charity beattape

Post by balazs »

I want to sell a beat CD online where the money goes directly to my selected charity. Does anyone have any suggestions on a site?

i would say start with advertising on your myspace page and any other forums u might belong too. then maybe get an account with cdbaby. the key is networking to get the word out. just a few suggestions homie, hope it helps

thanks man but I think I'm gonna back out. I wanted to find a site that doesnt charge a high fee to take $ and distribute $ for me, without me being involved at all in the financial part.

I'm sure you'll sell more than you might expect now!

* edit
... I thought an easy would be to give away that tape for free with a side note... so people who wanna support your charity stuff can do it directly.
... just add their bank datas to your blog or whatever and everybody could donate on their own... I know you might get not that much bugz like on the other way but it's at least a lil sth.... anyway just sum thoughts...

maybe there is good site though....?!?!

http://www.haveaheartcharity.org/donations.htm

It provides financial help to children with cancer and thier family who dont have much money.
I feel bad for saying it but I dont have much faith in "finding a cure" charities.

I really like this idea. This might also be a good idea to move forward with with the forum beatape.
