CD INFO SHEET

Vision
• To create a worship CD that would capture the essence of what God is doing at the Helix.
• To trust God to provide the money for the CD and produce 1000 copies
• To share that music with others for the purpose of ministry.
• To offer the CD for free for those who don’t have the money to purchase it.
• To use the revenue God provides through the CD for future music projects, worship at the church and to further the greater Helix vision.

Free Copies
• Everyone who contributed to the CD will get a couple free copies
• Everyone else in the church gets 1
o With these free CD’s comes the assumption that all previous copies will be destroyed and all downloaded versions will be replaced.
• All additional copies will be available at a $10 suggested donation.
o If you want a copy for someone and you/they don’t have the $10 that is fine but please only ask for free CD’s if you have someone specific in mind.

Sales Ideas
• Church
• See the Stanfill’s with Cash /Check. If they aren’t there see Alanna.
• Mail (online sales for now)
• Send $ to the PO Box or give it to Stanfill’s with Cash/Check (+ $2.00) and the address to mail it too.
• Store
• CD’s will be available in stores Music Millennium and Everyday Music and online through CD Baby.com.
• We will be sending the CD to distributors* for other possible sale options
• Internet
• Music will be available for download on iTunes, Napster and Rhapsody by listing it on CD Baby.
Promotion
• We will be sending copies to Christian radio stations.
• *Currently Grassroots Music and worshipmusic.com (two high-profile Christian independent online distributors) are reviewing the project and may feature it prominently.
• We would like to play some worship services at churches, coffee shops and clubs.

What to do with the $
• The next $2000.00 goes to worship equipment (200 sold)
o $800 Duplicator
o $1200 Bass, Guitar, and repairs to the drums
• The first $3000.00 goes to the next CD (500 sold)
o $1000 recording and mixing
o $600 Mastering
o $1400 Duplicating
 In the event that the CD sells like hot-cakes we will use $1400 of the ‘next CD $’ to duplicate another 1000.
 Then we will replace the $1400 for the ‘next CD’
• The rest of the money will go to the Helix for general purposes
