(Please put the photo image and bio on the same document. One page is best). Your headshot and bio will be presented to the publisher to increase your visibility and enhance your connection to the publisher. \nPlease only submit the song you entered during the order process. If your song is not submitted on time\, you will not be included in the event and there will not be a refund. \nTHE PROPER WAY TO LABEL YOUR MATERIALS \nEmail Subject Line:    Publisher Name – Event Date – YOUR NAME \nExample: Dallas Gregory – Feb 26\, 2026 – John Smith \nLyric File Labeling:    Title – Your Last Name\, Co-writers’ Last Names (in alphabetical order). \nExample: My Heart’s Song – Smith\, Schaefer\,Worthington.docx\n(Your last name must appear first. Do not include the word “Lyric” in the filename.) \nMP3 File Labeling: Title – Your Last Name\, Co-writers’ Last Names (in order). \nExample: My Heart’s Song – Smith\,  Schaefer\, Worthington\,.mp3\n(Exact same format as lyric. Do not add “mp3”\, “demo”\, or “master” to the filename.) \nBio: First Name Last Name – Bio \nExample: John Smith – Bio.docx\n(nothing more than this information)\n \nNOTE: Listen only participants will not submit songs. \n  \nMore Details About the Event:\n  \n\nThis is a member-only event.\nMembers can take advantage of the “Listen Only” option for only $20 before pitching a song.\nThis event is limited to 30 song pitches.\nOnce you purchase the POP event you will receive a confirmation that will contain your step by step instructions for logging into the webcast.\nGuitar vocals and keyboard vocals are acceptable. You do not have to have a full demo for this event.\nThe publisher will only listen to the first verse and the chorus of your song.\nThe publisher may or may not comment on your song. This event is not intended as a publisher evaluation service; although in most cases\, the publisher will offer constructive advice.\nThis is a real publisher pitch opportunity. The publisher will either PASS on your song OR he may choose to keep your song for further consideration.\nYou are encouraged to stay involved in the webinar while all songs are listened to and here is why:\nOut of respect for the other participants.\nShould the publisher choose to comment on a song\, you will learn from what he has to say.\nIf a publisher takes a song\, you will want to connect with that songwriter and possibly co-write with that writer.\n\n  \n\n
