Christian Barcodes Barcode Agreement
This agreement is between CCM Records and (Your name).
Unlike most contracts between a record company and a

requirements. This is not a contract, this is an agreement.

their own copies of their albums.

of your material.

payment for our services.

label.
I. Require the artists to tour.
J. Require reports of any kind.

"Distributed by CCM Records or www.ccmrecords.com"

I will use each barcode for one album or project only. I understand
CCM
Records services are simple and limited to the lettered list above.
