Hey Jackie,

Cold calling publishers is a pretty tough ask. Real publishers really don't exist anymore ( like they did in the old days ) , they're more of an "after the fact" kind of thing to sow up the leagalities, after you've already made a tentative arangement with placement.

A good example is music libraries, whom foward your music to a prospective client, and then if the deal works out, take the role of publisher to sign off on it. ( along with 50% of the take )

A better option would be to work out who the up and coming artists are in your area or beyond, and get to know them as they grow. There are great artisits out there who are starting out, and who are not great songwriters.

Form your relationships early, and that will then grow to where others will introduce you, and you can take it from there.

As Mike D says, "It's not who you know, it's who knows YOU".

Good luck.
