For our upcoming EP release I plan on making my rounds around to every record store in the region and asking if I can set up a small kiosk on their counter.
It would look something like this...

...filled with our cd's of course. I would decorate the box with our indy label's stickers, and put a big FREE on the box. Now I know a lot of stores would be weary of doing something like this, but we plan on bargaining with the clerks with free stuff, t-shirts and such.... Secondly, I'd get the clerks phone number and keep a running database on the amount of CD's that were left in the kiosk on a regular basis, refilling them as necessary.
I think this would be a good way to get exposure, what do you guys think, any suggestions, experiences with this sort of thing? Lemme know!
