Pre-saves are an essential part of an artist's marketing strategy, allowing fans to save a track or album before its official release. Maximizing pre-saves can boost your new releases' visibility and engagement. Symphony Conversions offers a straightforward method to drive pre-saves using the "Increase Link Clicks" playbook with a specific conversion event. Here's how to get started:
1. Set Up Symphony Conversions
First, ensure that Symphony Conversions is configured for your profile:
Go to Symphony Conversions within the Symphony platform, under "Settings" > "Advanced Settings".
Follow the setup flow, including linking your Facebook Conversions API.
This process unlocks the automated marketing playbooks, including the one you'll use for pre-saves.
2. Select the "Increase Link Clicks" Playbook
Navigate to the "Increase Link Clicks" playbook within Symphony.
This playbook is designed to drive traffic and clicks, perfect for pre-saves.
3. Enable Conversions
Make sure that conversions are enabled within the playbook.
This allows Symphony to track specific conversion events tied to your campaign.
4. Paste the Symphony Pre-save URL
Find the Symphony pre-save URL for the track or album you want to promote.
Paste this URL into the designated field within the playbook setup.
This URL will guide fans directly to the pre-save page.
5. Select "Subscribe Fan Success" as the Conversion Event
In the playbook setup on the Account Connections step, look for the "Conversions Event".
Choose "Subscribe Fan Success" from the dropdown. If it's not available, "Create" the event - Symphony's pre-save is automatically configured to track this event when a fan pre-saves and Forever Saves.
If you are using a non-Symphony pre-save, please set this up using your preferred pre-save platform's "Presave" event. If it's not tracked by the pixel or you're unsure of the event name, please reach out to your presave provider to gather info before submitting a campaign.
This specific event allows Symphony to track successful pre-saves, providing you with vital insights into your campaign's performance.
