From Anthony Booth, Lancs., UK.....
Since subscribing to ISA, I have had one song recorded in Canada (which might never have happened without your legal assistance), and numerous offers of recordings from such groups as the newly-reformed Applejacks, as well as several publishing offers. As a one-time unknown songwriter, all I can say is subscribe now".

From Leon Carr, Production Music Publishing Company, London, UK.....
I would just like to pay tribute to all the work you put into the publications. I find the quality of the writing in the magazine, and the production, quite remarkable, especially as I suspect, you operate on something of a shoestring. Still a real "labour of love" that I for one, am happy to acknowledge.

From Victor Vickers, London N9, UK.....
Perhaps you will be pleased to know that after about 20 years, I have now managed to get two songs published - thanks to a tip in SongSeller. The beauty of it is that I am now 72 years of age. Thank you for all the good work you are doing.

From Kalla Bremer, Belville, South Africa....
I have been a subscriber since my wife pointed out an ad for a free copy of your magazine which appeared in "Exchange & Mart". Many of my songs had travelled the world, returning with the usual "no thanks" (or sometimes, not returning at all!). However, I am happy to announce my first success. I have signed two songs with local publishing firms, and now one of them is out on an LP. A small beginning indeed, but a beginning nevertheless. I would like to thank you and everybody associated with the ISA, for all that you contribute to the education and stimulation of the raw amateur.

From  Tony Topham, Mansfield, UK.....
II am writing to you to thank you because, if it were not for "Songwriter" I would not now have four of my songs under contract.

From Waldi Schubert, London N8, UK.....
Although I am not at present, as active in the songwriting world as I used to be, I still think that you are the greatest single help to songwriters in the UK (and possibly throughout the world).

From Barbara Sherlow, Preston, UK.....
Thanks to you and your advertising columns, I met my collaborator. Now we have had one of our songs accepted by a publisher in Australia who is at this moment, placing it with a recording artist. Keep up the good work.

From Ray Shephard, Hants, UK.....
First of all, my heartfelt thanks for SongSeller. I have just signed a contract for my country song "Steel Guitar" and the publishers are holding two more for consideration. At my age, it is heartening to know that I can still get a song accepted in this business, where the young seem to dominate, so a million thanks to the ISA. Without you, I would have given up long ago.

From Peter J. Little, lpswich, UK.....
I was so pleased to see in Songwriter Magazine that Don Palmer had good things to say about my song at the Charleville Song Contest. Thanks to SongSeller, that song is now under contract, and that makes five songs under contract, all in the past six months!

From Wendy East, London E5, UK.....
Thanks for your advice concerning the contract. Honestly I come out in a cold sweat when I think that I was originally going to subscribe, but had decided not to bother when I was issued with the contract! I'm so glad I changed my mind and joined. I could have lost a lot of money. Meanwhile, I have now signed my first contract!

From Stephen Moore, Liverpool, UK.....
This letter is simply to thank you for printing my ad in "The Songwriter". I have got a musician member to work with me and now we are presenting our songs shortly to music publishers in London - (taken from SongSeller of course!).

From Vance C. Freeman, Lymrico Music, Kent, UK....
I have now been a subscriber for many years, and all your advice, plus the information contained in SongSeller, has not gone unheeded. For example, SongSeller recommended Mr. Todd Lutterodt of December Songs. I demoed some songs and sent them off. However, I was told nicely that my material was more suitable for a group and that I should locate a group ... record another demo ... and try again. I did so - Todd saw the potential and I became the manager of the new group. I am now in the process of getting the new record out.

One thing which I have discovered is that the business is not a "closed shop". If you have the right product, the right approach, and complete faith in your material, plus of course perseverance, then you can make it too. Right now, I have my own studio, nine songs published, and am in the process of setting up my own publishing company. Thank you all at the ISA.

From James Leigh, London, UK....
I have recently taken out a subscription, and must say that your service has given me great encouragement!

From Vince Hughes in Wales....
In the introductory letter which you sent to me, you mentioned that a company who were looking for some uplifting, hooky and eccentric music! Well, I thought I had a couple of songs to suit them, and I promptly got a reply with an offer of a contract! So thank you all for your help and information.

From Billy Boy Brown in London, UK.....
Further to one of your tips, we have just been offered a publishing contract!
