| Should I pay to get my songs published? |
| NO!!! If a company asks you to pay them to publish your songs, they are not legitimate. |

| There are many variables that can effect the outcome of a demo. Cost of the studio, musicians, and how many songs you demo at once are the biggest variables. However, a good guitar/vocal should run no more than $100 a song while a full band demo will run $300 to $1000 a song (Depending mostly on how well prepared you are when you go in the studio).
