subject: Beat Selling Online [print this page] Skepticism can be found throughout all ranks of the producer community when it comes to beat selling and making money as a beat maker. Most people who want to become a music producer end up completely missing the fact that the internet is a great venue for your beats to pull in a great full time income.
I've seen success using multiple forms of marketing including SEO marketing, viral marketing and article marketing which have all helped me raise my profits when trying to sell my beats. Proper advertising is all about finding one method that works and then thinking of creative ways to magnify that exposure, doubling and tripling it as you go.
A lot of that information is pretty advanced and I don't think it's where any producer should start. The very first place I always tell beat makers to dive into is Soundclick. If you get a high ranking in the Soundclick charts as a producer, you will become a mini-legend in the pretty large community of SC. Go ahead and Google "beats" sometime and you'll find that Soundclick is the first mass community website to come up in the listings. They have a huge section for rappers so your target audience is sitting there waiting for you.
I like Soundclick the best for the following reasons:
1. Rising in the charts on Soundclick is more valuable promotion-wise than any other charts online... If you get to the top 10 on Soundclick, your site is seeing 20,000-100,000 plays PER day which translates into beat selling.
2. The promotions that I pay for are crazy because for their price they get you RIGHT up there in the top 20 (note that I pay for super secret promos that most people don't know about, I mention them in the eBooks) but about 50% of the types of promo they offer are completely useless. I've literally spent $1,000's on Soundclick (easily) and I have tried every type of promo imaginable.
3. Soundclick is the perfect example of viral marketing. You can fly up in the charts completely because you've made yourself look like a legend on the charts. Believe me when I say that SC is the biggest chance for shine any producer can ask for online.
This is a challenge for all my readers: go out today and try selling your music! If you think you can license your beats off to rappers because you've got quality music, then it's time to start.
