Over the years I have developed a system for pitching songs.
First of all you will need songs, words and music in a pitchable form.

I dub the songs I am going to pitch onto a CD using a CD Recorder. I use a stand alone recorder but you may be able to dub songs in a computer if your computer can make discs. First of all you will need to put the songs in a file and then dub them. I have all my song lyrics on a disc and print them when I need them.

I have a basic cover letter that I can print when sending songs. I also have an envelope that I address saved in a program I can print out.

Publishers want songs on CD if not sent by E-Mail. Something I don't do. Be sure to label everything you send. All of my contact info is already on the lyric sheets and cover letter.

As noted, be sure a contact is accepting songs.
