10 TIPS FOR PITCHING YOUR MUSIC TO PUBLISHERS

• One of the areas where songwriters make the most
  blunders is pitching songs (performing songs for
  publishers, performers, or record label people
  in the hopes of getting them to record or helping
  you have a song recorded). These blunders can be
  costly. You don't get many chances to make a good
  ?rst impression before being labeled a "burned
  bridge."
• Here are some crucial TIPS to keep in mind when
  pitching songs.
• "In the ballpark" is insuf?cient.
• You want to pitch songs like a rifle rather than
  a shotgun. It's not merely a case of throwing
  stuff out and seeing what sticks. You want to
  provide them with exactly what they require (or
  think they need).
• Make sure your song is up to snuff.
• If your music sounds like it was written by a
  novice, it will be discarded, and they will
  remember your name with a crimson "A" next to
  it. When it comes to song pitches, you're up
  against the big guns. You should not have pitched
  your music if it does not hold up against
  everything that is being pitched to it.
• Pitch 1-2 songs at a time unless someone
  speci?cally requests more.
• Again, consider a rifle rather than a shotgun.
  Choose your two ?nest images for that artist and
  pitch them. They might run for more if they
  enjoy what you send.
• Make your presentation look professional.
• Don't use a sharpie to write the labels on the
  CD. Make your pitch as good as the publishers who
  are pitching you.
• When pitching songs, start small.

6. Never send CDs or pitch URLs to people who
haven't asked for them. Before sending anything,
be sure you have authorization. Even though
practically everyone knows who I am, I do it.
It's the most courteous and effective approach
to conducting business. Request permission to
transmit 1-2 songs ZvoiaompShtoudnioe or email.
The majority of individuals will allow you to do
so. It goes a long way to do things correctly.

7. Don't burn a CD with more than 20 tracks.
That is likely to be discarded. Number 10 will do
the same. Almost probably number ?ve."I have no
idea whHaety, II'mneed some assistance. accomplish
ing and no idea what you want and need, so I'm
just delivering all I have," a CD full of music
says. Distributing
links to your most current batch of tunes by
email is the same. Don't be one of the people (or
girl.)
Hi, can you guide me?
8. Don't brag or mention anyone's name. The
individuals to whom you're pitching songs aren't
interested in whom you know or what names
youEcnatenr ythoruor wmeasrsoaugned. Don't
discuss with whom you collaborate or who has
listened to your music. The quality of your
writing has nothing to do with the opinions of
others. Allow your music to speak for itself
rather than trying to flaunt your way to the top.
If you do,

10 tips for pitching your music to publishers

• you'll be reinstated in the "amateur club." Also,
  never mention anything along the lines of "My
  tunes are better than those on the radio."EVER.
• That has been said ten thousand times by
  professionals in the industry, and it has never
  been true. That is something that people who
  write better songs than the ones on the radio do
  not say. So, if you catch yourself saying those
  words, stop them in their tracks. This will not
  assist you in obtaining a publishing contract.
• Never vent your frustrations or whinge to the
  folks you're pitching to.
• You'll be immediately shown the door if you
  complain about how dif?cult the business is, how
  no one will listen to your songs, and other "woe
  is me" sentiments. People prefer to work with
  people that are industrious and optimistic. Those
  folks don't gripe or complain. They're too
  preoccupied with their jobs.
• If a song isn't outstanding, don't pitch it.
• Just don't do it. It will hurt you far more than
  it will bene?t you if you pitch songs that aren't
  great. CONCLUSION
• While recording in a studio can drastically
  improve the sound of your music, keep the
  aforementioned criteria in mind when selecting
