I don't think so. Just logged in for the day, so if it's in my box, I have not checked it.

"The way you retain partial publishing rights is to form your own publishing company. You send BMI $100, fill out the paper work and send it back, they list you as a publisher and when you get air play you can get a copy of the play list from the station or station's and send it to BMI or they may find it on the list's that they receive from different radio stations."

what is the down fall on doing this??
Why is it not more common?
I like the idea though. But then again another publisher might be getting the opportunity to get your songs produced by a popular artist, and getting that particualr song making money for you.
Where as as a self publisher...
getting songs you have published to make you money..
or sung by an artist, would propabably be harder to come by... unless you are extremely motivated and have the time to push your songs in efforts to get them sold.
This gives me an idea though...
good discussion though.

gatorhaus said:Actually, I could not find any artist listed on the site, AT ALL. oh except for fat John and his bad back, raking in the chicks.
gatorhaus said:Dave, the four case studies on your site, are you willing to provide the actual names of the persons involved and the cities that they live in. Or were those "typical" case studies, not actually anyone real.

Al McCree is named. The others I can't name because I don't have permission.

That is true Dave, The case study shows an example of niche marketing, but did you or did you not have anything to do with that. The site does not say, I assume you didn't have anything to do with it, otherwise you would state so. You were just explaining an example of niche marketing. Which Al McCree was responsible for.
As far as permission goes. if you been doing this for 10 years only logic says that you would have some satisfied customers that would only be happy enough to be promoting your services and more than willing to give you permission.
I know, I know, it'll be up in a week or two. [sigh]
Is the only thing you troll these boards for is to promote your sevices or do you have anything to contribute to help? The majority of the Senior Members here actually give advice for free.
That is the purpose of this BBS!! Its a give and take. Not shove your business down the throats of everyone and see how many clients I can get.
BTW,
Did, pashop ever get his money back???? (hmmmmm) probably not worth the harddrive it was written on..........
Just my thoughts...
I will now return you to your regularly scheduled life....
