FastForward Feedback System
- What is "FastForward"?
FastForward is a feedback
system designed using TODAY'S technologies and designed to provide accurate
timely and relatively instantaneous feedback to a label from qualified pool
DJs.
- How will this work?
Basically if MAD Promotions is
supplied with a project from a label or promoter by Noon on Thursday of any
and given week, we will have the project in the hands of a few key DJs at
the pool (exact numbers TBD) and these DJs, in turn, will be required to
evaluate immediately this project and if it is warranted, will play in club
or on mixshow that weekend. Feedback from that DJ will be on MY DESK on
Sunday and a report compiled to be on your
desk by Noon Monday.
- What is the cost?
Absolutely nothing!
- What's the catch?
Now there we have it......If
you use this service, we simply ask that in return you fully service the
pool should your project enter a "working" status and promos are
shipped. Not an expensive proposition, considering.
- Future plans:
I am currently in the process
of putting this together on a NATIONAL basis. I am looking for 20 pools with
an average of 5 members each who will adopt the plan as I have laid it out.
This would give a good statistical sampling across the country of a variety
of DJs. Pool Directors would pick local panel. This panel would NOT be
picked by any reason other than the following: 1) Technically able to
participate. 2) Active club/mixshow DJ 3) Active Pool Member in good
standing.
If a participant misses 3
deadlines or two in a row or fall below above requirements, they are dropped
from the panel for a required 60 days. After that period, they will be reassessed
and placed on waiting list.
This national panel would use the
SAME TIME FRAME - In by Thursday - to you by Monday.
- How is this done?
Actually it is easy....just
get a DAT, CD, CD-R, Vinyl, Acetate, Liquid Audio, MP3, or whatever in my
hands by Noon Thursday. I will make sure it gets into the hands of
participating Pool Directors and then into the hands of the panelists by 5
PM Friday. I will compile feedback into a report and have it on your desk
Monday by noon. In the case of numerous multiple projects, we might have to
change that to 5 PM Monday, but we will cross that bridge when we come to
it.
Again - the price will be the
same - Full service (as needed) for participating pools.
