I would like to run the command sudo brew services start spotifyd but as you can see it uses root privileges, however I found no way of running the command so far without sudo.

The reason why you need to type
sudois to get permission for the action you'd like to take. If every piece of code could do anything it wanted all the time it would be very easy to hack you.I looked around for a bit and you could configure your script as command that your specific user can run without a password. (stackoverflow)
However I'd suggest just starting it using
sudo ./your-script-nameso you can provide your password once up front so your whole script can run without asking for premission again for that specific command in your script.
