As a followup to my recent skepticism about Dispatch, I feel compelled to share my growing enthusiasm for its offerings.The steady stream of diverse, interesting listings and opportunities that have been greeting me from my inbox just about every day has kept me looking toward tomorrow with eager anticipation (both of new listings and of the results of those to which I've submitted).3 thumbs up!

Quote:Okay, I get it. You guys don't know what shiz means either. We can only speculate, but I'm pretty sure Snoop Doggy Dogg meant "Some damn fine sh!t" when he coined the term. Andre (aka The Real Dr. Dre)

Andre, I didn't realize this was a literary reference!!!

Quote:I've been debating going the dispatch route. So it's a good idea?Hey Coach,First, congrats on the forward. Steve (sgs4u) made some excellent points, well... not just some - all were excellent and he covered things I like about it but didn't even realize. It's definitely worth it and the more flexible you are in terms of doing different styles the better. I only do instrumentals that fall into the categories of orchestral, electronica, and maybe new age and still there are at least several good listings each month. It's great to get emails out of the blue with opportunities only days away. I myself would never be without Dispatch. Too many good opportunities to pass up for $150 or less prorated or whatever it is.Buy fewer lattes and cappuccinos at Starbucks and the Dispatch membership is paid for. Dave

DaveDave-How the heck are you submitting for Dispatch listings when you don't have a Broadjam account anymore? Those FedEx fees must be killing you! Andre

Quote:Dave-How the heck are you submitting for Dispatch listings when you don't have a Broadjam account anymore? Those FedEx fees must be killing you! I just stopped going to Starbucks altogether. Actually it takes three days for mail, four at the most. If I mail that day or the day after receiving a Dispatch it's no problem. I try to submit existing tracks for Dispatch. Worst case scenerio would probably be "priority mail" or two day guarantee. So far it's just been $0.89. Plus I only do a few here and there. Of the last 16 that have shown up lately, only two were listings I felt I could get really get some mileage out of.I would join Broadjam again if it becomes a problem but so far it's not really been an issue. Besides, "you-know-who" was an $0.89 snail-mail Dispatch submission.
