The DIY Release Toolkit

A step-by-step roadmap to release your next single or EP without stress (or wasting money).

Who it’s for

Independent artists, bands, and DJs who want to:

• Plan their next release without feeling overwhelmed
• Know exactly what to do and when
• Build momentum before, during, and after release day

What’s inside

• A 6-week timeline leading up to release day (with key actions each week)
• A content checklist (posts, teasers, live clips, etc.)
• A simple press & playlist outreach guide
• Editable social calendar template
• Email templates for blogs, press & radio

Why it works

Most artists waste hours Googling “how to release a single” and piecing together conflicting advice. This toolkit cuts out the noise.

Instead, you get a clear, proven framework that’s already helped independent artists get press, secure gigs, and grow their fanbase - all without huge budgets or industry connections.
