Sell beats online without the need for a recording contract and make serious money as a hip hop beat maker today. It's not impossible and if you play your cards right, you will be successful.
Would you be surprised if I said that you could sell beats and double,
maybe triple your monthly income without needing to leave your house? What if I said that the amount of hours you'd need to put into your beat selling shop would be significantly less than that of a 9-5 job? You can even do it on the weekend.
Truthfully, selling beats online is becoming more and more of a sweeping phenomenon which is changing the music industry forever because we no longer have a use for record labels and contracts that steal our souls.
We're living in the digital age and it takes a smart mind to understand and embrace that fact. When I say digital age, I am of course referring to the fact that with websites like YouTube, MySpace and Twitter, artists around the world are having a much easier time getting exposure without the need for a recording contract.
Another wonderful fact is that with websites such as Soundclick, RocBattle and MyBeatShop, the industry is changing dramatically for beat makers also. You used to need a record label if you wanted to get your beats sold, but now the playing board has changed completely.
Soundclick's charts are very well known for being the "only light for underground producers" because rising in those charts potentially means thousands of dollars every month added onto your income. The charts are the perfect model for the viral effect because if you rise, you rise quickly and almost at ease.
It's not unheard of to get 10,000 plays a day using Soundclick to promote, and in fact I myself have managed to get over 80,000 plays in one day when I'm in the top 10. This may seem impossible but believe me, it's not by any means.
The first thing you have to do is admit to yourself that for once the hype is real, and that if you use Soundclick correctly you can increase your monthly income, which of course helps pay your bills.
The second thing you should do is set up a Soundclick account and start working hard to promote it. I know that the promotion aspect can be difficult to understand, after all how do you claim 10,000 plays per day in the first place?
The biggest thing you need to know about Soundclick is that it's not necessarily about how many people you drive to your site... It's about how high you get in those charts. You just need to send enough people to make yourself jump up in the charts because the real exposure comes directly from them. Being in the top 50 in Beats/General means you're getting 4,000-5,000 plays daily without work.
If you are sick of hearing a bunch of wack information and you're in need of really getting rich quick off Soundclick and MySpace then you need to visit SellBeatsNow.com immediately and purchase the "Get Rich Selling Beats" eBooks. Every factor from beginning to end will be explained to you.
