Soundcharts for the Live Industry: How Wizard Promotions use Soundcharts to assess artist value and optimize local event promotion campaigns

A lot of live music professionals face the same challenges. What are the right talents to book, and what are the right venues to host their shows? What cities should we put on our tour route? How do we optimize our local event promotion campaigns? Here's how Soundcharts helps Wizard Promotion to answer those questions:

Wizard Promotion is a legendary concert promotion agency based in Frankfurt. Bringing both well-known and up-and-coming international artists to Germany throughout the years, they've built a reputation of one of the key players on the German live market. However, when it came to the artist data, Wizard Promotions had to go the same route as most of live music industry professionals — that is, before they joined Soundcharts.

With no direct access to proprietary artist data tools like Spotify for Artists, they had to rely on third-parties and partners to get them the data they need. Often, that meant hoping that labels and artists management companies will send over the data tomorrow — while the decisions have to be made yesterday.

Working with both established and aspiring artists, Wizard Promotions has to consider the artist's value in their market — how many tickets can an artist sell, and in which cities? International success doesn't always translate to the local level — and so localized consumption data becomes key to identifying (and making the best use of) the market opportunities.

However, it's not just about strategic planning — Soundcharts also comes into play when it's time to get the local promotion campaigns off the ground. To optimize their tour promo, Wizard Promotions leverages real-time airplay and audience insights, available on Soundcharts.
