"Got Distribution? Independent Distribution Secrets Revealed"

with Prime Time's Ric Curtice and IODA's Humberto Carmona at SAE Institute in San Francisco.

For those who want to get and make the most of independent distribution, NARIP presents this program to help understand the process.

You will learn low-cost (or no-cost) ways to get independent record distribution, the best ways to work with a network of independents and how to harness everyone to work as a team. Also, you’ll learn about sales arrangements, territories, and payment terms – everything you need to achieve sales success.

Find out how you can use SoundScan and other tools, how to identify the best distributors for your genre of music, how to approach them, and how to get the best deal and achieve maximum exposure for your product.

YOU WILL LEARN:

* What it is & how it works
* Who needs it & when
* How to get it & what it costs
* Types of distributors
* How to work with distributors for maximum profits
* How to fan the flames and create demand for your product
* Distribution agreements: fees, terms and important considerations
* Distributed vs. in-house labels
* How to get paid


NOTE:

This program does not cover specifics of acquiring digital distribution, but will cover how to use a digital distribution aggregator along with (or separately) from your physical distributor.
