Thank you for your interest in becoming a business development partner with Red Tide Records. Below you will find some essential information on our company and our partnership proposal.


About the Company
• Red Tide Records is a private, independent record label specializing in the promotion of live, local music.
• Red Tide Records does all their own promotion for live shows and events through such avenues as radio, newspaper, flyers, posters, and mailing lists. For larger shows and events, Red Tide Records will also purchase ad space and release press releases to the appropriate sources.
• Since the company’s inception in March of 2006, Red Tide Records has gotten media coverage from the Cape Coral Daily Breeze and Gulf Coast Times newspapers and plans on seeking coverage from many more outlets in the near future.
• As a result of the company’s very large presence on the Internet, Red Tide Records has access to venues, indie-music professionals and musicians all over the country and continuously strives to expand those connections.
• Red Tide Records has a very rigorous screening process that all acts must go through before being promoted by the company. They must have an established following and perform to an increasingly high standard, as the focus of Red Tide Records is live music.


Why become a Red Tide Records Sponsor?

Red Tide Records is currently in the process of organizing a six to eight week tour of the entire Eastern Seaboard of the United States from Florida to Maine. The tour will consist of six bands, three of which will be from Florida and the other three will be from areas surrounding each of the tour’s stops. Tour stops will be every 1-3 days in major metropolitan areas along the eastern U.S.
Red Tide Records is not seeking sponsorship in the form of monetary compensation. While cash donations in the form of patronage are always appreciated, we are hoping instead to trade advertising space for goods and services. This will result in less out-of-pocket costs for business owners while providing Red Tide Records with the essentials needed to manage an effective tour.
All companies that become a business development partner with Red Tide Records will have their company’s logo displayed on the official Red Tide Records RV. Companies providing the most assistance will have the most prominently displayed logos. Not only will partnering companies gain recognition from everyone participating in the tour and those attending the shows, but they will also have the opportunity to be seen on a 27’ traveling billboard and have their name introduced to countless potential new customers. For local companies, this could mean unprecedented exposure that would otherwise be next to impossible for the typical small business owner. For larger companies, this could be a relatively low cost way to promote your brand and take part in a new and exciting marketing strategy, while potentially introducing your company to a new, diverse audience. Not only will musicians and industry professionals see the RV on a regular basis, but the tour will be traveling through such major cities as:
• Orlando, FL
• Philadelphia, PA
• Baltimore, MD
• Washington, DC
• New York, NY
• Boston, MA

If this exciting business proposal sounds like something your company would like to pursue, please contact Amanda, marketing director for Red Tide Records at 239/210-1017.
