"Hello! On behalf of Expert Village, my name is Barry Bergman and today I am going to give you tips on how to get a record deal. Yes, it is a fact that in most cases of the entertainment industry is an industry of youth but when it comes to an adult or somebody who wants to make it in this business even if they are in their 40's or older, my suggestion is don't give up. If you can release a record independently, put it out there and create a real buzz and people resignate to it, these companies will come running after you. I don't care how old you are. It's all about sells. If they feel they've got something they can sell, they don't care if you are 40 years old. They may not want to sign a 40 year old but they are very excited about selling product. After all, we are still in a day and age where they introduced Tony Bennett to the MTV audience and we shouldn't forget the fact that here's a guy that sells to everybody. "
