    Get Your CD Ready for the Holidays
    posted by Chris at CD Baby on Friday October 17 2008 @ 09:19AM PDT
    News from Inside It seems effortless to get your album posted on CD Baby, right? Well, actually, a lot goes on behind the scenes here to get your CD up and ready for sale. We're not complaining! Just letting you know that in order to guarantee your album is available in time for the holiday buying season, you need to have it to us by early December (and be sure you follow all of the required steps).

    In order for CD Baby customers to receive their CD in time for Christmas via regular USPS mail, their order must be placed by December 15th. It takes us between 6 and 10 days to get an album up and running on our website once we receive it, so to ensure your album is available in time for Christmas delivery, please have the following steps completed no later than December 5th (the earlier the better!):

    1. Add your CD to your account through http://cdbaby.net/submit.

    2. Pay the $35 submission fee with a debit/credit card or mail us a check.

    3. Mail five copies of your CD (with square cover artwork) to us by or before December 5th to leave room for any delays.

    4. Keep in contact with us at cdbaby@cdbaby.com to be sure that everything is on track.

    NOTE: If you want your project available as a digital download on http://cdbaby.com in time for the holidays, be sure to have it to us by December 1st and maintain close contact with us to be positive that we have all of the information we need.

    To have your album available as a download on websites such as iTunes in time for the holidays, you should have the CD to us no later than November 25th. It takes a little more time to get your album available on those sites.

    Happy Holidays!

    Hey Chris!

    What would be a reasonable date to have our Christmas music album to you to be up and running the Tuesday(the 25th) before Thanksgiving?
    We don't care when it posts digitally elsewhere.We want it to be "Physically" available with CdBaby by that date.

    thanks for all you do!

    Johnny Freezze gets noticed with CD Baby!
    Cd Baby is the best way to get started on the web with your CD sales and distribution. The web will begin to notice you. It's a fact, and it works!

    Coming in 2009
    Look for the next hit by Johnny Freezze called "THE REPLICAN"
    On march 20th 2009 Johnny Freezze will be releasing a new CD through CD Baby. The CD is entitled (Replican).
