Sending Material

Don't send too much material. A maximum of 4 songs, preferably less than that.

Give all of your contract details and any previous activity in a short and simple to-the-point covering letter.

Telephone before you send anything. Find the recipients name, don't send product to a company without a contact name.

Follow-up with a telephone call 10 days after sending your CD.

Only send material that is of the type that a publisher or record company specialises in. If you don't know, then find out.

Don't spend time and money making the perfect demo. If you have a good song, someone will recognise it. Let them hear the music and the words - not your opinion of how it should be arranged, produced or performed.

If you are trying to place an artist, send a few photographs and some biographical details.

DON'T GIVE UP - if you have talent, someone will find it, KEEP PERSEVERING. The world is full of people who have turned down major hits and award winning acts.

GOOD LUCK !
