Thanks for the answers but it doesn't really address the question. Writing a good song is great, but I know several incredible song writers who are in the same boat as me. They struggle to get the songs to the right people for it to really get any further.

well, if there was a magic formula, everyone would be a sucessful songwriter! Talent alone doesn't mean all that much... no one is going to "discover" you! You need to go out and get it! (what does that mean? .. well, when i figure that out, i'll get back to you!
)
This is a buisness filled with broken dreams and empty promises!
+1 to RedVelvet's comment "..
at some point, in my opinion it's just luck.."
However..
There's a few books/publications i would recommend you read:
"Songwriters' Market" (annual book, get the newest one)
"American Songwriter Magazine"
"Billboard"
"Music Connection"
~Good Luck!
