The ArtistFirst Radio Network has been very successful in helping independent Authors, Musicians and Bands get heard worldwide since 1997.. ArtistFirst is The original and unique network of independent artists that puts the Author - First! (what a concept!)

An ArtistFirst Host interviews you LIVE over the phone, for about an hour, all the time discussing your life, your book and why folks should buy it.

We call it INFO-TAIN-MENT. You send us some material in advance of the show, and our host will use those materials to make the interview interesting and engaging. Our hosts will often read e-mails such as questions and comments from listeners, LIVE on-air as they come in during your broadcast.

Listeners follow along as we direct them to your website & post stuff about you on our website. Web Radio listeners regularly surf the web while they listen to our station. ArtistFirst Radio is interactive radio worldwide.

While your show is airing live worldwide, the station engineer is also making a backup copy of the show. A few days later the show copy will be posted to the Archive section of our web site, where it will remain indefinitely. Anyone can listen to the show immediately for free, and save a copy, load it to their iPod or perhaps burn a CD. Also, your show audio can easily be copied and posted to your website!

And yes you can afford it because there is no set fee. We only ask the Artist to make a donation to the station in ANY amount they wish. No kidding. Whatever you wish! Name your price for air-time and a 1-hour showcase radio infomercial that will exist in cyberspace probably forever!

Donations and some ad revenues sustain our unique experiment to help independent authors and musicians.

Our motto remains: We Can Lose Money Better Than Anyone!

Your donation in any amount helps keep the dream alive, and affordable for all Independent Authors.

By accepting a donation based policy, ANY Author, regardless of financial status, can be included in this series. We try to help everyone.

What's your plan to reach tens of thousands of listeners, for an hour..... for whatever donation you care to make?
