Hey there Bruce-
Lots going on around here!! I gave Liz some info on my library market and
programs. We can certainly discuss further. But I've got a few programs
where I am the judge and jury on what's sent. Over the years, there a
several libraries that have a much cooler CD selection than most record
stores (on account of me). I'll definitely hook you up whenever possible!
I'm also starting a new "recommended" monthly list (as opposed to my auto
ship program) that will be emailed out to all our accounts. ALL of your
titles will always make that list. B&T's got a 40%+ market share of public
library A/V business, so when they receive information from us (and things
like "recommended" lists), they take it pretty seriously.
One of the requirements for the autoship program is that I need to have a
copy of the finished product in hand. I've got to make sure the
music/packaging/content is all up to par (since it's being shipped out
automatically without any say from the libraries). So if you could send out
a copy of the newest batch of releases (Carpenter, Hawkes, Sufliff), I can
get things going for May notifications. All of the titles I auto ship are
new releases. However, I'm going to send out the newest Shazam as it's going
to be new to us and most of our libraries won't already have it. Again, I
can go into further discussion later.
But the biggest news to tell is that I'm finally going to have a little pop
fan running around the house this fall!! Shelley is about 14 weeks along
and doing great. We'll know the sex at the next doctor's visit in about a
month. Can't wait to be a dad!! To quote a guy I know (wink wink),
fatherhood is "extremely recommended."
Let me know if you want to chat about the library end of biz...
Thanks!
Chris
