Audiomack is teaming up with Ziiki Media to help promote artists across Africa.
The partnership will see Audiomack promote artists across Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, and South Africa. Audiomack will have access to artists under Ziiki Media’s platform, offering them an opportunity to amplify their music. The advertising campaigns will include billboards, posters, bus branding, and live event activations.
Charlotte Bwana, Head of Business Development and Media Partnerships for Audiomack Africa, says marketing is a unique challenge for most artists. “We constantly work to identify challenges that exist in the music industry and pull our resources to overcome these challenges.”
“We recognize the need for artists to reach existing and potential fans within their region and beyond through impactful marketing tactics, making this initiative a good step in the right direction. With this partnership, we aim to support the growth of the African music industry, and we look forward to spearheading similar initiatives that propel the region’s music ecosystem.”
