Bio: CTWpromotions was formed officially in 2005 as a way to continue to help and promote all genres of music artists in the new era of Myspace. The name derived from the influential indie record label of the same name which was started way back in 1991 by Mike “CTW” Warden.
Mike Warden is the founder/owner of Conquer The World Records (CTW) the notable indie label. CTW is always on the cutting edge in creative online marketing concepts and promotional avenues. He is considered a noteworthy A&R talent scout as several bands he has discovered and put under the CTW label have gotten to the next level and even have started careers under "major" level record companies and subsidiaries. Let alone the influence those bands have directly had on their respective sub genres, multiple record labels have been started on consultation encouragement and inspiration early on from the CTW label. February 2006 added another accomplishment as Warden became a cutting edge audio book publisher. He is now 36 years old and continues to nourish up and coming artists through the CTWpromotions agency.

Commentary...Aug 08
It's been several years since CTW started offering Myspace promotion on a service basis. We have weathered several storms and time periods of change in the trends of Myspace culture. Most recently we have been attacked in blogs, and people have outright made up all kinds of things out of thin air with no substance in anyway shape or form. We have made enemies in many of those companies because of the articles about avoiding myspace scams. Heres the bottom line.
We're still here-
No legal notices, No deleted profiles, No complaints.
Those fake promoters and companies are not-
We do legitimate work, they don't.
Period.

(As heard on Oraclebroadcasting.com, as seen in the Indie Bible, Google Adwords, Music Industry Newsletters etc.)
CTW Promotions aka (Conquer The World Records)when not working on it's own business deals does myspace promotion for labels, authors, bands, artists, and so forth. It's quite simple actually would you rather have more potential fans checking you out daily or less potential fans? Would you rather have your music profile blowing up daily or just sit there collecting dust?
To any musician in this day and age the myspace profile is the most important tool in you're arsenal. We know you are serious about the music so you should be serious about the activity on your profile.

CTW is not a views and plays whore company anyone that really cares about the safety of the profile would never ever do this nor should you ever contract one of those sites to do it for you. To be perfectly blunt those companies are trying to scam you out of your money. From my experience CTW is one of the ONLY LEGITIMATE MYSPACE PROMOTION companies out there. There are many with fancy looking flash pages that are willing to trick you with fake testimonials and no music business history and credentials. Don't ever say we didn't try to warn you. I'm trying to be nice here those companies will rip you off for hundreds of dollars before you realize it's a scam.

Certainly be aware that if you are using any of the companies listed on this page you are being scammed. Click here to read Wired magazines blog regarding fake companies.
You can get legitimate high powered effective promotion for little as $125 a week to compliment other campaigns such as booking/tour/radio/Press and PR/label/CD/iTunes Releases etc.

Services include traffic boosting, friends, views and plays, comments and so forth.

Testimonials in order of most recent first.
Mike really knows what he's doing. I was very skeptical at first so I researched him for a few days before going in and my manager did verify the research as well. He (CTW) got me over a thousand fans in a week and a half, plus plenty of comments and plays. I have never seen anything like it! It's well worth the money. He has worked very close and personally with me to design some quality graphics as well. Don't go with ANYONE else! He's the only one in my opinion that can do this legitimately. You are welcome to message me on my page to verify this testimonial.

I have worked with CTW many times over the last year and they always deliver exactly what they advertise, and that's important given all the scams out there. CTW offers a great way to market on a grass roots level for a good price.
John Whiteman - Arete Promotions - US
Now days the music industry is very open and free, with signed and unsigned bands using the Internet. It has also made it a lot more competitive. With websites such as Myspace, unsigned bands have the same playing field as anyone else. So to get your business up and running , for record labels, band bookers, radio stations and most importantly the general public to take notice. I recommend CTW promotions . As promoting your own band takes hours out of your day, CTW will take those hours for you and give you amazing results with very fast efficiency. In one week our friends had grown five time more . Comments were being sent with positive feedback, and band managers, radio stations and promoters were sending us messages. If you fail to prepare then be prepared to fail. So don't hesitate to catch your dreams jump on board CTW promotions.
Free To Run – Blues Guitar Rock - Australia
I was in serious need of somebody professional to promote my Myspace page for me. I had been ripped off by people in the past, who would only do half the job they were payed to do. I hired Conquer The World to promote my page, and I am really glad I did. Mike came through, and did everything he was hired to do. My music reached many people across the world, and the feedback and opportunities that came my way were amazing. I would definitely recommend CTW if you want somebody professional and trustworthy to promote your page.
Timothy James Morrow - Pop Rock Guitarist
CTW does exactly what they say. I am very impressed with the amount of plays and friends I have accumulated in just the first week. I have signed up again for another week and will continue working with CTW for my myspace promotion. CTW is legit and is perfect for the
unsigned band looking for good promotion. Thanks Mike!
Robin Horlock - Pop Acoustic Singer/songwriter
I can't recommend CTW enough. In just a singular one week campaign we nearly doubled everything that had previously taken a year to acquire on our my space page. Targeted real friends and fans that we wouldn't have had access too before being an unsigned, underground band. I can honestly say it's some of the best money we've ever spent.

hi mike,
We are very happy with with what you have done so far, keep up the good work. I have already recommended you to one band who seemed keen to use your services, i will let a few more know at the end of the week so i can give them exact stats of what you have added friends/play wise. I have no doubt they will be not only impressed, but contacting you with job offers!
kind regards, have fun!
-Josh - The Happy Endings - Australia
Mike works hard to find your perfect fanbase match. What you get for your money are both instant results and lasting fans. I'll definitely be working with CTW again in the future, White noise Radio
Hey Mike,
I just wanted to let you know you're doing a great job man. I know its probably tough as I had neglected Myspace for over a year until recently, but you're a serious promoter. Lovin' it. Thanks for the great work you've done so far! Cheers, -Bobby Long
Mike, you did a great job, thank you. That might have been the best $125 we ever spent on our band! We are having a band rehearsal/meeting on tuesday and we need to find a way to use your services. You will hear from us, again. Brian "Super B" Smith.
CTW really helped get my new Myspace page off the ground, so I could quickly and efficiently reach my target market. In one week, CTW did what would have taken me many weeks. CTW is honest and professional, and I would definitely work with them again!" (Marcie for Myspace.com/behindthelyric)
WOW! Thanks Mike! You did a great job! I will definitely be using you again. I would love to catch up with last weeks requests first. I heard from a couple of radio stations so that's great!
thanks again,
Dolly
Mike,
Its been a pleasure working with you. I have worked with promotion professionals in radio and print media but this is the first time that I've ever walked away from a campaign satisfied. What I love about your targeted campaign is that is that its not like hiring somebody in an office somewhere to annoy other strangers on your behalf(most forms of promotion), CTW is more like having a friend spreading the word about what you do. Normally, I never would have given something like this a chance. My love of liberty and my natural curiosity led me to try your service during your Ron Paul donation special. I was surprised and elated that I had just stumbled into what is the most immediately effective tool in the music business. Mike- you're a class act and you can bet that I'll be back again,
~Lance
Hey...what
can i say. Mike did such a amazing job. At first i was skeptical but in
these four weeks he hit us in the MYSPACE ROCKABILLY/PSYCHOBILLY TOP TEN
Genre. We started with 1.000 friends, in four weeks we are now nearly
7.000. That`s brilliant! Mike, Thank you so much for your support. Johnny,
Built 4 Speed (This band is currently charting #1 in the country for their respective genre and doing a european tour)
ay dawg you
went above and beyond my expectations... worth every penny.
IF YOU LOOKING TO GET TO THE NEXT LEVEL HOLLA AT CTW..
my plays increased ten fold on a daily basis... my friends list tripled.
THE HYPE IS REAL
LETS CONQUER THE WORLD BABY!!!!
hi mike, on behalf of consumption i want to thank you for all the hard work you've put into the online promotion. we were amazed at the amount of exposure we've gotten. our plays doubled and our friends almost tripled. my advice to other bands seeking online promotion is to hire this guy while he's available. he's done a hell of a job with us and we'll definitely be using him again soon. thanks again, alex- consumption
Hey Mike!
You did a fantastic job. I am really excited about it and would recommend the service to anyone. I have seen an increase in messages/comments and interest about the book since your promotion began 1 week ago. - Tom Tancin Author of The Man On The Moon.
To whom it
may concern,
Mike at CTW is a kick ass mutha. Hailing from the home land of MC5 and
the Stooges, Mike is an awesome and trust-worthy envoy of music. My site
was a sad and lonely place until he came along. He literally increased
my profile by leaps and bounds from the first day I hired him. I, personally,
am a computer moron - I refer to it as the 'magic 0101' box. Mike took
control, and made connections that I never could have on my own. I trust
him implicitly, and recommend him to anyone, computer literate or not,
who wants to increase their profile and success.
In closing, I would have to say that anyone who works with Mike and CTW
is a lucky band.
Dead Eddie - Musician
PS. this is not an actor's portrayal, nor was I compensated for this endorsement.
Mike CTW really helped out with the promo of the page. He was cool. Think I had him promo for three weeks, we ended up with 400 to 500 plays a day and about 3000 friends added. He found the right crowd of people to spread the word - the people liked the tunes and told their friends....very important. it took off. Got v. busy w/ college radio, promoters, lots of interested punters - most people from the States >>> think your stuff would go over big there too. Especially Calif. BMNSTR Page is quiet now, waiting for new tunes - may hit up Mike again after revamping the page. So yeah, Mike helped find a load of excited people for B-MONSTER - you can have an amazing band, but its still gotta be promoted make it go places - and not just on the bastard road! - Bmonster - Band

When we first
hired Mike we had less than 1000 friends and now we´re almost up
to 8000, still increasing. I think he did a great job, we wanted to promote
ourselves on the swedish/scandinavian market and we got a lot of new friends.
I think we had at least one hour per day answering comments and mails
from people that liked the music. We also got in contact with record labels
and producers and tons of other bands so our network got a lot bigger.
I don´t know how much or if our digital sales increased and we did´t
sell that many cd´s, but that might be our own fault since we don´t
have distribution in Scandinavia yet, only from USA (www.cdbaby.com).
So that´s kind of hard to tell. But otherwise it was a lot of more
hits and friends for us. We got about 30-40 people a week that requests
friendship and Mike no longer work for us so I guess that is pretty good.
One hip-hoper/producer is working on a remix for one of our songs, he
found us thanks to mike.
We increased our plays, when Mike was working we had about 300-350 plays
per day which was a big difference from our usual 10-20. Now we got 150-200
per day I think.
Hope this was helpful, otherwise just let me know!

We have been working on some new platforms and we can now offer you even more detailed work and targeting than ever before.

We spider your entire Myspace friends list and pull and compile all the data into a database and provide you with an excel spreadsheet file of the complete detailed results.
To any person experienced with marketing you will understand that by using this information you can see exactly where your friends are, their ages, their sex, if they are bands, how many Myspace friends they have, and the last time they logged in etc.
This is a one time report that will be generated within a few days of the order and sent to you to keep. The next step is to consult back to decide what you want to do with that information to maximize your networking on Myspace
Pricing can vary as the bigger the list the more difficult it is to maintain.

musicians, etc etc.
We combine the best in marketing knowledge and technical expertise to raise myspace profile activity. You will get more friends, plays, views, comments, and certainly if the music is really good you will generate cd sales and digital sales of your music
We do not have a legal document outlining services. The promotional contract is bonded for as long as the payment period is that you have paid up to.
How to get the most out of promotions…
Myspace promotion is more than online work however getting numbers and targeted friends is a part of it and just doing myspace promotion is not going instantly achieve you results. To be effective like many of my long term clients you MUST combine the myspace promotional time with real world work on your end. Several of CTW’s clients have been able to get distribution deals, promote new records, book tours, get radio interviews and TV appearances and of course they are charting and gaining more friends/fans and using that high profile activity to get every single real world decision to be weighed in their favor.
Take a breathe and read the next paragraph multiple times so you understand what it means.
THAT MEANS.
ANYONE who is considering you for booking a show, writing an article, giving you airplay, or any other kinds of business that you are working on who gets in front of your page; YOU WILL GET THE DEAL, YOU WILL GET THE PRESS, YOU WILL GET THE SHOW, YOU WILL GET THE INTERVIEW, YOU WILL IMPRESS ANYONE.
I thought maybe this would have been common sense for most artists and people but I don’t see people utilizing the promotional time they purchased effectively as they could be sometimes.
Use and maximize your promotional time effectively.
YOU
will see GUARANTEED RESULTS!

References.
Start by doing a google for "conquer the world records" WITH the quotes to see several of the projects, records, press accomplishments, CDS, Audio Books etc that have been released under CTW since 1991. You could also message most of the artists in my top lists, Novada, Built 4 Speed, The Duel, FFRK.com, , Consumption, Sunday Sound, B Monster, Free Element, Dead Eddie, Sean Madigan Hoen, The Holy Fire, Swimming With Sharks, Kaptain Nemo, Blue Jar, Love Dictator, etc.
Besides being an indie record label selling 70,000 copies of records and cds for 15 years we have also made a lot of marketing headlines.
Number 1 on the national myspace music chart November of 2005.
One of the earliest instances of promoting to podcasts as an alternative format to commercial radio.
Released the first "podcast novel" as a commercial paid for product on iTunes in entire world.
Signed a 13 time author to an indie audio book deal.
Why use CTW over other companies?
On top of the above resume and accomplishments being the fact that we
actually work in the diy indie music business, we also actually care about
our clients. We are fans of music we just are not here to take your money.
Honestly there are other people and companies out there doing like minded
things we are doing charging DOUBLE, TRIPLE and MORE for similliar services.
Lastly and most importantly CTW is not run by some
15 year old kid who truthfully has no concept of marketing techniques
that work or how to do business. This could apply to someone specifically
but sadly it applies to most people that are "myspace promoters"
or myspace related companies.
If you have any questions or want to chat about a campaign of any kind just get in touch.

The Message
St.Petersburg, Florida
I used Conquer The World Promotions a few times as a trial and it worked brilliantly! I was expanding my network through Myspace at exponential rates. My orders were met quickly and correctly. I was warned that other companies either wouldn't fulfill their promise or didn’t know what they were doing and were just after my money. Curious to see the difference, I tried other companies and within a few weeks I received a letter from Myspace Help informing me that my account had violated their spam and music abuse policies and that my account was going to be deleted! I will never make that mistake again, CTW is the way to go! Thanks Mike - Mindchanger
The recent campaign you did for us was fantastic. We got in excess of 1,000 new japanese friends who were all valid and targeted music fans or bands and this from only a one week campaign. I can't stress enough how helpful this was and would recommend your service to all independent labels and bands as a very cost effective way to increase your profile and promote your music.
HELLO MIKE,
JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT YOUR SERVICES ARE GREAT! I JUST STARTED USING YOU AND WOW, CAN SEE A BIG DIFFERENCE IN THE BUDDIES WHO HAVE BEEN REQUESTING ME! YOU'RE VERY PROFESSIONAL, FAST AND VERY REASONABLE! I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU TO ANYONE! YOU'RE THE BEST! BEST WISHES, JOHN PAUL"

If you are looking on this site and thinking of taking
on Mike to do your promo- well we did and he is the "MAN"- I
guess we were sceptics too but, he delivers -nearly a thousand plays a
day and hundreds of adds for the dailly price of a pack of smokes/ think
about it -you have a band and want some interest- boost your plays- do
you want to sit at the pc all day chasing people to listen to your stuff
- how much is that worth? if you are thinking about a ctw deal - do it,
it does what it says on the ads!!! cheers mike - Jezus in Heavens

I
definitely would recommend artists to work with you! I will be workin'
with you some more in the near future. I think it's a great way for artists
