3 Income Sources for Music Producers

Music Producers Suck At Business!

In 2017, I predicted that the amount of wannabe Music Producers in the world would increase tenfold before mid-2018!

Well, I regret to inform you that I was right.

Today I want to point out something that’s already quite obvious to you all.

You don’t need a record deal or to be noticed by a top-level A&R guy to make a living from your music.

That’s the last time I’ll say it.

I want you to bookmark this article and read it as if it’s the music producers version of the Bible, here is where I will break down 3 Income Sources for Music Producers that you can take advantage of as quickly as tonight and start seeing a steady stream of income from in as little as a month if you truly get your head down and focus on executing what I’m about to tell you!

This probably won’t be what you think, so try to think out the box and be open-minded.

Audio Jungle is lesser known to Music Producers than other platforms similar to it, Like Beatstars and Airbit, Audio Jungle is a place to sell your music, but unlike the others, this is a place you’ll want to be registered at if you fancy taking a dig at getting your music and sound effects used in movies, short films, youtube videos and so on.

But beware! Only consider using Audio Jungle if you’re ok with selling your music royalty-free.

Beat leasing platforms are of course known by all, and the advantage of beat leasing is that you as the creator can still hold onto the rights of your music no matter how many times your beats lease, but of course this depends on what level of lease you sell, if you’re selling exclusives, that means you’re giving up the rights to a particular beat for a negotiated fee.

Selling Music and Sound Effects on Audio Jungle is similar to leasing a beat, All-though if someone buys your music and uses it in the next The Fast and the Furious movie don’t expect a royalty check to come through your door anytime soon.
