Rotation is earned real estate.
What rotation means, how it deepens, and what the portal shows you as you grow.
How Rotation Works
THE LADDERAccepted music starts in a station's local rotation. Spins, requests, and station advocacy move it: featured slots, more stations, regional promotion, national library. Every step is a human choice by people who run real stations — there is no algorithm to game, only rooms to win.
The Portal Grows With You
ACCESSPortal access deepens as your catalog and traction do — airplay history, station relationships, promotion placements. Keep your profile current and your dates fresh; a dead profile reads as a dead band to a station deciding tonight's feature.
Do This Now
HANDS ON- Check your airplay history in the portal.
- Thank one station that spun you — by name, to their station mailbox.
- Update your dates before every submission.
