Man...I'm thinking around...500 for right now...

I like the promo-mix idea, but guys, I'm not even a full fledged teacher: an assistant teacher...I will be fronting the cash on the credit card because I do not make shit! Word? If that's the case, how am I gonna front money for the CD AND the promo?

make the promo-mix a free deal to spread around maybe?, to lure in purchases

500 sounds ok. what about the pre-orders? lets bring it up, man... i mean, if only SOME ppl will pre-order, it'll solve the money problem...

promo: i dont know if noixe idea was to put it on cd? some mp3 promo mix to spread via internet should work for promotion, shouldn't it?

nah I just meant we circulate a half hour mix with vocal drops built in "WWW.BREAKINTHEROAD.ORG," katrina-appropriate news quotes and shit. put it up and e-mail everyone. spread the word about the thing.

I don't know how much it'll help for pre-orders, but it'll hype it up if nothing else...

shit, im excited, you should be too.
 
Fellow Strutters,

I am currently waiting for the final art piece and graphic design from Mr. BobbyDee. He has told me that he will be able to complete this task within 48 hours.

I will begin taking pre-orders once I have submitted the Master CD and Graphic Design Proof to the CD production company. I want very much to have this done well before Christmas. I believe that those of you in the Bay Area will be able to recieve them before Christmas/Hannakuh/Kwanzaa because I will deliver them myself if I have to. I won't know about the rest of US/World shipping until I have the CD in production.

You see, it will take 10 days (at minimum) to have the CD produced and sent back to me. At that point, I can start getting orders and slanging it at shops, etc.

I feel that this will be a very critical time given that it's the holiday season and I will be more likely to move units during this time. The window of opportunity will close shortly and I'm afraid that not only will I be able to move units, I will be unable to recop the $1000 that I am dropping on this piece.

My situation is this (charitable yet preactical): I wanna do good for the folks down in the South without homes, but I also don't wanna go broke myself. I am a humble man with LITTLE money...I have only agreed to use my own funds because I said I would (word is bond) and I want to do right by people who are less fortunate.

Take care y'all

I'll order as many as I can afford. If at least a dozen others do the same you shouldn't have any problem.
