Play gigs.
Another thing you can do is a mass mailing to various radio show hosts but understand ahead of time, they get a ton of unsolicited cds and only listen to a fraction of them.
The music business is not what it was and there's little money to be made selling cds anymore unless you're very well known and loved by the multitudes.
New artists have emerged through social media sites so you might put some songs on YouTube and cross your fingers.
In my opinion, however, the biggest factor is getting noticed is luck. There are many ...and I mean MANY... incredibly talented musicians who work their keisters off and never make it. No luck. The right person didn't see them, or hear them, or happen to be in the car with someone who put on their cd, or whatever the reason.
