6-Song Release Strategy with Parallel Promotion

Annual Overview

  • Plan Duration: 52 weeks divided by 6 releases = 8 weeks per release cycle.
  • Consistency: Six major releases per year with time for remixes, mixes, and other platform-exclusive content.
  • Backward Planning: Mark release dates on your calendar and work backward to schedule production, distribution, and promotional tasks.

8-Week Release Cycle

Week-by-Week Breakdown: Each release cycle spans 8 weeks, and tasks will often overlap with the preparation for the next single.
