Within our promotion division we are concerned primarily with radio tracking and specialize in working with close to 2000 BDS, CMJ, MediaBase as well as CRC surveyed radio stations across the United States and Canada. The services we provide are broken down into the following arrangements.

Radio campaign packages begin at $800.00 and range to $1600.00 per four week period with advance payment. Radio campaigns usually extend to at least 8-12 weeks. The activities involved in working a radio campaign include tracking and promoting the record to the broadcasters, arranging interviews, stations IDs, contests and promotional "giveaways" with the stations to obtain maximum exposure for the Artist and their recordings. Getting our client's record on the charts is what it's all about. The following radio packages are available:

1) 150 CMJ market broadcasters: $800.00/4 weeks.

2) 150 Commercial, Community, Public and CMJ broadcasters: $1100.00/4 weeks.

With Internet banner ads a viewer, fan or potential consumer only needs to look, listen, click and buy. Building your fan base or selling your music couldn’t be easier, more cost effective or yield potential results than this!
