HOW TO SELL BEATS (Thread)

1.) you needa set up your beat store to collect emails in exchange for free downloads. NOT optional. This is IMPORTANT. The most likely person to buy a beat from you is one who has gone through the trouble of testing some out. You NEED their info.
2. offer high-quality mp3s for nonprofit in exchange for their email.

THEN, email them free mp3 leases.

Yes, you read that correctly. These are your ARTISTS now, you need to pour value into them before they give you ANYTHING. You are their producer now, you needa act like it
3. then you need to offer your effort to help them release and promote anything you make for them (on lease ofc, but this includes the free one you will be giving them). be their label. that's basically what producers are (or should be anyways)
4. ONLY AFTER this, can you ask someone to buy beats from you, and actually expect them to even consider it.

What this process does is focus ur efforts and attention on a "niche" you'll carve out by converting "cold traffic" into "hot traffic" via method explain in this thread
5. you wanna focus your SELLING attention on artists you've turned into "hot traffic"

you wanna focus all other attention on GETTING LEADS. these leads will enter your "label" and you will convert them into hot traffic

hot traffic buys beats, I have daily receipts to prove it!
6. u find leads in cold traffic sources. think of these ❄ sources as the market where you set up your shop (beat store) to sell the fruits (beats) you grow on your farm (DAW). You have to give out free samples in the marketplace (Unless you have the best fruit @MetroBoomin)
7. ppl will test your fruit one day, but they may not buy it that same day. but after many free samples, they may realize that like your fruit. If u notice this, give them a whole apple to take home. tell them how to wash it and tell them the best foods to eat it with.
8. Then, maybe... JUST MAYBE. the next time they are looking for apples... they'll remember you. Try to think about why that may be.
9. Cold traffic sources include, but are not limited to:

- Instagram
- twitter
- blogs
- direct DM'ing artists
- YOUTUBE
- @BeatStars
- @traktrain
10. Display your beats (fruits) beautifully and expertly so that you can attract and hook as much of this cold traffic as possible.
