You should first bounce it.

Nice 5 word answer there, lepetitmartien. Perhaps a bit more elaboration on the topic might help this sincere person out? C'mon and share some of that vast knowledge you hold between your ears on this!

Let's see...this is from memory. In iTunes preferences/advanced export file type.

The process in GB is to bounce to iTunes, with the correct settings in iTunes you can create a mp3.

open itunes preferences>advanced. make sure both importing and burning options are set to mp3.close pref. click on advanced>convert selection to mp3.
done.

Thanks for all the help you guys. I've been wanting to know about this myself.
Thanks again.

To convert and send a GarageBand Mp3 song.

Here’s the way I did it. There must me a shorter way!
Click: File > Save As > name the file > save it to GarageBand > Save >
If dialog box says you’re file already exists, click Replace.
Click: File > Export to iTunes > iTunes appears with your file in it.
Right-click the file > Convert selection to Mp3 >
Another copy appears in iTunes and music may start. Stop the music.
Quit iTunes > Quit GarageBand >

Click: Go > Home > Music > iTunes folder > iTunes Music folder >
Click; “your name” folder > “your name” album > see an .aif and an mp3 file. >

Drag the mp3 file to the desktop > open an email, address it >
Drag and drop the mp3 file onto the email > Send > Done!

I hope it works for you
