 Hey everybody what's going on it's your man Kory welcome to the Digital Dash I'll be giving you guys tips on how to market your songs and get those numbers booming. Now for those of you who don't know who I am I'm a digital marketer myself. I specialize in helping artists like you guys get their songs heard through platforms like Spotify, Instagram, YouTube and a bunch of others. So what I want to talk to you guys about today is something special something that's been coming for a very long time. If you follow Facebook at all then I'm pretty sure that you've been seeing that for the past couple of months they've been hiring a bunch of music licensing people and striking deals with publishing companies. So as of this week it is finally possible for you to monetize your music on Facebook and Instagram. If you're an artist who distributes their music through Zoom card that means that you recently got their email from their CEO Scott Ackerman which reads I'm excited to announce that Facebook has officially launched music monetization on their platforms. This means that independent artists will now get paid for allowing Facebook to use their music across Facebook and Instagram. Through this partnership you will get paid for allowing billions of users across Facebook and Instagram to use your music in their organic content. Fans will also be able to find your music through an audio library featured and use it in the content they create to share across Facebook's platforms. So there it is guys straight from the horse's mouth. So what I want to do is walk you guys through the process of setting this up so that those of you who do have tune court can go ahead and start monetizing your music today. With that being said let's get right into it. Alright guys so here we are inside of the tune court dashboard and I promise you this is going to be really simple really quick. It'll take you about 30 seconds to go ahead and do this and you'll be on your way to making money from your music actually being shared on Instagram and Facebook. So the first thing that you'll want to do is come over here to where it says video monetization and what this should do is bring down the drop box and what you'll want to do is click on Facebook monetization. So next what it'll do is bring it to a screen where it says send your music to Facebook and from here you can go ahead and get all of your songs that you already have uploaded to your tune court account monetized for Facebook. So as you see here in this little corner you can just go ahead and send all of your songs or if for some reason you just wanted to do it one song at a time you would just come down here to these side bars and just click them if they're gray they're unmonetized if they're blue they're already being monetized and there it is guys it's how simple it is it really is that easy. So I would recommend that those of you who do have a tune court account to go ahead and set this up like I said so you can go ahead and start making money from people who are actually sharing your songs through Instagram and through Facebook. Now what I would recommend for you guys who can do it is to go ahead and set up all your songs to be monetized on Facebook and Instagram and start figuring out ways that you can make your song go viral through those platforms so that it becomes another source of income for you. For those of you who can do it yet like for those of you guys who don't have tune court don't worry as I'm sure that these other distribution services will soon offer this as once somebody starts doing it the others come along and start offering it as well. Now as always guys if you feel like you learned anything today please like and share this video hit those post notifications as well as I wouldn't want you all to miss anything. With that being said once again my name is Kory and I'll see y'all next time.
