Campaign FAQs
When should a holiday campaign start?
Plan the 6–8 week campaign around your release and the seasonal listening window. Prepare rights, recordings and assets early, as some pitching deadlines fall before peak listening.
Does catalog qualify?
Yes. Existing holiday tracks can be reactivated each season.
Is placement on holiday playlists guaranteed?
No. Editorial decisions are made by the platforms; MPT guarantees the pitching and campaign work.
Is 6–8 weeks enough?
It can be for a focused holiday release when rights, recordings and assets are ready. Larger projects may need a separately agreed scope.
Can this repeat annually?
Yes, and it usually gets cheaper and stronger the second year.
No guaranteed placements, streams, charts, nominations, awards, or viral outcomes. MPT guarantees the approved work and reporting in the written scope.
