How to sell a song of your own composition
Today I’m starting a small but very informative series of articles on how to sell a song to our artists. This question is sooner or later raised by any person who writes songs “to the table”. And since almost no one has the opportunity to self-actualize on stage, as a rule, all newcomers write songs just for themselves. However, the desire to sell the song to “the star” is not something completely shameful. You must try. The main thing in this business is to have a lot of patience.
As you know, before you sell the song, you need to create it. Today, when there are more opportunities, writing a song is not such an impossible task.

Many of them are delirious with music and in the end, not having received the proper results at these competitions, they go to parallel activities – writing music for popular performers. Thus, 2 rabbits are killed immediately. The first – earnings, the
When the understanding came (and more often this indefatigable desire to just engage in any business) is to sit down for work. To sell the song, you need to work hard on it. This is a rather complex process, which we will study in more detail in other articles. This includes many nuances, which at first glance may seem delusional, but eventually you will get a clear understanding of “what” and “how.” People call it “experience”. He will help you sell the song! The main thing is to believe in yourself. Without faith, all attempts are empty.
