Should You Give Away Your Demo CDs For Free? There has been a lot of discussion over this issue but I don’t know why.  It is a no brainer.  Of course you should give your demo CDs away for free and here is why.  The explanation can be summed up into three words: Hear, Like, and Buy.  These three steps have to be accomplished in this order or you will not sell very many CDs.  You cannot skip any of these steps because it won’t work if you do.  If you really stop and think about it, you will see that most professional mainstream artists are promoted using this model.  #1 HEAR First, let’s discuss the first step.  People have to hear your music.  People will not buy music that they have not heard.  I don’t care how cute you are, how well you speak, or how interesting you may be; not very many people are going to buy music that they have not heard.  This is why you h...

Getting the best results out of music mastering starts with the recording session. Most musicians record their music in their very own home studios. Contrary to belief, it is more than possible to achieve a professional recording out of a home studio, but mastering will be needed.

Music Mastering can work wonders for your music, but you have to do your part.

When it comes to CD duplication, image is everything. I am not saying that your CD has to look like Universal Records distributed it, but there should be some level of professionalism used when designing the graphics. Most artists plan to duplicate their demos and give them away to the public free of charge. Artists that give free Cd's away experience a loss of income in exchange for advertising their music, and therefore will try to spend as little as possible when manufacturing the discs. When you are giving away music for free it would be wise to find a cheap audio cd duplication service when manufacturing the discs, but one must not compromise the quality of the appearance of the disc in the process.

I understand that the most important factor to consider is the way your music sou...
