The scale comes in the artists community. “I think with that size of a staff we can really make this thing go. “I could foresee us maybe topping off at 12 to 15 employees,” he said. Though he plans to grow, he doesn’t expect many full-time hires. The company has six full-time employees at the moment and is adding 10 to 15 artists to its roster a week, Williamson said. He also wants to offer premium services, like letting customers interact with the songwriter and have the ability to suggest edits. Right now, songs can't be edited, a fact Blue Sky learned the hard way after failing to explain the pronunciation of a name. Williamson said as Songfinch grows, it plans to add tools to easily share songs and a capability to upload photos. Individual songwriters also offer such services directly to consumers. Songfinch is up against other companies including Downwrite, which also lets customers buy custom songs from songwriters. I think we’re starting to lean toward No. “When we first started diving in, we didn’t really understand if this was going to be a niche product or if it was really big mass market, like replace-the-greeting-card market. “We just think the market … for these $200 songs is enormous,” Williamson said. “The salespeople can personalize songs for potential prospects they’re going after - people who aren’t answering emails or phone calls - they create a personalized song, they send it off and they get a response.”Įnthusiastic managers have also enlisted Songfinch to write songs for their Monday morning staff meetings, congratulating people for good work in the lyrics. “We have a (software as a service) platform that is looking to buy a bulk of songs to give their salespeople,” he said. Though many have been for occasions like anniversaries or weddings, he said businesses also got creative with the service. Williamson said the company has done about 100 songs so far during a testing period. Pratt said he can usually knock out a song the day he gets a request, taking two to three hours to write the song, then another two or three to record it.

We have a perpetual usage license on the song - called “Blue Skies” - which means we can use the song for anything but commercial purposes. Talking venture capital, making the pitch Ĭool, cause in the office we talking in GIFs Īnd throwing unicorns all up in the mix.”Ĭhicago native Johnathan Pratt, or “JDP,” wrote the song and is featured on its landing page. Details we submitted like “We write about technology and innovation at the Chicago Tribune” and “Please mention unicorns (These are private startups valued at $1 billion)” were deftly translated into:

The result is a triumphant, synth-fueled ode to Blue Sky, and we could hardly stop listening to it and sharing lyrics on Slack. Though the company didn't yet have a female rapper in its network, he said Songfinch did have a male rapper who used Auto-Tuned choruses and could cram in all of our crazy details. Twenty-three anecdotes later, we sent off the form, requesting a female rapper with a Nicki Minaj vibe.Ĭo-founder Rob Lindquist told us after we submitted the request that the service is more focused on artists in the singer-songwriter vein for the time being. Our team sat down for half an hour to brainstorm details we wanted to include. We’re celebrating our third birthday this month and thought a song would be the perfect way to celebrate our devotion to doughnuts and commemorate that one time Mark Cuban headlined an event for us. He started the company with his brother, Rob Lindquist, and Josh Kaplan, all of whom worked together at Music Dealers, a music agency and music-licensing platform co-founded by Williamson.īlue Sky put the process to the test. The result is a gift that brings stories to life, said Songfinch co-founder John Williamson, who has worked in the music industry for more than 20 years. Songfinch takes it from there: The company matches the request with one of 200 vetted songwriters who write, record and produce the track within a week and receive $100 per song. Then, a customer chooses from moods ranging from “bitter” to “romantic” and whether they want a male or female artist. The service, which launched Tuesday, connects consumers with a songwriter who turns an online form into a made-from-scratch song.Ĭustomers go to the Songfinch website and fill out details about the occasion and who the song is for, then share fond memories or inside jokes that could inform the lyrics. For $200 and a week’s wait, Chicago-based Songfinch wants to give you a personalized song you’d actually listen to.
