1 1 Our mission is to help you promote your music, simply and securely. Since 2007 we have continued to develop a platform that offers an innovative solution for music promotion. Using your exclusive online account, you can build your own database of contacts, send promos which represent your brand, and collect compiled in-depth listener feedback reports all in one place. We provide the industry standard tools and a system that is trusted by both clients and recipients alike.

2 2 BUILD BEAUTIFUL PROMOS IN MINUTES Take full control over the design of your promos Promos that reviewers and DJs love With a few clicks, you can generate customised, branded templates which reflect your company profile and display perfectly in all clients and web browsers. We also support ipad, iphone, and Android devices. Have complete control over how your promos look with no FATdrop logos anywhere in sight. Multiple file formats and download options Create tailored promos that meet the requirements of your audiences. Include artwork, biographies, press packs, and any other files you may require that can be made downloadable as a single compiled ZIP file. Upload lossless files and we will automatically convert to WAV, AIFF, FLAC, MP3, and tag them with all the necessary metadata (including WAVs!). If recipients are listening to promos on a mobile device, they can link their Dropbox account and download any promos directly to their Dropbox. Simple File Management Easy-to-use tools for tagging, re-encoding and detecting (and fixing) problems in your audio make managing your files simple. Smart presets mean everything is taken care of for you.

3 SEND, MANAGE, AND MONITOR YOUR PROMOS 3 Simple mailing list management and control Mailing list management Manage your contacts and create custom groups for ease of delivery. Additionally tag contacts to allow for further fine-tuned mailouts and with dynamic tags that update automatically, we help keep your mailing lists organised and up to date. Your contacts can also update their own details from the FATdrop dashboard, so if a contact changes addresses, your promos will automatically be sent to the new address without you having to change anything. Schedule Sends Schedule sends or resends to go out at a certain date and time. You can even schedule campaigns to go to a different combination of lists and/or tags at different times for even more control over your mailouts. Send in a number of ways Send directly to your mailing list through FATdrop, or alternatively create private or public links for sending through your own client or messenger whilst retaining the benefit of FATdrop's security, reporting and analysis systems. Optionally, require an address in order for recipients to download your promo, allowing you to collect contact details to be added to your database for future use.

4 4 PROTECT YOUR PRE-RELEASE MUSIC Intuitive tracklist creation for promos Advanced Watermarking FATdrop's powerful watermarking technology injects a unique identifier into every stream and every track downloaded. In the eventuality of a leak, we can pinpoint the initial recipient of any leaked files. Watermarking is included at no extra cost on all price plans. Anti-piracy scanning and take-downs All FATdrop clients can benefit from a free account with anti-piracy and takedown company Muso. You get 8 weeks of free scanning and you will be alerted if your pre-release music appears online. Anti-share Prevent recipients from sharing promo links. If the system detects that a promo has been accessed by anyone other than the intended recipient, verification will be required.

5 5 IMMEDIATE FEEDBACK TO YOUR PROMOS At-a-glance campaign statistics and campaign hit maps One-click ratings & comments Listeners can easily rate a track with the star system, or comment on a track in the field provided. Optional "Forced Feedback" settings mean that you can prevent users from downloading a track until they've commented or rated, so you get the feedback you need to promote your new music. In-depth activity reports Compile reports and generate PDF versions to print or . Edit your reports before you compile them and choose which feedback you want to include. Hide your contacts and any other sensitive data to make reports artist and label-partner ready. Recipient dashboard: A dedicated area of FATdrop where recipients can log in to conveniently see all of their promos in one place, manage their subscriptions and react quickly and easily.

6 6 FATDROP POWER FEATURES Control multiple template designs for every campaign Custom users Create multiple users each with their own log-in, and keep fine-grained control over which areas of your account users can access, including individual mailing lists, campaigns and reports. Multiple templates Add additional templates to create a separate brand identity for sub-labels and special campaigns. Switch between templates with a single click for ease of use. Itemised billing Invoices contain a breakdown of individual campaign costs, making it easy to budget and account for multiple campaigns.
