Our goal is to make it as easy as possible for your customers to buy your CDs.
On your website, you link to a custom designed web page in our store. The customer can get more info about your CD(s) and place their order with our secure shopping cart. We will process the order, collect the funds, ship out the order and send you a check.
Your agreement with us is totally non-exclusive. Think of us as a music retailer. In fact, if you are a Canadian artist, or have fans in Canada, you should consider using our store for sales in Canada, even if you are listed in an internet store in the US. The shipping is faster and less expensive.
Imagine the reaction of your fan in Toronto, Ontario when they purchase your product through a US online site and see the shipping costs and the time it takes to receive the product! A surcharge is also added on to the credit card when debited in US funds and then charged back to you in Canadian Funds. Then there will be customs charges and they won't really realize the costs until they see the credit card statement.
If you want your CDs to be in more than one online store, a simple, customer friendly idea is to put a "buy in US" link and a "buy in Canada" link, and you can include the rest of the world to either store. Your fans will appreciate your thoughtfulness.
