How to make KASHINN!!($$$(MONEY)) (Online Distribution Services)

This is my personal opinion of online music distributors . If you are in a band or a solo artist of ANY genre you will find this article usefull!! let us know!

So you have a band and you are trying to get your name out there BUT you have NO IDEA of how the hell to put your songs on itunes, amazon, itunes japan and get your worldwide distribution going on! Well we just found an answer to your question! TUNECORE(http://www.tunecore.com/). Basically TUNEcore is one of the most reliable digital distributors of online music around the world, altho its pretty new, many artists find it really profitable. Tunecore will only charge you a one time fee that is 99 Cents per song and then a flat fee for the whole album! so lets say, for example, you want to put out there your 5 song EP you just recorded in your bathroom or with the best producer out there you just need to pay 99 cents per song (that is for those who never took Math 101 haha .99 +.99+.99+.99+.99= $4.95(I just had to do that on the calculator hahah)) and then pay the flat fee of 19.98 , you will end up paying a total of 28.89 with no hidden fees!!. Yeah sorry I forgot to mention that in that price you are getting distribution to Amazon.com, Itunes, Itunes Japan(you really wants this!! do you know how many people live in Japan?) and Nokia! so you can also sell ringtones!!.

There are other online distribution services such as CdBaby.com or SOngCastmusic.com that are really good for this distribution services but usually they will take profit out of your profit.

In my experience I find TUNEcore easier to use and manage, and its better to put all at once and then get more that to sell and then have some companies take out a percentage of what you win!

So i guess thats all for Online Distribution Services!!!!

Much Love,

T-Shirts 4 SALE

MERCHANDISE

Making T-Shirts to earn Money $$$

In My opinion is one of the most fun stuff you can do to earn money as a band, making T-shirts(I've been dreaming about this since we started the band). But if you think they will sell by themself...they wont. Its very probable that if you order 100 tshirts there will be a lot of them stuck with you until the end of times...or maybe until your mom needs some cloth to donate to the local church, or wipe the dirt from the front door, or stuff like that.

Find the right Timing

--------------------------------------------------------

You have to choose the right time and the right amount of T-shirts...I would say, per gig, because people get bored of the same disgn, and if you always perform in the same spots, is always the same people... and they already have the one you sold them on the last gig.

How To Begin

Maybe you can start buying some 8.5" x 11" transfer paper, and print your bands name or logo. or some design you've made, and iron it...and sell it by request, there's not a big earning, but its a secure way to earn something and promote your band. You can also throw them at the end of your show, to earn new followers.

This is my opinion, if you have something to share with us, maybe your own experience, we would be happy to hear it.

Thanks,
