Diary Of An Indie Artist - Licensing Deals & Distribution Deals (Episode...

Everybody knows what a record deal is -or at least they should-, a record label gets interested in you as an artist and either buys your record (that you've already recorded) or puts money to record an album -let's be honest, this doesn't happen that often anymore-. They put it out, they put the money for marketing & promotion, tours, manufacturing, etc. At the same time they own everything after that (especially now, with the 360 deals, that I will talk about in another episode).

But, what happens if you don't get a record deal? Does the world end? Is there any other option for your music to get out? Of course! Don't panic!

It all depends on how much control you want to have over your music, and what kind of a budget you have as well. Also, is your product good enough? Because it all starts there... you HAVE to HAVE a good product! :)

I would like for you to learn what other options you have, for that it is mandatory that you know about licensing deals & distribution deals.
