Hi all,
Don't like to brag, put it helps my puny EGO!!!
Member since May 2018.
Submitted 36 times, 10 forwards, 2 publishing contracts on my desk...

Batting average: .277 not bad for a rookie but was swinging too much on curve balls!
Screener coach told me to swing less, wait for your pitch...

It is a great feeling when you know that your work is playing in the traffic now...

Submitting 2-3 songs a week now... just can't stop, it's a great job.

Success to all

Pierre

Great news and Congrats Pierre!
That's a fantastic amount of output and follows the Mantra "Write/Submit/Forget/Repeat"

That's really good stats Pierre. Expect you'll be quitting your day job pretty soon.

Congrats on the two deals, some good numbers there you must be doing something right. Keep going.

A placement is when it shows up in a TV or Movie though, not gets accepted into Library so there's a few more hoops for those tracks to jump thorugh before you hit paydirt.

It's a good idea to open a free Tunesat Account if you don't have one yet, and drop those signed tracks into it so you can monitor if any of them do get placed, it could be a while though..stuff that we got accepted into a Library this time last year has only recently landed a placement.

The best thing is to build a relationship now with those two Libraries and feed them direct with whatver else they need that you can supply.
