A thin market is not a dead end. Radio is national and nothing about your sheet is limited to one state: 273 stations across the country have a door confirmed open right now, and a programmer two states away can play you exactly as easily as a local one. Radio is also not the only wall. The Doors is 100 verified places that are not radio, 43 of which can actually pay an artist. $9.99, and the radio side stays free either way. See what is in it →
