Visit the CD Kiwi website! The artist or band should fill out the form that appears
on the "submit music page" which can be found here www.cdkiwi.co.nz/sumitmusic.htm . This sends your basic details about you and your recording to the team at CD Kiwi. This is the first point of contact so the more detailed and accurate information you can supply, the faster your music can be set up on CD Kiwi.
Wait for the team at CD Kiwi will reply to you. They may request any further information that is required, such as a detailed music bio for the album/s and the amount you want for your CD (wholesale cost). CD Kiwi will inform you of the retail price that the CD will be listed for. CD Kiwi will also give you delivery details for you to send your CD to. The first CD sold on CD Kiwi covers the cost of setting up the listing. Following the first sale you will receive the wholesale price for each CD sold.
Send your CD to the address that CD Kiwi has supplied you with. When CD Kiwi receives the CD the team will scan the cover artwork and begin setting up the listing. If you have requested a specific track to be a sample for your album the CD Kiwi team will upload this also, and customers will be able to sample your music. You will be able to view the listing and make any comments if necessary.
Help CD Kiwi help you. Although this is not a requirement of CD Kiwi, the more you promote your own music and mention that it is available through the CD Kiwi website, the more chance there is of selling your music. CD Kiwi can supply a link for your MySpace site so that fans can access your CD directly. CD Kiwi encourages all of its clients to promote CD Kiwi and increase site traffic for the benefit of all the artists listed.
CD Kiwi features various artists on the main home page; the featured artists are updated on a weekly basis and new listings will often be at the top of the list to be featured in this prominent area. As with most things in the music industry success cannot be guaranteed, but with the support of musicians and their supporters the good word can be spread far and wide. CD Kiwi is proud to support local New Zealand musicians and their efforts to make and share great music to the world.
