Hi Joe, I really appreciate your complete transparency. There's so much value in your words. I'm interested in Fiverr as a music producer. Do you think it's better to route potential clients from any platform to Fiverr? There's a 20% commission there, so I'm not sure about this move. What do you think?

[@danceretreat]

What do you think about Udio and Suno AI in relation of selling beats in future?

[@IRBY_BEATS]

Cheers for the knowlege dude👊

[@dragondrew]

awesome vid bro

[@serhiibudiak]

How much time is it takes for you to make one beat?

[@aigoated]

1 hour for me, so for them probably 30 minutes or less

[@serhiibudiak]

@@aigoated omg, it takes me 4-5 hours)

[@hambonetunes1988]

Firstly, yeah, not going to lie, I want to make some money with my music =)!
I would like to do this as a side hustle, I am very much just starting out; I have about 1 hour a day for music production; how hard/realistic is it to reach a point where I am making say 100-500 USD each month?

[@producedbyblake]

I make type beats and spend about an hour or two a day. I probably make about $150-300 a month. I haven’t really been super consistent with it either. Type beats can work but don’t expect it to be a money printer at the beginning. My beats aren’t really industry quality but I still sell them so it is possible if your beats aren’t industry quality. But they should definitely be good enough that it should move the artist to want to record. There are a ton of videos out there that teach how to make type beats

​@@producedbyblake Your beats aren't industry quality? Saw your channel and I'd say they are
