While living in Nashville, I was educated on how things REALLY work there. A contract with Paramount is money in the trash. If you approach a label with their product, or mention their name, you will be dismissed. Almost any chance of getting a placement in Nashville is done through a co write with a writer of greater stature than yourself. It is estimated there are a total of 300 possible placements a year for unknown or lesser known writers. Put your money into using name players that can get your song some listens, or to get a co write with a name player or writer. Even if you had to pay, you will get lots more mileage from that than you will from anything having to do with Paramount. They are truly one of the worst. They've never read a lyric they didn't love...
