Benefits of using CDBaby as a independent artist
I have been a CD Baby artist since the year 2002. Three years after releasing my first album Hooligan 2000. I decided to give this internet thing a try I signed up the album and mail them five copies. It was my assumption did that’s all it takes just post your shit on the internet and people will buy it.
I must admit for as good as I am selling my music on the streets I’m not that good of a online marketer. It took me three months to sell the first copy of that album.

CD Baby may not be the right digital distribution platform for you I would advise any independent recording artists to take their time and research or did you know distribution companies to see which one is right for them.
Benefits of using CD Baby as a independent recording artist.
1. A one time fee where other platforms charge you annually you only pay CD Baby once. That works for my budget.
2. Good customer service the people that the CD Baby Call Center are easy to access I’ve called them on numerous occasions they’ve always been there to answer my questions.
3. Worldwide distribution of both physical and digital products. When I release my album the city of the hooligan in 2006 I utilize the physical distribution of CD Baby they do consignment with Mom and Pop record shops all over the world.
4. Royalty Administration CD Baby Pro collects your royalties from collection agencies all around the world
5. Useful tips CD Baby has a lot of useful tips and marketing advice on the back end of their website when you log in I personally enjoy the DIY University the CD Baby offers.
