Independent artists, before you drop the next record, make sure the business side is tight.
The music matters, but so does the setup behind it. Publishing, PRO registration, split sheets, SoundExchange, metadata, distribution, release planning, and royalty readiness can all affect how your music is credited, tracked, and monetized.
Ground Up Radio created this Free Artist Publishing & Release Checklist to help artists spot gaps before release day and move with more confidence.
This is for serious artists who want to stop guessing and start building with structure.
Found some gaps in your setup? Book a Zoom discovery call through Ground Up Radio’s Linktree and let’s talk about how to tighten up your publishing, release plan, and next move.
Serious inquiries only.
