Is This A Business or A Game - Pt 2
(Rap Newswire) March 13, 2006 - What has Karl received for his money outside of a wonderful, fun filled weekend in Miami?
SHOW OFF RECORDS name has been blasted over the radio every night, but none of the SHOW OFF RECORDS music has been played.
Hip Hop Industry attendees and some Miami fun seekers now have copies of the SHOW OFF RECORDS mix cd, they may or may not listen to it.
Some industry notables now understand that SHOW OFF RECORDS throws a mean VIP room party, and a few may have even seen there acts perform in the club. Karl has personally met a few major recording artists, but doesn’t know their management team, booking agent or record label executives.
The majority of his promotional materials have found there way to Miami Beach & Miami Dade County Sanitation Bureau because his material was just one of several hundred labels material that was promoted during this weekend.
The organizational structure of SHOW OFF RECORDS has not been created; there are no products ready for sale and no plan to create either.
If Karl has an accident or for some unforeseen reason cannot function as the head of the label who will take over and save his investment? The creation of a written document outlining the agreement among partners should have been one of the first things he did. Next the organization of his office environment where all mailings, billings, invoices and correspondence can be collected, sorted, acted upon and filed. A central phone number and a computer based office system should have been formed. How will he keep in contact with the many different individuals and companies he & his crew have come in contact with?
Incorporation of the business will give SHOW OFF RECORDS the tools needed to create a corporate bank account, savings certificates and a corporate credit card. Additionally it will also give him the basis for paying his taxes and the ability to keep open and honest legal documents.
The entertainment industry is based on communication so a strong ever-increasing database of radio, retail, publicity and industry executives should be started.
Every good song needs distribution and in order to obtain a decent distributor SHOW OFF RECORDS should have an established marketing & promotional plan available with some type of radio or club play prior to acquiring distribution.
