If you have created your own album then you want to do everything you can to promote your name, whether it is by handing out public flyers or even playing local bars. You can’t start selling your CD however until it has a quality front cover, and this is where commercial printers systems come in. A digital printing service will do everything for you, from fitting the image to the template to printing it and more. You can rest assured knowing that your CD sleeve is going to look as good as ever, as well as having a professional touch to the artwork.

Track Listing

A commercial printer’s service will also print the track list for you. All you need to do is provide them with the information you need on the CD, and they will do the rest. You may also need to upload the image of your front cover to the website, but some websites even offer to design it for you. This is great if you’re not very artistic when it comes to cover design, as the end result will be both professional and eye-catching to every viewer.

Choosing Your Finish

A quality printing company will also allow you to choose your finish. This can be anything from gloss to matte, so you always have full creative control when it comes to your project. You can even choose to have your sleeve in black and white or full color, which is useful if you have a set idea in mind. If you’re a little unsure about what sleeve you want, then your printing company may be able to advise your project. They can show you what text styles will look good with your image, as well as showing you the other options they have to offer. Whether you’re creating a pop CD for your own private use or a rock CD for your bands demo, a printing company can do it all and more for a discount price.

Some printing companies may also be able to print off leaflets, so you can offer a discount to whomever purchases you’re CD. This can go a long way when you’re trying to promote your band, so contact your local provider today to find out more.
