Midi Money

In this episode of the Midi Money Podcast together with grammy-nominated producer Ill Factor we revealed the most important advice every music producer needs to hear in order to succeed in the music business. If you're trying to "make it" in music, this is the episode you want to hear!

You're looking to get connected with big artists like Drake, Kanye, Beyoncé and want to be around influential people, right?

Well you've GOT to stop using the words "me" and "I" and start using the strategy that my friend Keef Keyz told me about when he's hitting up people he wants to work with.

Passion & Empathy. These are your two Music Industry words of the day and that's because I believe that they're the two characteristics that made my latest podcast guest so successful in this business.

YouTube is one of the most popular platforms that music producers and entrepreneurs like you and I regularly hang out on, which is why Jay Cactus grew his music production channel to over 100k subs in under 2 years and made a ton of 💰doing so.

I had him on my podcast to talk about some of the things he's been doing to build a sustainable income online as a music producer, and I was shocked to hear that all of his growth happened pretty much organically. Check out this episode to hear how he was able to achieve his success!

"Leading with value..."

You ever hear that quote before?

It seems to be one of the sayings you hear ALL of the time in the music industry, especially if you're trying to get in the right rooms with influential people...

In this episode, we reveal what does "lead with value" means and how you can use it to your advantage.

After seeing what influencers like Gary Vee and Omari MC have done with all this new technology (NFT, crypto, web3), I had to chat with !llmind to see how music producers in my community can level up with all of this! Make sure you're tapped into all of it because it most definitely is the future of the music industry and I want you to be hearing about all of it FIRST before everyone else.

"Everyone needs an engineer"

That's exactly what William Bowser of Quality Touch Studios said to me when we last spoke, and the more I think about it, the more I agree with him!

Here's why...

In this episode we discussed how SMS marketing saved our $179k beat pack launch, the difference between email and sms, how you can use it to sell more beats and why every beat selling producer should incorporate SMS marketing into their beat selling strategy.

NFT's, Bitcoin, Crypto... All this stuff can be super confusing, especially when you're diving in for the first time. And to be honest, I'm still reallyyyy new to all of this stuff, so I hit up my friend Omari MC to help explain a few things to me. We talked about a bunch of stuff in the crypto space, but one thing I've been very curious about recently is this new concept called Creator Coins. Have you ever heard of them?

Many music producers who advertise their beats and other products online tend to have a hard time connecting with their audiences, and many times it's because of the messaging and language they're using. It may not look like a big deal but it's honestly a game changer. It's so effective that it's helped my buddy Bruce Beats make 6 figures in just a few months teaching music theory online to music producers. Check out this episode to learn how you can apply it to yourself!
