I'm Switching from a Different Distribution Company to Jumpstr. What's the Process?
Glad to have you here! You certainly made the right choice.
Transitioning to Jumpstr is no hard task. Here's the step-by-step process:
1. First off, upload your releases to Jumpstr
2. Once done, visit your old distributor the following day and get rid of those releases
Jumpstr takes pride in its swift service, so it's probable your albums will be displayed on the streaming platforms twice before your previous distributor drops them. An occasional overlap is perfectly acceptable.
Key Note : Be sure to transfer the identical metadata (song titles, album title, ISRCs, etc.) and audio files you previously used with your old distributor. In doing so, platforms (Spotiy in particular) will attempt to retain your play counts and your inclusion in playlists. We cannot ascertain this as it's beyond our control--but typically, that's the trend. However, take note that your reviews on iTunes and Amazon may be lost in the process.
