You’ll only earn money from streams if you are the songwriter and own the publishing rights. If you are noted as a performer only then forget it

@freakuensea Год назад

Gigs are actually still the highest source of income for bands especially, although we do agree that that should not be the only source of income, there should be things like merchandising (which can also be sold at gigs btw), royalties (trying to get your songs on web series, movies, short films, radio etc.), website subscription (this one's a maybe because you'll need to make more content for this), brand collaborations and finally, streaming & video views revenue.

Plus you gain an audience. Also you are perfecting your sound. Style. Music. Lyrics. You'll never know if you're really good without live gigs

Do cover gigs guys. I’ve been a cover singer for the past 10 years in Australia I make about 2K a week, 1k on a slow week. Some weeks I’ve made 3k+ Weddings and privates will pay crazy amounts. It’s been an awesome ride and a fun way to live your 20’s. Now I’m getting older and wondering what my next move in life will be, I’m looking to be home more, so perhaps creating recording streaming could be my next chapter. Good luck to my fellow musos

Except your not playing your own music.... Which is what some musicians wants to do most of all

More Gigs is not the answer but getting the right gigs that pay and the mentality to get those gigs is what most musicians don't have. If you enjoy music and income isnt the driving force then a few pub or small club gigs is fine nothing wrong with that. But if you want to earn a living a good standard six figure plus then you need to apply business principles and gigs can be the answer. Not though if the ones offering gigs are looking for the cheapest you need to get out of that market and value yourself. As Terence says doing lots of cheap gigs is not the answer. But what if you commanded a high fee doing the top end? its an unsaturated market but you have to have more than a good sound you need to find those where money is not the issue its where they want the best. You need to have the business skills to get the 10k plus for a gig if you think that fee is not achievable then your right (for you) but it is with the right approach. Great vid Terence and nice sound to your voice. 💙💛

@tartancomposer-pw1pe 7 месяцев назад

Great advice T, however, having a social media platform DOES NOT guarantee "engagement!" I started a tiktok account which was having lots of views and followers...but NO ENGAGEMENT!!! I had put up loads of videos about composing music and other pics/short 'fly-on-the-wall video vignettes and photos and in that time not ONE person took time to comment or ask questions about my content???? So...the viewing side of social media seemed to work, but the actual 'social' interaction between me and my followers was a non-event and I was left feeling frustrated and all my time and efforts being a were a non starter!

@itsmaistro 4 месяца назад

Exactly. I was doing production for s while before going back to being a live musician and even now it's still hard to get any engagement on my content. These algorithms completely screw you on any potential clientele

How do you do the virtual performances?

@fumarfuego 3 месяца назад

I do think it's pretty cool that everybody is trying to move musicians as entrepreneurs into more business mindset... The problem that all influencers seem to leave out is that quite honestly as an entrepreneur music is just a bad business. Inherently high risk... inherently low probability of return... Once you're looking for multiple streams of income, you figure out that music is a bad place to invest... A savings account would be better for your business 😂

Terence what do you think of selling NFTs? Or essentially selling shares of your singles as NFTs? This seems like it may be a good way to crowdfund for beginner-professionals.

@aryepack Год назад

i sell my music as NFT but you have to treat it as a business still

@hddrummer8838 2 месяца назад

Being a pro musician after 2000s is a heavy cross to carry. If i could go back in time I would definitely choose another career path.

Well……not to be too negative but these 5 points aren’t so easy. 1- doesnt work for cover musicians who need to get paid every time they go out. 2-merch is cool but none of us are selling thousands or even hundreds of tees. We sold a few dozen and barely made a dime. 3-lessons are cool but that is a full time job. Most successful lesson platforms add tons of new material weekly. 4-ok. 5-a lot of that work is locked down, and you’ll need real gear (thousands of dollars) to send work of any quality.
