I believe what she means by personalization is a personal recommendation - ie: coming from an agent or a respected colleague of the record exec. Unsolicited tapes from unknown artists usually get "filed" (put in the trash can). Still the best thing you can do is just sing - anytime and everytime you can.
Good Luck, Jessica
