kovacs, care to share sales figures to date?

And I still think it would be cool to show receipts from the charities - I'm under the impression that we did make some donations already, correct?

We have NOT made donations, because we wanted to make sure we had enough money for the preorder shipping and handling.

We have sold 184 CDs to date, including preorders, and currently have about $1600 in free funds which is ready to be donated.

After the preorders we have sold about 8 CDs, so we need to get our marketing effort in gear. I'm waiting for the 10 CDs I ordered so I can send some to music reviewers and radio shows here in Norway.

Think you could go to the website and read our press release and then translate it into Finnish? Maybe post some around Helsinki, etc?

Translation won't be a problem. I just don't know where to post it here in Finland. I will think of something tho.

...on a side note, I love and hate finnish. There are unique things you can use the language for, but then again, so do the other languages. I will try to make the translation I made quickly a bit better before giving it out to anyone.

That's great mate!

No worries -- just PM me when you're done with your translation and we can also put it on the Katrina Relief CD Website.

Cheers,
Alex

Yeah, I sent out some emails to 4 local newspapers last night. Here's a good link that has some media sources listed by region:

http://dir.yahoo.com/News_and_Media/By_Region/

That should help everyone find some media sources in their area to send the press release to.
