaigns must be posted to your feed prior to creating the campaign on Rise. You’ll input the link to your promoted post when you setup your campaign.

How do I know the results are from Rise?

Rise campaigns are tracked with internal analytics tools to ensure you are getting the results from your campaign. Even if you have other paid or organic growth simultaneously, your results will be tracked separately with Rise.

No, we will never ask for your passwords or directly access your accounts. You will provide secure advertiser access via Facebook Business Manager.

What is the refund policy?

Refunds are accepted prior to the campaign going live. After that, the funds are committed to the campaign for the duration and cannot be refunded.
