Package/Cut Selection and Editing Services (Client Stations)
- Prospective clients are encouraged to contact us anytime via News Music Now's parent company, the Daystar Creative Group. Please give us any pertinent information about your station's branding, community involvement, strong points and the overall feel you want the music to convey. If you're gravitating towards a certain style of news music or have the graphics, but no idea what type of music to go with, we can help you fill in the blanks. Got some choices on your list but no idea where to go from there? As long as the package is in our library or our partnering companies can get us the cuts, we will be able to make your newscast's perfect sound. You might be surprised how we can help!
Becoming Partners with News Music Now (Music Companies)
- All news music companies, no matter the amount of syndicated packages offered, are encouraged to become partners of News Music Now. We're a non-profit platform dedicated as a hub for news music companies to display their offerings in a central place where stations can look for the music thats fits their newscast. To partner with us, please email joe@newsmusicnow.com and give us a background on your company and the packages you offer. Current client lists are appreciated and a CD-quality sampler is required - the sampler will be on a page ONLY for your company and will include any information you want on it (see our other sampler pages on the left bar of the Local Music section for examples.) Your sampler will be password-protected and only available to prospective clients of your company.
If we are contacted by a client interested in one or more of your packages, we will request the cuts from you for an in-house synch and then forward the client on to one of your sales representatives. Cut samples for our Reference Library are appreciated, but not required. Consider it a place to give news stations a broader overview of your packages and a resource we can use to make synchs for your future clients. News Music Now is a great, free location to help advertise your company, especially if you don't have a corporate website, or are looking for multi-site advertising.
