New! FREE six-month membership to Sonicbids – only for Disc Makers customers.
We literally lie awake at night trying to think of even more ways
we can help our customers create a buzz, sell more CDs, and succeed
in the music business. One answer that immediately jumped out at us
was Sonicbids. We’ve been partnering with Sonicbids for years to make it easy for bands to sign up for our Independent
Music World Series contest. Why not join forces with them and
offer all our customers a full-fledged Electronic Press Kit (EPK™),
plus access to Sonicbids’ exclusive network of promoters, contest organizers, and booking agents.
Best of all, we give it to you for FREE when you
place a new CD replication order with Disc Makers!
First things first… What is a Sonicbids EPK™?
It’s an extremely easy-to-use, web-based
press kit that will make your old paper press kit look like it was
carved on a stone tablet. Your EPK™ contains all the important info that promoters, club owners, managers,
and labels need to know – press reviews, bio, lyrics, gig calendar
– and then takes it a giant step further, with streaming audio
of your music, links to your website, email contact links, a photo
gallery, and more. And the most beautiful part of the EPK™ is that it’s all done in a colorful graphic-based HTML email
that you can send out to hundreds or even thousands of industry contacts
with the click of a mouse. You’ll never have to lick a stamp
or get a paper cut again.
But Sonicbids doesn’t stop there… They give you a fast and easy way to get your EPK hooked into thousands
of music conferences, showcases, and venue booking agents!
Sonicbids has partnered with some of the world’s
biggest music events, conferences, showcases, festivals, and performance
venues. And they’ll let you know with their informative newsletters
of showcase opportunities that arise.
All you have to do is submit your EPK™ in the Sonicbids “Promoter Drop Box.” Their industry partners review each
submitting band’s EPK™,
make notes, and sort submissions according to preference, etc. Because
each EPK™ is arranged in the same way, the reviewing process is a breeze. And
these promoter partners are exclusive Sonicbids partners. That means they take online press kit submissions only through Sonicbids. Oh, some of them probably still get the old-fashioned bulky paper
kits delivered in those overflowing U.S. postal service plastic bins,
but we get the feeling those bins sit in a corner for week's now that Sonicbids has made the EPK™ review process so easy.
Good news: Along with your Disc Makers order, you get a free 6-month standard membership to Sonicbids, the site that helps bands get gigs, and promoters book the right bands.
Their community is the best on the Web, and includes bands, singers, songwriters, and performers of all kinds from all over the world, and music buyers of all kinds, including promoters, licensors, festival programmers, and much more. Bands go there for gigs; promoters go there for bands. They have lots of both.
 HOW'S IT WORK? HERE'S HOW:
1.
With your finished CDs from Disc Makers, look for our exclusive Aftercare Kit, which includes Sonicbids information with your Disc Makers Client Number.
2.
Go to www.sonicbids.com/promo.
3.
Fill in your info and enter your Disc Makers Client Number in the appropriate field. You must have your Disc Makers Client Number to qualify for your free signup.
From there, just follow the directions for creating your Electronic Press Kit (EPK™) – which includes audio, photos, press reviews, and much more – then browse Sonicbids’ vast selection of gig listings, and off you go.
Good luck. Everyone at Disc Makers is rooting for you.
