Why printing on CD is important
What you may not know as a new musician or at least a musician who is breaking into the music industry for the first time is that the music business is 90% business and 10% music.
Sure you may be a really great artist, and your music might be the most cutting edge sound out there, but if you do not know music business then it is unlikely you will be a success for long. Pride is the name of the game this is why printing on CD is important. You need to show people that you take pride in your music by giving them a demo CD which looks it has been done by a professional.
Printing on CD is more than just taking pride in your music, it is about showing people who you are as a musician. On your CD people should be able to see who you are, a list of your demo tracks and your contact details. As an unknown musician you have one chance to sell yourself and that is on your CD. This is true especially if you want your music to circulate. If people like your sound they must become familiar with the title of your songs and they should also know where to contact you to book you for gigs or to buy your music.
Printing on CD is also about being professional. As a musician you will most likely not be walking around with a brief case and a suit, and people do not really care too much about appearance of a musician so your chance to present yourself as professional and serious is done on your Demo CD.
Printing on CD is also about selling yourself and your music. Even though you will be giving your demo out for free, it is still a product and should be made to look as if it has lots of value. And it does! Because your music has value.
Visit one of the many CD printing companies around and make sure that your CD stands out from the rest.
