❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What Is Micro Indie Radio Promotion?
Micro Indie is IPMNation’s low-cost radio promotion option for independent artists who want to start with a small, targeted campaign.
You choose between 1 and 20 stations at $10 per station, allowing you to control the size and cost of your campaign.
What Types of Stations Will My Music Be Sent To?
Depending on your music, outreach may include:
College radio stations
Independent radio stations
Specialty music programs
Non-commercial stations
Online and internet radio outlets
We select stations based on factors such as genre, format, and fit rather than sending every release to the same generic list.
Does $10 Guarantee Airplay on One Station?
No.
Each $10 represents one station targeted as part of your promotional campaign, not one guaranteed radio play.
Programming decisions are made independently by each station, music director, program director, or DJ.
What Does IPMNation Do for My Campaign?
Your Micro Indie campaign includes targeted station selection, professional outreach, pitching of your music, and tracking of responses and reported activity when available.
Will I Receive Campaign Results?
We’ll provide information we are able to document from the campaign, which may include station responses, reported playlist additions, feedback, or confirmed airplay when available.
Not every station reports its activity, so radio promotion cannot provide the same type of real-time analytics available from digital advertising platforms.
Is Micro Indie Right for Me?
Micro Indie is a good choice if you’re:
New to radio promotion
Working with a limited budget
Testing a new release
Interested in targeting a small number of stations
Not yet ready for a larger managed campaign
If you want to target 50 or more stations with sustained outreach and follow-up, one of IPMNation’s 16-week managed campaigns will usually be the better fit.
Is Airplay Guaranteed?
No legitimate radio promotion campaign can guarantee airplay.
What IPMNation provides is professional outreach designed to give your music a genuine opportunity to be heard and considered by relevant radio programmers.
Ready to Start?
Choose how many stations you want to target — from 1 to 20 — and build a Micro Indie campaign that fits your budget.
Start with one station, test a handful, or target up to 20. If you’re ready for broader, sustained promotion, you can move into one of IPMNation’s 16-week managed radio campaigns.
How Many Stations Should You Choose?
1–5 stations — Test the waters with a very small campaign.
6–10 stations — Expand your outreach while keeping the investment modest.
11–20 stations — Get the most out of Micro Indie before moving into a managed 16-week campaign.
For campaigns targeting 50 or more stations, explore IPMNation’s 16-week managed radio promotion options.
