• Do not call or email asking if it's okay to send something. We listen to most everything that comes across the desk. Sometimes this takes awhile, so please allow two or three weeks before calling to ask if your CD has been received and reviewed. There is no particular genre we favor over others.
  
• Do not send MP3s via email. They will be deleted.
  
• Send your submission package to:
  24 Hour Gospel Network
  P. O. Box 1184

• For follow-ups, email is best. Send your follow-up emails to: submissions@24hourgospelnetwork.org
  
  An open letter to record company executives, managers, artists and promoters from the music director of  24 Hour Gospel Network
  
  Before we can even begin discussing the package you're about to send, there are a few things you should know about 24 HOUR GOSPEL NETWORK. First and foremost, Each member of our staff is committed and devoted to MINISTRY. We're here because we enjoy networking with our music friends around the world and to have the opportunity to assist artists in their efforts to promote and market their music..
  
  24 HOUR GOSPEL NETWORK receives hundreds of CDs each week for our online gospel internet station. Unfortunately, it take's time to review each submission. So sometimes it may take a while for us to even get around to listening to your CD.

The most beneficial thing you could do is listen to 24 HOUR GOSPEL NETWORK for a bit and make an honest decision about whether your music fit our music format. This small step alone could save yourself the cost of a CD and postage.

We rarely accept demos for airplay, but we much rather prefer the FULL LENGTH project. We never add mp3 files and rarely add 3-song singles. This is unfortunately due to space constraints more than quality of music.

If you care enough about your music that you want other people to pay attention to it, you need to make it stand out somehow. The biggest mistake many ARTISTS make is to send out a boring package. We've listened to some truly horrible music because of clever packaging. Think of what a bit of creativity could do for your brain-melting demo.

After a week or two, call our business office 936-546-3630 to follow up on your submission. There's a pretty good chance that your submission has been received and reviewed. However, don't be offended if your submission has yet to be reviewed; it's nothing personal.  Now that you've called, your submission has a better chance to be moved to the top of the stack. When you call about the CD again and ask if it has been added, don't be offended if it wasn't. Again, it's nothing personal. We're just picky, remember?

We depend on unique and independent artists to keep our programming interesting and vital. We get really excited when we hear something new and different. The aim of this little bit of honesty isn't to discourage you from sending us your music. We just want to be up-front about what we look for when we sift through the stacks of CDs we receive each week. Hopefully it will be of use to you not only for submitting music to 24 Hour Gospel Network, but to any other radio station in the country.
