Here's how to download the data:
Step 1 - Do you know which files you need and how to use them?
If not, click here to download our set of instructions which explains the files in greater detail. You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader installed on your computer in order to open the instructions. If you don't already have it, you can get it for free at Adobe's site.
When in doubt, download the “Ascii/Text” (also known as “comma delimited ASCII” files) because almost any word processor or database software can import them (Word, Excel, Act, Goldmine, etc).
Step 2 - Are you clear on the two types of files we'll be giving you?
Regardless of the format(s) you decide to download, you’ll be getting two files from us. The first, contains ALL the contacts in our guide (about 600 names). The second, contains only the “Best Overall Contact” for each show (about 230 names).
In general, you don't want to approach more than one person at a given show. Otherwise, you can have a very angry producer on your hands if they find out their colleagues have already heard from you. Therefore, we generally suggest you use only the 'Best' database.
|
Step 3 - Download the files You can download all the files listed below in one .zip file. If using Internet Explorer, choose “Save Target As..” and download the files to your desktop. If using Netscape, choose “Save Link As…” A new window will appear, giving you the option to save the files in a location of your preference. We suggest saving the files on your desktop. In the “Save in” box, selected Desktop and then click Save. |
