Small budget, small problem... no budget, big problem

So a lot of you have been asking what it is that we do for our artists within our company, and I want to share that with you because for those of you that don't have a healthy budget, there's a lot of stuff that you can do for yourselves. So when your money is coming through Spotify or Apple Music or Tidal or Amazon Music, we also make sure that you're set up at your performance royalty organizations. That's like ASCAP and BMI. They collect the money that is streaming live, for example. Then there's also SoundExchange. SoundExchange collects the money from like internet radio. There's a bunch of different companies that can do that for you. Internally, we use Songtrust. They seem to be the best out here at collecting money for independent artists. The goal in the music industry is to monetize your music. That's the goal of marketing and promotion.
