Fan Presaves<\/h3> \n

Over 80% of presaves occur within the week an album is announced and the week leading up to its release. Artists have leveraged this by sharing Countdown Page snippets on social media, driving additional presaves. Fans can view a countdown timer to the album\u2019s release date, creating urgency and anticipation.<\/p><\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n \t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t

Increased Streams<\/h3> \n

Nearly 70% of users who presave an album stream it within the week of its release. It’s important to get as much traction as possible on Spotify to bolster up the algorithm. Fans can purchase album-related merchandise directly from the Countdown Page as well as pre-save the album.\u00a0<\/p><\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n \t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
