Thanks for your interest in our newsletter sponsored spots. We’re really excited to offer this promotional tool as a way to connect with the Music Clout community.

Right now, I only have 6 spots left to offer. So if you’re interested, please let me know soon.

Here is what you get when you purchase a sponsored spot on one of our newsletters.

You get your news/story/etc featured on one newsletter of ours which is sent out to over 44 thousand subscribers just like you. Music Clout was started in 2012 and since then has curated an amazing list of email subscribers, including bands & artists, A&R’s at labels, managers, publishers, bloggers and so many more.

Your spot can include an image, and your text can be up to 500 characters in length containing hyperlinks to your sites of choice. 500 characters is actually a lot of real estate!

We share all of our newsletters on our social media pages like Twitter and Facebook, so not only do our subscribers view our newsletters, so do thousands of our followers on social media.

Right now, a sponsored spot is $100. 

Take a look below at a couple of examples of a sponsored spot so you have an idea of what’s possible.

I just wanted to follow up with you to see if you’re still interested in purchasing one of our sponsored spots. We have a lot of interest from artists and companies wanting to do this and I only have a limited number of spots available, so if this is something you’re interested in, please let me know soon.

Thank you!

Yes, each of those links were individual newsletters that we sent out. 
 
So if you decide to pay for a sponsored spot, you are paying to be included on (one) of our newsletters. 
 
Thanks,
