"Paying it Forward” is our site motto and it means community members pass on the goodwill as they have been given and shown. Receiving goodwill, being thankful for the chance/opportunity you are given and then passing it on to help another. This is the whole premise of Planet Pulse and a very simple one.

There are two kinds of people at the top of any industry. Those who have worked hard to build a secure support network by helping those along the way. Then there are those who stepped on others to get to the top and live in fear of falling because there is little holding them up. Which do you want to be?  We’re all connected. One World, One Beat.

There’s a story about a celebrity having to pay $49.00 for a bottle of water. The crew at the venue ran late and the catering truck had broken down.  This celebrity ranted and berated the staff and everyone else around.  He was yelling so much he got really thirsty!. Problem was, the only drinkable water was in a vending machine in the lobby. The celebrity only had a 50.00 bill. “Hey Kid!” he commanded. “Get me some change for the machine!” “I’m sorry”, replied the stagehand, “nobody here would have change for that!” “Well, I NEED water! Gimmie what you got in your pocket!”   “How ‘bout a trade?” “OKAY!” said the celebrity. So a dollar’s worth of change was bought for $50.00. And the stagehand went across the street to the supermarket and bought two cases of water to share with the rest of the production staff!  So... who had the power and respect?

As artists, we have the skill & passion to create. But if there is no one to appreciate the work, it’s value is diminished. We need each other and sharing resources is important for the growth of all. 

An artist we know recently did a major overseas tour, but refused to post the gigs or venues online for fear of someone stealing the contacts. Unfortunately, it also meant his fans looking to attend those shows

couldn’t find him easily, so the tour was not as successful as it could have been.

When most people find a superb restaurant, they share that information with their friends. Why should it be any different here? If you find some amazing music here, don’t look at it as competition, help promote them. Usually that band or artist will thank you, maybe even acknowledge you. Which in turn PROMOTES you too. That’s just the free stuff. Paying for the products and services you find here is not only a great deal, but also helps to keep Planet Pulse running. We have many artists that want to be promoted and to have their music played on the radio & site, problem is they sometimes think theirs is the only worthwhile music in the universe, that is not the case.

Paying it forward means spending a little time to help out. Maybe post a good word on another artist’s page, recording a station ID or bumper or doing a PSA. You’ll find that by putting out just a little bit, you will see a huge return on those investments. It’s not about looking for profit. It’s about knowing you are part of a larger community and that by participating, you are empowered to do bigger things, greater things…things that resonate with a wider part of the planet, as you sync with the heartbeat of the world..paying it forward, one beat at a time.
