High-level marketing requires high-level data.

By using our preferred distribution partner, we can better align your release metadata with our proprietary marketing systems.

We’ve partnered with FPMG DISTRIBUTION to reward artists who are serious about their infrastructure.

When you move your catalog (or your next release) to them, we cover half the cost of your strategy.

❤️ Better Because We Care: FPMG Distribution was founded and is operated by artists who are actively touring, writing, and releasing music. Their staff aren’t just suits in an office, they are a team of musicians who want to help other musicians just like you idealize and realize their goals, and live their dreams.

F.A.Q.

  • Here are the steps:

    1. Click the button above, and read through the FPMG website. When you’re ready, click to submit your music.

    2. On the very last question of the FPMG submission form, be sure to check “I came here from Standout Agency.” before submitting.

    3. The team at FPMG will review your submission. They do not accept everyone!

    4. If you’re accepted for distro through FPMG, they will contact us.

    5. We will send you the discount code.

    6. We all crush your release together!

  • Not at all. Our teams will communicate between ourselves.

    You will speak to FPMG about release topics, and to us about marketing topics.

  • There is a 10-20% administration fee that FPMG Distribution takes off the top from your digital royalties ONLY.

    20% = Upcoming release only
    10% = Catalog + Upcoming

    For a little math: If you have a song with 100,000 streams on Spotify, that equals ~$350 in royalties.

    10%: $35 would go to FPMG, and the remaining $315 goes to you.

    20%: $70 would go to FPMG; $280 to you.

    On the marketing side, you’ve saved 50% on agency fees.

    So, you’ve saved ~$200-300/mo in exchange for $35-70/mo.

    Hard to beat that deal!

  • In general, you can switch distribution channels at any time without any problems. If you are using DistroKid, CD Baby, TuneCore, etc - it’s very easy.

    If you have signed a distro agreement with another entity similar to FPMG, or with another label, then whether or not you can move to a new platform depends on your contract.

  • FPMG Distribution has a built in feature that can automatically transfer almost all of the data for any song you currently have released.

    They also have a very straightforward onboarding form that will collect everything else they need to ensure releases are set up properly.

  • That will not happen!

    FPMG’s transfer system pulls all of the metadata for your release(s), which guarantees there will be zero loss of streaming data in any move.

  • Both Standout Agency and FPMG Distribution are part of the same collection of music business companies under the THEORIA GROUP umbrella.

    What helps one company, helps all of them.

    Also, the more we can have a hand in helping our clients grow, the more new clients we can bring in.
