What is DashGo?
DashGo allows artists, labels, and content owners to distribute, promote, and market content across digital stores, social sites, and tastemaker blogs and track the results.
- DashGo distributes to digital content stores from iTunes to Amie Street
- DashGo manages and tracks your content across social discovery sites like MySpace and Imeem
- DashGo knows better information means better online marketing; real people executing real promotions for real impact
Distribution and marketing is not one-size-fits-all. DashGo creates custom solutions tailored to your needs as an artist, label, or other content owner. Contact us for a full list of services and solutions.
Why use DashGo?
There are too many sites selling, streaming and hyping music and video for any one artist, label, or content owner to manage effectively. DashGo streamlines the distribution process to stores and social sites, creates unique promotional opportunities for you, and tracks your fans across the web. Smarter technology + smarter marketing = smarter syndication and a bigger audience.
- A digital sales staff improves positioning and sales at DSPs
- Posting the same MP3 to a hundred places gets a little tedious
- Better information on total streams, top channels, and a human marketing touch
