I actually make more money from streaming. But that’s because I have a large UA-cam channel that can funnel free traffic to Spotify and Apple Music without paying for anything. I would advice to build your social media presence so you can leverage your platform for free to your other sites.
It's also because of the type of content you make as well. I can understand why you would say this. However for others across my audience making content like yours is not something that would fit for every body. Great job on the channel and amazing job on monetizing your music, sheet music , and tutorials on the website!
@@MusicMoneyMakeover I respectfully disagree. I have made regular "popular" music including hip hop with other channels in the past. You underestimate the power of social media influence my friend. Ive been making music for 14 years. Yes, instrumental piano music is universal...but like I said before, even niche genres (as long as your audience is large enough) you can push numbers anywhere WITHOUT paying for ads. You need a core amount of "super fans" that will click and download anything you ask. If out of 100k, you only have 10k super fans....then that's 10k streams almost every song regardless of genre and it only builds up from there....you can make direct sales to those people and they will buy. I have expert knowledge of this because like I said, been doing this for over 14 years. Now how do you get that amount? Be unique. don't copy what every rapper or singer is doing. Create a trend. Stand out. Collaborate.
I do this type of music but post elsewhere. Try doing a UA-cam channel like this from scratch this day and age.. yeah good luck. complete waste of time and energy as I worked on one for 4 years without hardly any traction and ultimately decided it wasn't worth my time and effort any longer. Looks like you got in the game super early in 2011. Now just a bunch of pathetic saps using royalty free videos and music have completely saturated it for absolutely everyone 😡
Can you help me with some sync site to use or agent, I have tried many but not working for me, I don’t know may be is because of my location or may be I have something’s to correct , but just can’t figure it out yet 😢
Hi Casey, I have a bizarre question- Can you Please make a video about this (or tell me, lol): How does an New Independent Songwriter know how our first Song will really sound on Apple & Spotify, after its uploaded? If we're making a first song in a DAW Program on our computer, how in God's green earth do we know how it'll actually sound on streaming platforms ?🤔🧐.. Thank You and I'm so glad I found your Channel!!🔥 Your knowledge is a god-sent, thank you!🔥
@MusicMoneyMakeover Oh my goodness THANK YOU So Much!! I'm already nervous about making my first song I'm making all by myself on a Daw, and I don't want to be horrified if it sounds bad after it's online. Thank you so much Casey! (I'm not a professional musician at all, but I taught myself Daw & how play a little bit of keyboard , so I'm making the best of what I have. Thank you)

Glad I could be of assistance.
Genius, MMM💎

There are plugins for this. Ozone's mastering plugin allows you to hear it that way.

Want to start off by saying that jacket is 🔥 always appreciate your videos

Straight up facts 🫡
Straight up!
Where do you find sync agents?
Use google and Chat GPT!
very edifying
Thank you.
Do you have a video on D2U for dummies what steps to take for beginners let me know thanks Peace!
D2C is a beast of a challenge if you don't understand marketing. I'll put one in the queue, may make a course out of it.
The most commonsense approach to making music that I have heard, coming from an MBA.
Wow! That's pretty dope man. Thanks.

Thanks
The biggest secret of the music industry is that music exists to degrade and destroy public morality 😅
