magazine ads?

[gullyjewelz]

I have seen "mail" ads in magazines (like VIBE, XXL, Source), telling people they can buy the artist's cd online, or via UPS mail by sending a check to POBOX . . . I wonder how successful that is?

And if anyone ever tried a post-card/cd cover mailing campaign- sent out to neigborhoods where "your fan base" lives . . .telling them any or all of the following. . .

1) your website
2) store to buy your cd
3) upcoming event
4) merchandise . . . ???

If anyone has tried it, please sound off . . .

If you haven't but see some major flaws with this as a plan of attack, pleas sign off . . .
