First Library Deal Through TAXI!

Post by ksutton1207 » Fri Jul 28, 2017 2:40 pm

I'm very happy to report that I've received my first library deal through TAXI!

I've submitted to 19 listings since January 2016 with 10 forwards (a pretty decent forward rate, from what I've read). I went a good year and a half without hearing anything back on those forwards, which no doubt was frustrating at times, but as they say, patience and persistence is key in this game. You will eventually hear back -- I can attest! I'm beyond excited to start a relationship with this particular library and expand my signed catalog with them and many others through TAXI.

I'm also hoping to attend my first Road Rally this year. Perhaps I'll see some of you there!

Best,
Kyle

Well done..You started the same month as we did..cool to hear you have a deal.

What was the time between the forward and the Library getting in touch ? We signed one deal out of 40 forwards so far so I'm kinda hoping another one of those forwards I've forgotten about may suddenly contact us.
