Another library deal!

Post by mazz » Tue May 05, 2009 4:49 am

Hi all,Another nail in the coffin of the "TAXI doesn't work" paradigm.Just received positive confirmation that a library that I was forwarded to a few months ago would like to include my music in their library. This was, as Chuck says, a favorable introduction that came about as a result of a forward from a TAXI listing.Coincidentally, the track that was forwarded was since signed to a different library but I had three more in my back pocket and they want those. The lesson is: Don't be afraid if a piece gets signed while it's pending review for a listing. Just kindly offer them another piece. Since you've already been "favorably introduced", the door is open. Just be professional and return the call (or emaile), it helps us all when we do that. And keep writing so you have that catalog available!!Congrats to everyone else that got a deal with this company. Here's to scads of placements!!Mazz
