In this time of ever-decreasing distribution opportunities for independent artists and labels, authors and multi-media producers, Musik International is supporting creative diversity by offering a number of exciting options that enable individuals to take control of their own sales achievements.
In addition to offering distribution solicitation services, Musik International can utilize its daily updated database of over 20,000 retailers to:
Increase Local/Regional Sales — find out which stores in your city, area or state are open to consignment placement of recordings in your style of music, or your book, video/DVD or spoken word release.
Expand Sale Markets — discover contact details for shops that are already successfully selling similar items in other states, or even nationwide.
Supplement Distributor Out-Reach — if your book or music distributor doesn’t deliver an aggressive marketing campaign, this option empowers you to reach dozens, hundreds or even thousands of retailers with literature, postcards, announcements, demos, in-store play copies, sample chapters, catalogs, customer giveaway materials, special in-store signage or posters, and more.
Develop Pre-Tour Sales — identify retailers along your travel route before you hit the road; pre-solicit them to carry your recording or book, and help distribute advance promotional information about your gig or live appearance.
Dynamite Direct Mailings — let retail managers know you’ve got a new album, book, DVD/VHS or spoken audio recording by using our 100-percent customizable labels. Don’t know how to organize a direct mailing effort? Check out our mailings section for more details and low-cost opportunities.
Create In-Store Events — book or CD signings, lectures, workshops, even live performances can be developed by contacting the right stores on a local or national level.
Amplify Internet Sales — are you sure your recording is available on-line everywhere it needs to be? Ask about our list of over two dozen e-tailers and electronic catalogs.
In addition to contact lists, Musik International can provide both postcard-suitable labels (sized 1 inch by 2-5/8 inches) or demo package labels (sized 2 inches by 4 inches) saving you hours of data input.
Note: Musik International’s retail lists are copyright protected and are rented to you for one-time use only; they are seeded and trackable, so don’t share them with friends. We offer them cheap enough so that anyone can afford to get the help they need; also the lists are updated daily and searchable by musical style, so the rock list you got six months ago may not help your hip-hop friend next month. Musik International reserves the right to refuse service or list sales to anyone for any reason, any time.
