😭😭😭I just want to share my bad experience with Aliexpress and why you must not use Aliexpress. I’m a drop shipper since 2019. I have so many problems with Aliexpress. Too often, sellers send the wrong items, give me bad tracking information, send very low-quality products, or never ship my items at all. My favorite AliExpress moment was spending $10 for US shipping on 25 different orders for a seller who claimed to have a warehouse in the US, only to have my orders shipped from China in 6 weeks. AliExpress cannot be trusted! So, I switched to Zendrop. Since then, I haven’t received any customer complaints relating to missing or damaged packages. Each order arrives on time within 5 to 7 business days with the express USA shipping option. If you’re dropshipping using Shopify, you no longer need the Oberlo app to import products from AliExpress into your store. Zendrop is the top alternative to AliExpress, and here are a few more reasons: SIMPLE - Everything you need is located on the Zendrop dashboard, and using their one-click technology allows all tasks to be done in an instant EASY IMPORT - Only reliable suppliers with high-quality products and fast shipping times make it to the Zendrop dashboard. The platform makes it easy to browse through product categories using different filters to find products you sell with a button click. You can learn more about using their tools for product research from this previous post. REAL-TIME ANALYTICS - Zendrop syncs with your Shopify store, allowing you to see essential data like revenue, product costs, advertising budget, and more straight on the dashboard Besides, it’s free.

Thank you so much for this video! I'm a web designer and I currently creating an e-commerce site for a producer. I attempted to build it manually through Wix but it just wasn't giving me what I needed. The client decided to go with Shopify and I was not sure where to start. This video came right on time! 🙌
Just wanted to mention that anyone using a P.O.S that doesn’t use a UPC will miss out on those sales counting towards credible metrics for things like Billboard* positions, album awards like gold or platinum records etc. It’s cool if that stuff doesn’t matter to you, but if it does then try and do your homework on what you’re going for before choosing any platforms to upload your music to. Cheers! 🤘🏼😎🖖🏼
Man , that is information ...! To have an alternative to all these streaming stuff is great , if someone likes your stuff he`ll just buy it ... thanks from Germany !
If they support and love you enough. It’s true. Look at Kanye. DONDA 2 will only be available on his own stem player. No streaming. It’s nuts. But he made 2 million dollars worth of sales from just the first 24 hours
I'm definitely going to look into this. Currently thinking about getting back in the beat leasing business, I have some decisions to make. It seems like a no brainer.....
Been looking for an in-depth video like this forever! Freaking inspired now bro!! Thanks! :D This video was so much higher quality than all the other crap I've been looking through around this topic :O Keep it up dude, great work! More like this, please! Do you have a link for the example store you are reviewing at 15:15? Would have been nice to have a template store to work from :)
I managed to get to the page via looking at the link in the video, just had to turn on higher resolution XD Nice looking page! Love it! Man, can't wait to get going with this! Thanks again, dude!
Great video man! My question is about the player, so do people just down load the files and listen through their phone player or does tuneboom, have a player once they purchase the album ?
This was great the only thing is tuneboom has a limit at their highest tier on how many beats you have? There’s gotta be an alternative. 150 beat cap is not that much I have way more that i would want to post on the website 😭😖
Best videos I’ve seen yet for building my Shopify! Thank you!! Question: is there a way to stream audio on your Shopify and set up payment as a subscription service? For example, yeah you can buy individual tracks via mp3 or have full access to my album as a bundle when you subscribe for $6 a month?
Ive always had the thought of dealing with multiple artists having the same beat since its so available like that online. Does that happen to you and if it does how do you deal with it?
That’s their problem. The thing about leasing is this is the entire reason a lease license exists. So you can sell the beat over and over again. They should know what their rights are as a lease holder whether that’s by written contract or agreement on the product page. When I lease my beats I say promotional use only. So anything that doesn’t earn them income. If I were to discover any artist using the beat on social and making money from ads or on Spotify or streaming services I would issue a cease and desist or have some sort of content ID claim system do it for me. So people don’t rip you off. And then if they discover other artists use the same beat as them for their own songs that’s just a part of leasing. They should know that going into the lease. Until someone buys the exclusive contract, it can be leased until you decide not to do that.
Sorry, I did not understand what you meant by splits. Also, when you said licenses, are you talking about setting prices for songs so customers can play it for establishments like bars and restaurants, or for other musicians to perform them? And how do you determine prices for these licenses?
Fantastic vid! Thank you! How does this fare with mobile downloads- I keep running into music being downloaded into the Files on my iPhone versus into my music app.
Thanks you so much for the info ur the lengend make more videos brother it helps young generation like us to come in main music platform respect all the way from india peace out brother✌️
Thanks for this info. This will be a game changer for some of my clients. I do have a question. Is there a way to setup the splits for artist collaborating on a track.
Great info/tutorial........these days with virtually everyone streaming it's interesting to see if people still are even interested in buying downloads..........I appreciate your knowledge....
REAL diehard supporters will buy. But also know you have to make it exclusive to your site at least for a limited time BEFORE your music gets put on streaming for them to feel really inclined to buy.
hey man hru? if i do want to try it out but i have no community of other musicians that want to actually support me and buy my music will it still worth it? like do they have an option to promote the website you made for small amount of $? thanks!
You don’t need a community of other musicians. You just need people who like your music, period. Lol. It doesn’t matter what their career is. Investing into yourself is always worth it.
I was told by the developers that certain Shopify templates are optimized better for the app. They are working to fix it to be more universal, I remember the one I selected actually was not compatible so I reached out and was told they would make it so that it works across the board. I’d assume they’re still working on it as they find issues, but for now I’d say try a different template.
I don’t believe there was a limit on the higher tier pro plan when I made this video. I was surprised by that myself when someone else said the same thing.
Could you make a video on how to zip your cover art and mp3 together? When I go through the process like the customer and it appears in my email there is no cover art only the song.
Appreciate this content………I have 1 question. I get the difference between say selling on Beatstars verses Shopify but would be beneficial to do both or just one?
If you find it to be beneficial for you, by all means go for it. I considered it for a second but preferred to focus 100% of my attention on my site first and foremost. And if in the future I decided to upload elsewhere, I would. Which now I am considering, but with Timbaland’s Beat Club.
Shopify doesn’t serve anyone. It’s just a website hosting platform with apps to make whatever kind of site you want. The only person serving buyers is you. If you want people for media purposes, you have to bring them. If you want people who will listen just for casual listening pleasure, you have to bring them.
Hello, my name is Lee Mar. I have been waiting for something like this sale for my twin brother and me, Jazz CD online, our Jazz CD is already written by "The Library of Congress. We have a finished product waiting to get situated and uploaded to sell. I will be looking into Tuneboon, thanks and have a blessed weekend my friend.
Great video, great tool. My band will be touring this summer and we want to sell our album digitally. Does anyone know if there is a way to link a qr code to my toonboom?
I'm using the free version of Tuneboom but when I downloaded the song to the store its in the store to purchase but there is no preview button to play the song? What theme are you using? And after loading the song the link doesn't take me anywhere it just says it went to the clip board and where is the clip board? Where should the link take you?
Yes I do. lxgends.com/products/music-consultation?_pos=1&_sid=52c77577d&_ss=r Page still needs to be customized but I can still be booked in the meantime.
@@IAMLXGEND i get that part but for exampl, royalty free music libraries like pond 5 and audio jungle wont accept instrumentals/music thats already registered in the content id system. which makes sense bc if your beat is registered with content id and they use it on their video the earnings go to you. So how do we work around that?
@@OttomanBeats I don’t know what that has anything to do with selling your own music on your own site. You don’t have to work around anything. Put your own music on your own site and sell it. There’s nothing to work around. Audio jungle or whatever other royalty free website has no attachment to what you upload on your own personal website. They are 2 entirely different things and are not connected in any way.
Shopify only pays one account. You’d have to manually split that from what I’ve known in the many years I’ve used them. Tuneboom I don’t think offers a way around this either.
@@IAMLXGEND I am looking at a record label application that will have multiple individual artists' site pages. Each artist will have their own catalogue of recordings. So the Shopify site itself might have thousands of download transactions per day. Which platform is handling the transaction volume, Shopify or TuneBoom?
I’m a good rapper I have talent But I’m scared I’m always hidding from the world I can do it Not hard I just never have time to write it out Sing it Posted it I’m so busy Trying save money Make side money
That is entirely up to you. You’ll need to either put that on the product page in writing or include it in the download file yourself. As far as a preview, I’ve already explained that in detail in the video. Please watch it again.
@@IAMLXGEND Thanks for the reply! Ok I ment a preview of the actual license. Not what is supposed to be included in the license. I installed tuneboom and tried it. But it doesn't generate an actual license like for example beatstars does. So I would have to create all the different licenses myself based on what i setup in tuneboom and then add the customer information, name of the beat and all the other info, and then send it to the customer after they have bought it. Thought it was an automated process. A lot of the stuff they offer you can do with variants etc. Would love that feature though! Maybe some app that can create a license pdf dynamically after checkout based on a variant or something. You cant have it all :) Keep up the good work and thanks again!
This was a gem! I did not want to join a beat selling website, I wanted full ownership. Bro!!! Real talk, thank you.
How is it going?? Any tips bro??
