7. Deciding on a Per-Release Basis

Part 6 • DistroKid "Store Maximizer" Fee

Like the "Leave a Legacy" fee, the decision to use "Store Maximizer" can be made on a per-release basis. You might choose to apply it to your most important singles, EPs, or albums that are core to your brand and have long-term earning potential. Less significant releases or short-lived collaborations might not warrant the recurring investment. Strategically apply it to the releases that you believe will continue to generate revenue and discovery far into the future.
