What do you mean exactly by a "CD promoter" - is that like a publicist? :confused:

What I am looking for is a business that their purpose is to send your CD to the radio stations and then call the stations and get them to play the CD on the radio. :)

Harvey, I think in the Philippines it's not enough to send your CD and call them, you also have to PAY the radio station to play the music! :rolleyes:
