Music recording distribution business plan, executive summary chart image

1.1 Objectives

  1. Sign and record two new Heavy Metal bands in the first year.
  2. Release the first CD of each group in the first year.
  3. Establish a strong distribution network that will facilitate CD sales.
  4. Establish the necessary strategic alliances to assure the widest possible distribution of our music.

1.2 Mission

The idea of Heavy Metal Praise Records is the brainchild of a group of dedicated Christians who created the Skate Ministry over three years ago. The Skate Ministry is a group of 10 adult skateboarders who spread the word of God to young skateboarders during the weekend at various skate parks throughout the area. Most of these young skateboarders are boys between the ages of 12 to 18. The predominant music in the skateboard culture is Heavy Metal and is played at every skatepark in the area. From the beginning the group realized that the music itself was creating negative actions on the part of young skateboarders and was facilitating a culture of selfishness and violence.

Heavy Metal Praise’s mission is to introduce Christian Heavy Metal bands to the target audience that gives the same musical intensity of popular Heavy Metal bands but with a more positive, constructive message that will move young people to a closer relationship with God.

1.3 Keys to Success

  • Delivering Heavy Metal groups that the target audience will find irresistible.
  • Access the music and distribution network that feeds Heavy Metal artists to the skate culture.
  • Access the traditional Christian music and distribution network that will provide a ready-made group of customers for Heavy Metal Praise Records artists.

Products

Heavy Metal Praise Records, as the name implies, produces CDs of Heavy Metal Christian music groups.

The typical Heavy Metal Praise Records buyer is in the 13-22 year old age bracket–and is a direct result of the attitudes expressed by the label’s bands. The spirit of youth is the driving force of the label, offering proof that the energy of Heavy Metal Praise music exists beyond constraints and categorizations.

While Heavy Metal Praise Records hates to pigeonhole any of its artists’ musical sounds, it can be generalized that all the bands convey an in-your-face sound Christian music. This sound, when coupled with each band’s own creativity and inspiration, allows for the artists to maintain their identity while sharing the same energy, focus and often fan base with their label mates. Heavy Metal Praise Records is an artist-friendly label, priding itself on giving its bands complete artistic and creative freedom.

Market Analysis Summary

Heavy Metal music is the music of preference among boys and young men, ages 12-22, who are part of the skateboarding culture. Heavy Metal music generated $180 million dollars in sales last year.

Skateboarding has grown into an enormously popular recreational sport that generated 1/2 billion dollars in sales last year. Each year the base of skateboarder grows even larger. The sport is still enjoyed by young men in their thirties. In many cases, these older skateboarders still enjoy Heavy Metal music. This represents a huge market opportunity for Christian music.

Heavy Metal Praise Records will focus on two customer groups:

  • Early teen skateboarder.
  • Late teen skateboarder.

4.1 Market Segmentation

  • Early Teen Skateboarders: This group has limited mobility to attend most Heavy Metal group performances. Yet they represent the largest consumer group of Heavy Metal music. Generally, this target group hears the music from friends, at skateboard parks and at skateboard shops.
  • Late Teen Skateboarders: This group represents the strong fan base that comes out for live performances at local clubs. They are also exposed to the music at skateboard parks and skateboard shops. It is critical to build a secure fan base with this group in order to generate sales among the younger skate boarders.

Strategy and Implementation Summary

Heavy Metal Praise Records will use their competitive advantages in a new musical area of Christian music to steadily gain market share. The first advantage is based on Johnny’s extensive inside knowledge of the recording industry. The second advantage is an already established network of contacts within the industry.

5.1 Competitive Edge

Presently, there are few Christian Heavy Metal bands with CDs in the marketplace. The only real competition is the acceptance of the skateboard culture. Can a Heavy Metal group with a christian message gain a fan base? The success of a Heavy Metal band is dependent on its fan base and its live performances. If the energy is there, the fan base will grow and CD sales will follow.

Heavy Metal Praise Records understands that their bands must have the energy before the message will be heard.

5.2 Marketing Strategy

Heavy Metal Praise Records has established the following Promotion and Distribution strategies.

5.2.1 Promotion Strategy

  • Early Teens: Heavy Metal Praise recording artists will be marketed at the weekly sponsored skateboarding events by the Skate Ministry. A band will play at each event during the summer months. In addition, Heavy Metal Praise recording artists will perform as part of the concert series sponsored by Rally Skateboards. At these events, free CD samplers will be given out of Heavy Metal Praise recording artists.
  • Late Teens: Heavy Metal Praise recording artists will be booked to play extensively during the summer of 2002. A Heavy Metal Praise band will be part of the “Split Cross” tour in the region. Split Cross is a Christian music website and a strategic partner of Heavy Metal Praise recording. At these events, free CD samplers will be given out of Heavy Metal Praise recording artists.

5.2.2 Distribution Strategy

Heavy Metal Praise Records have made strategic alliances with both the Coalition of Independent Music Stores (CIMS) and Straight Arrow, the number one Christian Music Website in the country. Heavy Metal Praise Records CDs will be distributed through CIMS to stores regionally and with greater visibility of the bands, the distribution will expand nationally. Straight Arrow will sell the CDs online as part of their campaign to widen the range of artists they offer. Last year, Straight Arrow sales topped $50 million.

5.3 Strategic Alliances

The strategic alliance with the Coalition of Independent Music Stores (CIMS) and Straight Arrow holds great potential.

  • Straight Arrow is a distribution system for Christian artists who want to buck the system and do it without major label backing. The amazing thing is: it truly works. Some of the most sincere, yet cutting edge artists existing today are available to purchase at the Straight Arrow website. They will focus on building sales in the field of Heavy Metal music starting with Heavy Metal Praise artists.
  • Coalition of Independent Music Stores represents a distribution system of 10,000 stores nationally. CIMS creates its own sales programs that focus on independent artists. They have committed to packaging Heavy Metal Praise Recording artists to its regional members. With the bands’ success, they plan to distribute the CDs nationally.

5.4 Sales Strategy

Our combined sales strategy of distributing our product online and in stores will result in the following first year sales goals:

  • 5,000 CDs sold online.
  • 10,000 CDs sold in stores.

The sales totals represent only six months of sales activity. The first six months will be focused on signing the bands and producing the recording.

Management Summary

Johnny is a Christian music industry veteran with over 13 years of music ministry experience with extensive connections with producers and distributors. Johnny toured the USA with the CCM group “Seeds of Change” between 1991 and 1998. It was during this time that Johnny felt God calling him into a ministry that would usher in Heavy Metal music that was so powerful, so fresh…that people would sense the spirit of God and come to a realization that God desired each and every one of His creations to know Him intimately.

This will be a one person business for a while. Johnny’s planned salary is shown in the Personnel table below.
