it, or even know what a CD
One-Sheet is, it is
an important promotional piece used for distribution and
radio promotion that is designed to help sell your
CD. It should be included when you are
submitting your CD single or new release to anyone
including radio stations for airplay consideration,
distributors, label A&R, etc. You
CD
One-Sheet basically outlines the details of the
new release including things such as an exciting
decriptive review, contact info., suggested retail,
Genre, UPC code, and more. It should be
professionally designed, and well written for
maximum effectiveness. This is another
crucial promotional sales tool that we design for
all of our artist's new or recent CD release
without exception on a regular

Music Marketing Plan
Development –
For the Independent and DIY Artist, Band, Indie
Label, and any other music related
businessess.
I Cannot - I Repeat - Cannot
emphasize enough the importance of utilizing a
professionally developed and formatted music marketing
plan. As an Indie music consultants and managers,
this is usually the first or possibly the second
thing we recommend that our artists,
labels, and music business professionals put into
place
Whether you're an independent artist, label, or
music business - which as an indie - DIY artist your music
career is your business, a written "Plan of
Action" is crucial to your success.
Without one, you're just shooting arrows in the wind-
aimlessly trying to achieve your goals. The likelyhood
of achieving a reasonable and acceptable degree of success is
very small.
A Comprehensive, well written, and
solid Music
Marketing Plan is absolutely essential to success in any
start up music business. It is your bible, your roadmap,
which should be followed without yeilding from it. It
spells out in an easy to understand format, the strategies,
and the steps you need to take, how and when to take
them, and how to implement your strategies in an effective
manner. Often, we won't even consider working with
an artist, independent label, or other music entity, if
they are not open to developing and using a solid music
marketing plan. Without a solid music marketing
plan literally all efforts can be in
vein.
Whether it's us, or someone else
who develops and prepares it, I genuinely
recommend not going it alone without the written
"PLAN OF
ATTACK".
Once your music plan is completed, we
will personally walk you through it, mentor and teach you how
to implement it each and every step, and use
it effectively to achieve the highest possible
results, and music career/business
advantage.

Use it - Live by it - as though your career depended upon

Feature Article
–
As with a CD review, and
even more so in many cases, a feature band article written by
a creditable music writer and published in the right
music media, either in print or online, is another powerful
way to seriously increase awareness for your project, for you
as an artist or band, and your CD release. It is an
essential music publicity piece. Once again, as with the CD
review, the trick is to persuade a music
journalist writing for a creditable publication to
write a feature article about you. This is not always
easy. Often, if they have a fully completed and
professionally written article presented to them, they are
more likely to print it in lieu of having to write it.
It also shows that you are taking your career serious.
Online articles drive traffic to your websites in turn
increasing CD and merch sales, and building your fan
base.
Our copywriters and journalists
will professionally write your feature article which can
be used to distribute to music editors, posted on your
websites, EPK, and in your promotional media
kit. We will also post it on all of our
syndicated network of websites in the Up and Coming Artists
Sections.

Featured Interview/Article
What better way to let music fans know all
about you and your records. Fans just love to keep up
with their favorite artists and bands and love to know all
about them on a more personal level. Generally fans are
facinated with band or artist interviews either in writing or
on live media broadcasts. Typically, interview type
articles get more attention than a lot of other forms of
music media exposure. As with CD reviews and feature
articles, facilitating a writer to interview you and put it in
writing is certainly not easy. A professional
written and formatted interview-article will dramatically
increase visits to your websites, increasing CD and merch
sales, and creating new fans.
Our professional
copywriters will prepare the storyboard and script for
your interview and send it to you for your detailed response
and answers. We will fully edit it, and
present it to you in a professionally written interview
format. Your interview feature can be posted on all your
websites, distributed to music editors, industry magazines,
and placed in your press and media kits. We will also
post it on all of our syndicated network of websites in
the Up and Coming Artists Sections. It's truely an amazingly
powerful form of promoting yourself and your
records.

CD Review –
Having your CD reviewed favorably by
creditable music writers and music media can be a huge step in
generating interest in your product CD Release. Finding
the right Internet and traditional press that is willing to
write about you is another issue. It's not
easy. As with a feature article, if the piece is
submitted to the media outlet and editor already
professionally written and ready to print - the likelyhood of
getting it published can be far greater.
Our staff of
professional CD reviewers will do a professional
fully written and formatted review on your CD. This way
you can use it to embelish your press kit, send to music
journalists, Internet music media portals, and music
publicists, generating keen awareness and tons
of visits to your websites and EPK. This will
translate to increased CD and merch sales and digital
downloads, increase and grow your fan base, and build
your mailing list. Your CD review will also be posted
on our network of syndicated websites in the latest (up
and coming) CD release review
