Quick Tips: Artist hacks for Amazon music

I've watched and read hours of Amazon Music training to deliver you these insights for you to read in just under a minute! Here is everything you need to know:

1. You can pitch a new song to Amazon music for curation. Even if you aren't accepted, your fans will be notified of its launch
2. You can link your Amazon Artist profile and Twitch account and your fans will be notified when you livestream on Twitch
3. You can sell Artist Merch using Amazon's Merch on Demand service and your amazon music followers will receive merch release notifications
4. Your songs will show up in your genre's radio rotation more often for the day if many people ask Alexa to listen to your song on the same day. Check the Amazon Music for Artists app's "Daily voice index". Amazon encourages artists to use social media to push fans to ask Alexa to play your tracks as a form of promotion
5. You can leave an audio message for fans via Alexa using Spotlight. Alexa will suggest listening to your spotlight when your music is asked for, or fans can say "Alexa listen to (your name)'s spotlight".

If you haven't already started to make use of these tools, you should download the Amazon for Artists app and set up your artist profile.
