3 Powerful Ways To Sell More Music

One of the issues that new artists are having is selling their music. And we say that the only reason why an artist can’t seem to sell any music is because he/she simply doesn’t know how to.

There is a method to making money within the music industry, and if you are not familiar with them you simply won’t make any music sales.

For up and coming artists there may be a few road blocks, but once you over come them things will become a bit easier for you. In one of our recent articles entitled “5 Reasons Why You Are Not making money As An Artist.”

We outlined the different opportunities that artist fail to take that prevent them from making loads of money from their artistry. In this featured post I will outline three major keys to selling more music on Itunes as well as the other popular Websites To Sell Your Music On.

Create Unique And Quality Music

I have already mentioned this several times to artists before. It’s important to make unique and quality music so your music can have such an effect on people to the point they will buy your music and merchandise.

Fans are looking for an experience through your music. If your music is mediocre why would the purchase it?

Of course you will say well look at so and so, his music sucks but he still has fans. Yes, but for how long though? One or two albums and they’re no were to be found.

If you want longevity and millions of album sales you have to create good music! Invest in good recording equipment, or a good studio that can record and mix your songs well.

Promoting Yourself Well

In the music industry it’s all about visibility. Who is making the most noise on the scene and generating a big enough buzz to be talked about.

The only way to generate buzz is to promote yourself well online and offline through a variety of music mediums. The key here is visibility.

If you are not having a response form anyone,  or no one knows about your music, then chances are you are not promoting your music well enough for it to be heard.

Always monitor your progress. How many blogs have you been featured on this week? How many radio play did you get?

How many interviews did you get? Monitoring your progress allows you to know if you need to be going harder. It also allows you to anaylize which mediums gives you the most response from fans, and which ones do not. Ditch whatever doesn’t work and keep what does.

The final key to selling more music is to go out and network. One of our most popular articles was 4 Reasons Why Artists Should Attend Music Seminars.

It detailed the importance of going out to music conferences, seminars, and events to meet those within the music industry that can get you on the radio, tv, or music blogs.

Your success is dependent on these individuals or companies to place you on platforms where hip hop fans frequently visit or tune into.

Again, the more visibility you have, the more fans you will potentially create. The more fans you have, the more music you can potentially sell. It’s that simple. nothing too complicated.
