In last week’s Indie Music Minute, Disc Makers CEO Tony van Veen discussed several ways to build your brand as an artist.
In today’s Indie Music Minute, Tony wants to inspire you with some cool CD samples that will definitely elevate your brand. After all, when you have a great-looking CD, you set yourself apart from all the other artists who have commoditized their music by only having it on streaming sites. A CD says, “I’ve arrived,” like no stream ever could. And fans LOVE them - the graphics, liner notes, pictures… it goes on!
Check out today's video with all the possible options if you wanted to put your CDs in our eco-wallets, and be inspired to build your brand with physical media. Get started with your own eco-wallet order by visiting us online: www.discmakers.com/products/e...
And premium CD packages that build your brand aren’t just limited to eco-wallets. Luxurious Digipaks are extremely popular and quite affordable. What’s your favorite disc packaging format? Leave us a comment and let us know!

This kind of amazing transparency in selling your product makes me very happy to continue being a Discmakers customer (over 10 years and counting). Wish more companies were this open and transparent with marketing, you guys are great!

It's so refreshing to see "CDs" or "discs" from "Disc Makers" being advertised and sold in such a straightforward, no nonsense manner. There's something honest and refreshing about it: selling the thing you sell with apparent candor and in a detailed fashion.

Thank you, Tony! I'm all for it. About eight years ago I got a two-panel, and even with just two I was able to get a lot on the cover. I put a link on the back (not an active link, of course!) to a document online that's about fourteen pages if you put it in a PDF. To ensure that the reader can still get to it in case of re-shuffling of web pages, you can get a DOI. You can also make the link into a short link for those customers who can't be bothered with the extra step of going to a web page. But I think many customers don't read all the text content on the hardcopy cover, anyway. Just some thoughts. And again, thank you for the eco-ideas.

For classical releases I still do jewel cases, though I might consider DigiPaks. They're just the standard size for CD racks, and have a more readable spine than thinner packaging, which is important when people have tens of thousands of CDs. The booklet can have many pages for even more content than most other formats. Also, collectors don't want their CDs getting scratched, so the spindle is still important. It also keeps the CD from falling out randomly. If the jewel case gets damaged, it can be replaced, and meanwhile it protects the contents, both the CD and the booklet.

Admirable artworks concepts. I understand pretty well what you're talking about. I am heading to do it as soon I finish an álbum I'm working on it since the beginning of the year. Good selling!

Hi Tony. I'm a CD collector and these kind of sleeves are a nightmare. Cardboard is nowhere near as durable as plastic and there is no way of removing the disc without touching the area where the data is, which goes against the advice that CD buyers have always been given. Pulling the discs out of cases like these scratches the discs. I refuse to buy any albums that are packaged like this. It's popular with the music companies because it's cheaper. The consumer gets a massively inferior product though.

there are other companies besides disc makers that can make gorgeous wallets that look like miniature gatefold vinyl packaging with thick durable materials and with a protective lining inside the wallet where the CD is or a little sleeve that holds the CD when it's inside the wallet. it's possible to make great wallets. but you are totally right. if someone is being cheap when they order from didc makers they should just get jewels cases because these wallets will scratch up the CDs and the packaging is difficult to store and will not last at all. it's not fit for a professional project worst of all, sometimes when you are handling wallets the whole CD can just fall out of the packaging randomly. everything about it just damages the CD and you are right companies only want this stuff because it is the cheapest option.

I will need help from someone lining up my artwork . I’m still getting my artwork finished . I’m a little lost as the artists is making a one page insert . What I would like to do is making like a booklet to put either in the same slot or another slot. So I need direction.

So, what's a Diva Dee? Also what's this thing called a CD, I think old cars older than 5 years have them and very old laptops. That's it. Records and streaming.....

Sadly there is white unprinted paper instead of carrying the printing over. It takes away from the aesthetics. Atomic Disc prints so there are no ugly white spots.

That is available too.
