Be Prepared For South By Southwest and Winter Music Conference

Monday, January 18th, 2010

It’s 2010 and time to start thinking about the annual festivals that will benefit YOU. All around us we hear that this is the year to make a big push and get heard- we want to help with that. As a Musician, Label or Entertainment/Media business, it’s pretty important to attend at least one music festival a year. SXSW and WMC are two of the big starters that are coming up fast. We’re hoping to enlighten you on how important it is to prepare, not just show up. There are so many ways to conquer a festival- high rollin’ networker, party animal, on the cheap or go with the flow. Whatever reason you’re going, there’s a way to be prepared and Eternite Media would like to be your go-to source for exploring your options and fulfilling the promotional decisions you make.
It is important to get your marketing and promotional plan started early.  When you work with us, you will be covered in every area that you need, and even more than you thought. Eternite Media offers design and printing solutions for simple business cards, intricate flyers, logos or branding for your entire realm of products. We are able to replicate or duplicate your CD and DVD with basic black print or full color thermal. Paper printing options like digi-paks, one page inserts or full booklets can work in a package with a jewel case or even a clear poly sleeve. Merchandise is also a classic advertisement for your brand’s success, including T-shirts, buttons or stickers- all of which are a constant reminder of you to all your fans. We can put together whatever you need- any propaganda materials big or small and can even ship it directly to your accommodations.

Your Sharpie CD Sucks

Saturday, December 12th, 2009
Pack of Blank CD-R’s: $25… Sharpie: $1… An unprofessional disc that is unexciting and doesn’t make the listen excited to hear what’s on it… WORTHLESS
When you put out a demo CD the music you pour into it is a work of art so why shouldn’t the disc be a work of art too! Let’s face it, a sharpie CD just sucks. You potentially ruin the presentation of your product by scribbling the info on it.
Why even make a CD when you could just put an MP3 on your myspace page or on blogs? Well that is pretty passive… Any artist with a decent fan base is likely to tell you that getting something personal and physical into the hands of their fans is an absolute necessity. I go more into depth in <this> blog on the subject and I will be expanding more on the need to get out on the streets to sell yourself as a brand in upcoming blogs.
The saying “first impressions are everything” hold true even when it comes to a simple demo. I guarantee you If I put a sharpie CD and a basic black thermal text printed disc side by side, anyone would take the thermal disc over the sharpie disc. Same goes with black text versus full color. You get what you pay for when it comes to the wow factor, so you should make a small investment into marketing yourself and have a good quality presentation. In pretty much all of our day to day activities here at Eternite Media (whether it be marketing campaigns, equipment purchases, even sales) we are always looking at our ROI or Return On Investment. Basically, how successful is the results of the investment we put into something, be it time, money, labor, etc. A lot of times it is hard to measure that return when it comes to the actual impression we have made on people. The same is true about your demo CD’s. In a sense, if you get that person to sign up for your mailing list or you see them at your next show, you will know that you have made a good return on that investment. It is up to you to decide if stepping up your demos to professional duplication is a worthwhile investment for your personal goals. Be sure not to forget that your time is money, and often times the added value of quality duplication plus the time you save from creating copies yourself is a much better choice.
That being said, I am in no way attempting to say anyone is less of an artist if they don’t have their demos done with a duplication company. Your content should be your number one priority and is the one thing that truly matters. My goal is to get you thinking about whether stepping up your investment on your discs is a worthwhile expense.
I feel so strongly that I have to decided to offer anyone who has not done work with us in the past an amazing opportunity. Send me up to 10 of your sharpie CD’s and I will send you back the same amount back with our black thermal printed CD’s and your music on it, plus a sample of our full color thermal printed discs. If you have a sticker label or inkjet printed CD I will send you our Full Color thermal discs with your music on it plus a sample of our black text thermal printed discs.
A few
-Only new customers who have not ordered disc products from us in the past can participate
-You will need to cover the postage out to Los Angeles and we will take care of the return.
-We can transcribe your sharpie CD to black text (we will use a font of our choice)
-If we are sending you full color discs you will need to provide us with your own artwork
-Your content must follow our intellectual property rights policy and terms of services, which we can send you through email.
Please contact us at info@eternitemedia.com for full details and to get your free discs.
I am really excited to offer this, and I wish I could do it all the time, but this is only valid for a very limited time so tell your friends, and get in contact with us today before it is too late.

Duplication and Replication

Disc duplication (CD-R/DVD-R burning) and replication (retail manufacturing) are offered with black thermal, full-color thermal, single-color silkscreen and full-color offset disc printing.  A full range of paper printing and packaging options are available.

Digital Distribution

Digital Distribution at Eternite Media is offered through a partnership with Symphonic Distribution. We can now upload your music to the internet’s best digital download sites including iTunes and Amazon Mp3! Now you can have your physical and digital versions of your music taken care of at the same time. Our prices are fantastic just like the rest of our services, PLUS we will prep and submit the audio for you while we press your disc.

Printing

We offer outstanding pricing on the most common printed promotional tools with many minimum quantities as low as 250 pieces. Whether you need flyers or t-shirts, we have a cost-affective solution to meet your needs. Most of our paper products are printed with recycled content stock and vegetable based inks for a superior look that is easier on the environment.

Archiving

Our Digital Asset Preservation Package is an archival solution for digital content. This non-proprietary cross platform optical disc (DVD) back up will protect your digital assets from 50 (silver) – 300 (gold archival) years. Through our automated process we are able to output onto optical discs that require no special software or equipment to open them. We do not use any data compression programs or special secret equipment to archive your project. We currently offer packages for the music, photography and film industries, but we can also able put together custom packages for anyone’s needs.

Vaulting

Eternite Media will soon offer secure storage solutions for your masters. Our off-site location is the top-of-the-line in security, temperature/humidity control, and disaster protection. With a very minimal monthly investment, and no hidden costs or contracts, you can have your masters stored in our private vault space where only select employees have access. From photo negatives to music to royalty statements- anything you want to guarantee to be safe from fire, flood, earthquake, or Godzilla, we can vault.

Please contact us if interested.
