Not true he did well for his first solo release with no major money backing and considering the state of the industry each release is another stepping stone imo he had great product its just harder to compete right off the bat with the big big artists but like i said he will get more further with each offering he has a brite future also that comment about radio those were mostly local spins for an artist like Big Rich eventually he will get out of state spins and more and more as he progresses the reason 40 is selling good and 2 short is they got spins all over the world thats not the case for alot of our bay artists pz
invest wisely the bread flow is fucked up if you just wait for a distributor.
QUITE AS ITS KEPT DISTRIBUTORS PAY THE BILLS OFF LOCAL PRODUCT CAUSE MOST DONT BREAK 3000 UNITS WHOLESALE AT $10 DEDUCT 30% LEAVING $7 DEDUCT $1 LEAVING $6 PLUS $2 CO-OP AND PRICE AND POSITIONING LEAVING $4 PLUS $1.50 FOR MARKETING LEAVING $2.50 IN WHICH IS A 150 DAYS EVEN WHEN THEY SAY PAYMENT AFTER 90 DAYS.
AND THEN THEY HOLD 30% FOR RESERVES IN CASE CDS COME BACK.
IN WHICH THEY CHARGE $10 PER RETURN AGAINST YOUR $7 PUTTIN YOU IN THE WHOLE $3 ON THE BACK END FOR THEM.
BASICALLY YOU WILL DO BETTER PRICING 1000 COPIES, FLYERS AND DIGITAL DOWN LOADS GROSSING EASILY OVER $5000 IN WHICH YOU WOULD NOT SEE FOR 150 IF YOU WENT THE DISTRIBUTION ROUTE.
A MIX OF BOTH COULD BE GOOD BUT JUST KNOW IT COST TO BE IN THE STORE NOW DAYS AND THEY ARE NOT TAKING THE RISK YOU ARE.
