It's ok. So you do everything by hand? No graphic design?

ERIK: Idea..... I could distribute for you. (No, not drugs lol.)
Send me like, 50 copies of your CD's, and I could try and sell them. I wouldn't cut you short. Shit, I would find a way to prove to you that I didn't cut you short.
I really want to help RHHF!

And also, when do you think it will be done, regardless of what you think of my idea?

Lol dude, we discussed this when I was in OK. Yes, we planned for you to help sell some copies. 50 copies is A LOT though lol. that's like $150, maybe more. My plan is sending you 10 copies or so to sell for $5 a piece and if you sell all of them you get a free copy and if you like, more copies sent your direction. You will also get to keep a percentage of each copy you sell.

We did?
Damn... Second time today I forgot something that I had gone over before lol. Yeah dude, I will help for sure.

Just curious, how much? Your much more economically-inclined than me when it comes to bussiness and shit... After all, you are in a bussiness class!!! Let's see.... If each copy goes for 5 a piece, and we have 10 at first... Shit I would be cool with 50 cents each if that isn't too much for you. That's 10 percent. Would you be cool with that? I'm willing to drop/rise. Whatever you see fit. But keep in mind, the more money I have (until I get a job), the more supplies I can get for the Yu-Du. (UPDATE: My mom said that tomarrow we will start clearing out a storage room where I can use the Yu-Du at! WIN!)

Nice! Yeah, the plan was to give you more than that. I was thinking you would get at least like a dollar, maybe 2. Idk yet though. I'll think about it. This has nothing to do with business though, just getting product out there. I could care less how much I make off of cross country sales. If you sell 10 quick, I'll give you another 10 to sell and I will pay for them with the money I make off of sales both of us make.

Yeah dude just whatever works for you. I just don't want you to feel like I'm distributing just to make money off of your product, because I genuinely enjoy a lot of shit I hear from you, and other artists here on RHHF.
And dude, I could probably sell 20 quick! The only thing is, I don't know what people would think of buying a CD they never heard. Maybe you could make like a minute long teaser, and I could set up a booth (with proper licensing), and just play the album on repeat on some loudspeakers or something. Either that, or get a local CD shop to sponsor you for a day and blast your shit through their speakers, so anyone that came in would get the chance to hear you, thus creating a possible opportunity to gain a fan/new member.
Just ideas.
But really now that I think about it, it might be hard to convince people to buy CD's they have never heard before. But if I get the shirts, some CD's/Mixtapes in from people besides you, and get the license to run a booth, we'd be set!

Just set up a boombox and bump the album and ask people if they want to buy it lol. It's not hard. If the music is dope it will speak for itself. Print some t-shirts and some RHHF business cards, hand them a business card and ask them to buy an album and tell them if they buy an album they get a t-shirt for half price.
