i would say if you are blindly mailing your demos to major publishing companies you probably are wasting your time. BUT if you've had a proper introduction, or the publisher is willing to consider unsolicited songs you might not be wasting your time. I would say that most successful publishing companies that have major label cuts and their own staff writers aren't real interested in hearing unsolicited songs. Now if you've managed to get a major label cut and your publishing is open, i'm sure many publishing companies would be very willing to talk with you, hear your songs, and sign that song. But at that point you might not need them. good luck ande www.AndeRasmussen.com <font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">Originally posted by beatgirls: I was under the impression, from other threads on this board, that it was a waste of postage, time, and CDs to mail demos to publishers.

"Do not endeavor to be the smartest kid in a dumb class. Instead, you are better off being the dumbest kid in the smartest class, where you will be challenged and you will learn. If you aren't growing, you are dying." -Brian Austin Whitney
