5 Reasons Why Nobody is Buying Your Music
,----[ Quote ]
| Donât be discouraged if nobody is buying your music. If your music is genuinely
| good then you just need to update your business model. The business of selling
| music has changed. Music sales may be down but music consumption has never been
| higher. The demand for music is bigger than ever. People WANT your music. There
| is no one strategy I can give you, what works for on artist probably wonât work
| for another, but hopefully the points above have given you something to think
| about.
