Monetize Your Music

Lately, I've been focusing on how to promote my music and reach/build an audience and on making sure that I'm collecting all the royalties that belong to me.

However, I notice that a lot of musicians (including myself) know very little about it, the information is sparse and confusing, there is no checklist about where to register, what's needed to be claimed and so on.

So I thought it might be helpful for all musicians to gather, share information and experiences and learn from each other.

The purpose of this community (as of now) is to post about the following:

1) Music royalties collection

Research
Which company collects which royalties
How to register, collect
Anything else related to royalties

2) Music promotion (not here, intended as how to)

Research

Testing, experiences

What works and what doesn't

What tools, companies or methods and how to use them

Anything else related to music promotion

Well, I guess you got the point :) Anyone who can give or get value from here is more than welcome!

Dear fellow musicians,

Today, I'd like to share with you one of my favourite Bandcamp's alternatives!
It is called Mirlo (@mirlo@musician.social) and, from their website:

Mirlo provides a user-friendly space to help musicians sell music, manage subscriptions, and share with their supporters.
Directly support musicians. Buy their music. Collectively owned and managed.

This is not a promotion tool, however, it features a couple of "discovery" ways that people can find your music and, needless to say, it's a place where to monetize it.

The current pricing is the following: "Mirlo uses a transparent and consistent pricing model. We charge you 7% of your sale, and our payment processor (Stripe) takes a roughly 3% cut."

You can find all the features here.

They are launching a Kickstarter campaign soon, I haven't checked the details yet (if any), but keep an eye on that if you're interested on what they are coming up with! 😀
