8. Transparency and Trust Building

Part 9 • DistroKid Referral Program

As always, transparency is key (Module 47). Clearly state that you are using a referral link and that you will receive a commission from DistroKid if they sign up. Emphasize that the referred artist also receives a discount, making it a beneficial exchange for both parties. This builds trust and positions you as an honest and helpful resource within the creator community. Your integrity is your most valuable asset.
