The main takeaway is simple: stop copying artists who are 100x bigger than you.
If you have 1,000 monthly listeners, study artists with 10,000. Look at the campaign structure, creatives, tracking and strategy that helped them reach the next level.
A major artist can afford to spend €1,400 on a campaign without knowing exactly what happens after the click.
Most independent artists cannot.
Your goal should not just be getting cheap clicks. You want to send potential fans to Spotify, measure real conversions, generate saves and repeat listening, and give both Meta and Spotify better data to work with.
