Advice on the profile- I've already put a question out to Taxi but I thought I'd jump in the forum here.

Is there a way to see successful taxi profiles? To make it public or not. Who sees it if it's public? My singer songwriter music is mostly alt rock but I'm not sure if I should sell myself as that. There's music I haven't written that will be out of my typical genre to satisfy a need.

Do you thin yourself out if you submit many genres of music?

Should we be uploading and submitting hundreds of songs? As many as we can? I heard about the write, submit, forget mantra so it sounds like don't wait around to get a response, keep submitting.
Thank you!!

Hi Margot and Welcome to the Forum!
My advice...
Watch Taxi TV (YouTube, on Mondays) where you will gain knowledge
Also watch past episodes regarding tunes that have been forwarded, you will hear how high/low the bar is...
Write/Record specifically to the Listings
Learn how to title your tracks and add MetaData + Moods
Use the search tool within this forum to hunt for answers to any question you may have
Almost everything has been discussed numerous times
Post up your Mix along with the Listing's text in the Peer-to-Peer section here in the Forum for feedback from genuinely helpfull members.
You will learn so much in a very short time!
Cheers,
Cass

What Cass said. Definitely don't submit like crazy, shotgunning to every listing. Listings have very specific requirements and anything that's not in the ballpark will never get forwarded. If you have something you think might be worth submitting to a listing, listen really carefully to the reference tracks and honestly compare your track to those.

Good luck!

Welcome Margot,
I use the Taxi Forwards blog to hear what's forwarded for the listings http://blog.taxi.com/forward/
Many requests are repeated because it's whats popular to use, so after a while you would know some reference tracks to write/ submit for in your genre/ styles.

Good luck!
