Reminder: Store Questionnaire: Help us tell your story ✍️

A big thanks to everyone who has filled out our store questionnaire so far. We are are still collecting answers to help us develop brief bios on each of our partner stores. These stories are posted on Broadtime.com, and we're also including one per week in our newsletter that goes to over 200 record label executives. 

We feel it’s important to spotlight great indie retailers like you to key decision-makers at the labels as well as anyone visiting our website.

You can see examples of the profiles we've done so far this year on our homepage

If you haven't already, please take five quick minutes to fill out this questionnaire (six very short questions) it would help us tremendously in our effort to gather info and properly tell your story.
