I run a nonprofit called The Global Z Recording Project. We hosted our first songwriting contest and the response was, well, dismal. http://www.globalzrecording.org/phase-1-maryland/To be fair, we had a very targeted audience. We promoted an Americana genre songwriting contest in mid-November to K-12 and college/university students across the state of Maryland by sending out almost 1000 emails to Maryland-based music organizations, media, educators, professors, etc, plus we posted promo blips on our website and social media. So I am hoping I can get input from the wonderful JPF members to get your thoughts on what motivates you to submit your songs to a songwriting contest. Does prize money really matter? Devising a successful formula for hosting songwriting contests is crucial to our operational model, so your thoughts are highly valued and appreciated. Bill Lord Founder & Executive Director The Global Z Recording Project all of the successful songwriting contests have big prizes, are nationwide, and have VIPs involved. Just an observation.

"We are all millionaires, billionaires even, because right now we have today. And today is worth more than all the wealth we can imagine. So spend today wisely. Spend tomorrow wisely. Enjoy the wealth of today, and realize it is worth far more than all the money and possessions of tomorrow and beyond." -Brian Austin Whitney
