Can we access a staging demo of the platform to test it out?

We don't typically give demo accounts because the system requires training, a certain knowledge before using it, as well as data (catalog, reports, contracts/payees). Schedule a demo to see the platform.

Do I need to use an outside aggregator in conjunction with JustJoJo Distro?

You do not need an outside aggregator. JustJoJo Distro enables you to connect to the DSPs for delivery with your own deals or you could opt in to use JustJoJo Distro's deals with the DSPs for distribution. 

What information would you need exactly from us for the transfer from our distributor/aggregator?

JustJoJo Distro requires our customer's catalog to be ingested, whether you are using JustJoJo Distro to distribute, do reporting, and/or royalties. This can be done in a few different ways: 

  • Your current aggregator can possibly set up a feed to JustJoJo Distro.

  • Use JustJoJo Distro's catalog ingestion template.

  • Create a release directly on the platform.

What happens to my chart history/rankings, playlist placement, etc when transferring distribution to JustJoJo Distro?

When migrating catalogs, the only major DSP that loses some historical data/rankings is iTunes/Apple Music. If the UPC-ISRCs remain the same, the merge should be complete and chart history & popularity should be retained but ratings & reviews will be lost. 

For other DSPs, as long as UPC-ISRCs are all the same (and in the case of Spotify, you also need the track length and version info to be the same); all ‘ranking’ is preserved.

Our current distributor makes our music available on YouTube and has a copyright claim management system, just confirming that you would do this as well in a distributor role?

Yes, we deliver to YouTube Content ID. We don't provide a UI for direct claim management. Our YT staff handles this directly and reaches out to you in the event of an issue with your content.

Does JustJoJo Distro provide access to unique codes (ie: Apple track ID's, Spotify URI)?

For all DSPs that provide a method to obtain a URI or a weblink, we retrieve those and display them in the Distribution section.

Does JustJoJo Distro provide a way to setting up pre-orders?

Yes

Does JustJoJo Distro provide a way to setting up pre-saves?

We don't offer this feature to our customers. We are working on a partnership with an outside partner, which would be opt-in and there would likely be a flat fee for unlimited use.

What is the turnaround time of delivery for new releases?

Delivery time to most major DSPs is within a few hours / same day.

Why does it show live on the UI when it is not live yet on YT, Yandex, iMusica and Nuuday and Shazam?  

Live on the UI for the following DSPs YouTube, Yandex, iMusica, Nuuday and Shazam simply means that they have confirmed ingestion.

Why is it live on Shazam before the release date? 

This is just how Shazam works: they don’t respect release dates. But you can’t play the song yet… If she doesn’t want it to appear at all before the release date, she must not send it to Shazam before that date.

Will the JustJoJo Distro platform replace our current royalty system? 

Yes, the platform enables you to do your master recording royalties with great ease and automation. I do want to clarify that we currently do not do royalty processing for publishing.

Does JustJoJo Distro process Mechanical Royalties?

Yes, we process mechanical reporting with our platform in the following ways:

  • Indicate the mechanical amounts due on each payee statement

  • Provide a master mechanical report to you showing all amounts due by each payee (but not the splits of those dues to the writers/publishers)

What does the onboarding process look like?

What is JustJoJo Distro's protocol in case of technical difficulties with the platform?

We have a support team that works with you. Response time is generally within 24 hours of email.

Where is JustJoJo Distro based?
