These are some gems you've dropped! I would also add that engaging with the clients you already have is key! If you improve your relationship with your customers, they will keep buying your beats. Not only that, they will want personalized, exclusives, and even mixing and mastering services. That's what has been working for me!
I think another perk of the bulk deals is getting more of your beats into the customers hands because not every song they make will be their favorite. Having them get more gives them more of a chance to make a song they like on your beat and then continue to come back or maybe even pay for a custom beat in the future/exclusive sale. Just a natural push into a good business model for your channel and you as a producer
5:22 guysss please don’t underestimate your product, you are amazing and the person who’s gonna buy from you knows they can’t make that beat better than you.
Hey! Just dropped to say thank you! I just started my beats journey and I feel like I need to get some decent promotion knowledge. Yours seems to be accurate! Have a perfect day
By "beats" I'm meaning an instrumental song. Not sure if you figured it out in the video, but basically I (& a lot of others!) create instrumental songs and license them online. The best example I have of how it all works is visiting my website omitobeats.net. Rappers & Singers purchase licenses to these instrumental songs to use in their own songs, like recording lyrics over.
Gday Omito, Have been really enjoying your content and have learnt alot from it. 👍 I have a question about beatstars, is it mainly for rappers or can producers also sell pop and rock beats on there aswell?
I think any genres can work on BeatStars as long as it's intended that an Artist would rap/sing over it. I've uploaded a lot of different genres outside of rap/hip-hop that have done well. I also think that different genres have less competition so there are more opportunities there too
Thanks for the reply and information mate, I really appreciate it alot. Been listening to some of your beats on Beatstars and am really enjoying it.@@omitobeats2
i make a tons of different styles and I'm stuck i want to post what ever i want but every producer always say niche down and stick to 1 artist what should i do im almost at 1k tried everything and 78.2% of my watch time is not subscribed
Your stats sound a lot like mine 😅 I'm really diverse as a producer and I've always just uploaded whatever genres I've felt like making, but recently if I have one beat that gets more sales or better reaction I try to "recreate" that beat basically - like make a new one in a similar vibe. I had a beat that went kind of viral 1.5 years ago and I've made a handful of ones similar to it that have gotten good results too. I think that that's kind of been helping me niche down and I see the value with it.
Awesome video keep up the good work bro, How do you upload your beat video to instagram and it sound so clear with no background noise? What do you use?
Hey bro, this is some dope content, really useful advice. I do gotta say though, you repeat yourself waaay too much. I know how the algorithm works and like you said "I'm not tryna hate on your hustle" but this could've easily been a 5 minute video instead.
Nah, there is really no need to masterize your beats, just mix them properly. BeatStars gives you the option of upload a wav untagged version for download and a tagged mp3 or wav version for streaming in this file is where you should put like a limiter and make it really pump, this is the version that the artist actually listen in the site, but in your download file you should leave headroom for the artist voice
I've sold mine starting at $30 ever since I started selling beats 10+ years ago. I've seen a lot of producers have success from leases starting at $20 or $25 for a basic lease, and $50-$100 for a higher tied lease, then up to $150-$200 for an unlimited lease. I don't think there's a real right or wrong answer. I'd say try creating a few different tiers of leases and tweak them as you start to get more sales.
I haven't done much with BeatStars promo, but what I have done I haven't been very successful with! I've probably only spent around $30-$50 there but it never led to any sales. Maybe if you keep at it you'll have results, but I personally haven't had sales come from it.
I don't really reach out to anyone to make sales, a lot of customers find my beats online and message me or visit my site themselves to buy beats. And this comes from a lot of uploads on RUclips, a lot of content posted on my Instagram account, and a lot of beats online. Once you build up a large enough catalog I think it'd be easier for Artists/customers to find your beats on their own.
@@omitobeats2 thanks very much for the update, its kinda hard hehe I have lots of beats on my store but driving the traffic its just not happening hahah. But am just gonna continue with the hard work
IMPORTANT QUESTION ⁉️. If I made a random beat from fruity loops with a tag that I just made up and sell it, am I safe from future things such as a person making my best popular and not tagging me in it? Also if I sell it without my tag, am I still ok? Like my tag is something I made up and I never like had it copyrighted or anything. Do I need to get my tag copyrighted in order to sell beats without getting scammed in the future?
Hey bro, dope content and thanks for the good insight... I just saw you upload your beats to Spotify, which beats do you tend to upload? Ones for sale or different ones?
For the most part I think you can. When someone buys a beat from me through BeatStars/PayPal I can see some info about them, like their name/contact info. I find that if a company is buying a beat it usually comes up with the company name or website in the PayPal transaction. Of course, there might be some people who buy the beat personally for their company. I'd love to hear some other people's input if they see this comment. Also... not sure if it's just me, but I don't really matter too much if it's a company or an individual. I've had many times where people buy my beats and I don't hear from them after that.
Not at all 😄 Check out this video I posted a video months back. I made a realistic sounding beat without playing any instruments live: ruclips.net/video/1PRlnCH6vh8/видео.html
@@omitobeats2 Thanks, just a few questions i just turned 15 today and i am totally beginner at beat making, what do you think how long does it takes to create a first great beat? And also is 15 too old to start? I mean i just start learning my first instrument.I love your beats😺(sorry for my English)
I have another couple of channels i tried selling beats on it never really worked for me any beats sales i got was throught manually having to hit people up mainly or instagram never youtube. it become a grind i become bored of very fast. Posting daily on youtube and spending shit loads on ads was all a waste of time getting 20% ctr 60% view durations even ranking high on youtube and never seeing any real results. Then i discoverd putting my beats on spotify now 6 months later my spotify is earning me 4k a months from streams. what the hell do i need to see beats for or post on youtube?
@@keithbeal2617 if he makes lo-fi i think spotify puts together a lot of lof-fi beat playlists with sorta no name producers, those playlists rack up plays
I make my reels with Premiere Pro! I always found that my iPhone's mic wasn't picking up the quality enough, so I export the FL Studio audio and merge the clips together in Premiere Pro before posting to Reels.
Most of this is just common sense advice 🙄 "If a beat sells well make more like that" You need to give more useful advice mate. Also you keep repeating yourself. You got to showcase a couple of your beats and that's about it. I think people are more interested in strategy

Great video man, really informational
Thanks bro! Means a lot coming from you! 🙏✨
My boy Jaeyar just got a few from you. Keep up the good work my man.

Another question is, what would be the best budget to spend on when it comes to promotions
I think a good budget for any platform is around $5/day. If you're getting good results slowly increase the price until you find that sweet spot.
@@omitobeats2 aaaah facts thanks very much

Great video, man. Thank you.
I would love to see a `how to` video on how you make beats whether it would be free or premium
Hey bro, this is some dope content, really useful advice. I do gotta say though, you repeat yourself waaay too much. I know how the algorithm works and like you said "I'm not tryna hate on your hustle" but this could've easily been a 5 minute video instead.
Do a producers beats/instrumentals need to be mastered before uploading to a selling site?
Nah, there is really no need to masterize your beats, just mix them properly.
BeatStars gives you the option of upload a wav untagged version for download and a tagged mp3 or wav version for streaming in this file is where you should put like a limiter and make it really pump, this is the version that the artist actually listen in the site, but in your download file you should leave headroom for the artist voice
The beats you sell on platforms besides BeatStars do you send out your own lease contracts still?
What is a good starting price when selling at the beginning of your business?
Awesome! Thanks!!! :-)
Whats a good price tag for beats bro.?
I've sold mine starting at $30 ever since I started selling beats 10+ years ago. I've seen a lot of producers have success from leases starting at $20 or $25 for a basic lease, and $50-$100 for a higher tied lease, then up to $150-$200 for an unlimited lease.
I don't think there's a real right or wrong answer. I'd say try creating a few different tiers of leases and tweak them as you start to get more sales.
But 1 question did most of your selfs come from Beatstars promotions
To tell like this beat is liked a lot ?
I haven't done much with BeatStars promo, but what I have done I haven't been very successful with! I've probably only spent around $30-$50 there but it never led to any sales. Maybe if you keep at it you'll have results, but I personally haven't had sales come from it.
@@omitobeats2 ooooh thank you though broo
Then what was it then you get sales from
Or is it only reaching out to people
I don't really reach out to anyone to make sales, a lot of customers find my beats online and message me or visit my site themselves to buy beats. And this comes from a lot of uploads on RUclips, a lot of content posted on my Instagram account, and a lot of beats online.

@@omitobeats2 thanks very much for the update, its kinda hard hehe I have lots of beats on my store but driving the traffic its just not happening hahah. But am just gonna continue with the hard work
This is just what i need
what about pricing
so question does the music community only do trap beats and is this the only genre in the world that sells music?
IMPORTANT QUESTION ⁉️. If I made a random beat from fruity loops with a tag that I just made up and sell it, am I safe from future things such as a person making my best popular and not tagging me in it? Also if I sell it without my tag, am I still ok? Like my tag is something I made up and I never like had it copyrighted or anything. Do I need to get my tag copyrighted in order to sell beats without getting scammed in the future?
i just don't know how to break thru the algorithm , i've been uploading daily and my views still are cheeks :/
Yeah I feel you on the whole buy 1 get 10 free thing at that point your just giving beats away wouldn't recommend that at all
23k in 6 months so it means 3,8k monthly avg. Is it enough for you to live in US ?? i have never been there so i wonder
Hey bro, dope content and thanks for the good insight... I just saw you upload your beats to Spotify, which beats do you tend to upload? Ones for sale or different ones?
I tend to upload both. Just to get people listening to the music.
