High Quality Products Made in the USA.

ON-DEMAND CD MANUFACTURING
Making Only The CDs You Need, When You Need Them.
​​

Image a world in which you only manufactured the CDs that you had already sold, with no need to keep huge inventories laying around. Imagine the whole system working quickly and efficiently while integrated directly with Unable's E-Commerce solutions. Well, that world is HERE. We'll take the orders, manufacture the necessary units and ship them right to your customers. All you need to do is cash the check!  

Set-up Price:  FREE w/ digital distribution or $24.99 without.

Here's How it Works:​
​

  1. You send us the .WAV files for your audio, and .JPG files for your artwork, at the proper specifications.

  2. We load the audio and artwork into the computer system that manages the On-Demand Manufacturing process.

  3. We make your CD available for sale online.*

  4. When a customer orders your CD, we process the transaction.

  5. We then manufacture the CD(s) that your customer ordered and package it for shipping.

  6. We ship the CD directly to your customer, and the order is fulfilled!

  7. You keep 90% of the profit*, and you don't have to lift a finger.

Why This is For You
It's Time To Stop Wasting Money.
​​

  • No need to spend tons of money to press thousands of units that you might not sell.

  • Manufacture ONLY the CDs that have already sold!

  • We do all of the work for you!  We sell the CD online, we process the payments, make the CDs and take care of the shipping!

  • Works in quantities from 1 to 2000.

  • Need CDs for yourself, to sell at shows? This system can handle that too! You buy them from us at our special "direct-to-artist" price, and then we'll manufacture whatever quantity you need and ship them right to you. Prices start as low as $1.22 per CD, including U.S. shipping!*

  • If you want to sell your CDs online through your own website too, that's fine with us. You've got two options to do this:

    • Order a few CDs from us to keep on hand in order to fulfill the orders that you take.

    • You pass the order through directly to us (including payment and shipping destination) and we'll make the disc and ship it to your customer.

For all other packaging options and needs, please see our Standard CD Manufacturing below.

  • You get 90% of the net profit generated by online sales, as described immediately above. Net profit is revenue remaining after deduction of costs for manufacturing, materials, labor and shipping.

  • Since CDs sold "direct-to-artist" for artist use are sold at a deep discount, there is no revenue share applicable to these units; Unable Music Group retains 100% of the profit. You, however, are free to resell your purchased units at any price that you determine - and you retain all revenue from such sales.

We understand that merchandise sales are one of the most important revenue streams available to an artist today. That's why Unable Music Group is committed to helping our clients build their merch options and inventory, while maintaining a healthy budget. A band should be focused on writing and playing great music, not getting bogged down in the details about t-shirts, hats and other items; not running around from vendor to vendor to find what they need. At Unable Music Group, we can take care of all of this for you - all in one place!

 

We can provide you with the most popular merch items including:

  • Vinyl records

  • T-Shirts & sweatshirts (high quality screen printing)
