Make one song pitch every week

- Make one song pitch every week. Having exceptional songs and beautiful recordings of those songs is a great start, but in terms of getting them recorded by other artists or placed in a film or a TV show, they might as well not exist if you haven't shown them to anyone. We get so wrapped up in the creative process that we somehow, amazingly, seem to forget that until someone in the industry has heard our songs, they can't do anything with them. This means you need to begin your search for outlets for your music. There are industry pitch sheets and organizations out there that can help put songwriters together with industry people looking for songs. Make it your business to find out about these pitch sheets and begin the process of submitting your songs when you see an appropriate opportunity. If you do this once a week, you'll have pitched to 52 separate opportunities by the end of the year. That's a significant number.
