How to use it to promote your own music<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

While this feature is great for showing off your taste in music and connecting with friends and followers, it can also be utilised as a marketing tool. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Play your own songs<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Whenever you play your latest single or album on Spotify, your followers can see the title in your Note. It\u2019s subtle, but the repetition helps people remember it. Try playing your track in the days after release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlight collaborations<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019ve worked with another artist, producer, or songwriter, play their music to show support. Not only does this promote their work, but it also lets your audience see who you\u2019re connected with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This approach could even spark new collaborations. If another artist notices you listening to someone they admire or have worked with, it might open the door for a conversation – and potentially, a future project together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Share music that inspires you<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Mixing your own music with tracks you love makes your Notes feel authentic. People can see what\u2019s influencing you and might even discover new artists through you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
