06ÌýFollowing Up Once you've sent them your track, wait a week before you make a follow up call.
"Try and follow up send outs with a brief call or e-mail to see if they received it and what they thought of it. Again many of the top deejays are very busy but if you don't ask you don't get."

This will allow them some time to really form an opinion of your track and get some other reactions to it.
If you phone twice and they seem like they're still undecided or unwilling to give you their opinion they probably don't like it so ease off and let them make the move.
They probably get 30 - 40 demos a week so they are getting loads of calls already and won't appreciate it if you bug them.
When you do get contacted make sure you're ready.
If you're asked about live PAs make sure you know when your last one was and where your next one will be.
If your track gets played on air, can the listeners hit an up to date and fully functioning website - are the MP3s and pics relevant and downloadable?
