I Started My Own Label, HOTBOX! Records. & Let Me Tell You IT was The Hardest job EVER! I Eventually Sold All Artist Contracts Off To Other Labels. If Your Very Determined To Make This Label Work, DONT DO IT ALONE!!! Get A Buddy Or Someone To Help You Out~~!!!
Another Thing Is Dont Try To Distribute The Records By Yourself. IF your Label has Many Bands/Dj'z/Groups, Try Getting A Contract With a Distribution Company (Good One's Are TRITON, Capitol Records & Interscope Records), If your A Small Group With 3-5 People On Contract, There Are Many Online Distribution Methods (TRAXINSPACE.com Is Very Good)
A Big Thing To Do is to SIGN YOUR ARTIST!!!
If you Dont, Then They Can Leave When They Want & Whatever You Have Done to Help Them, Won't Be Worth Nothing To You!!
