(Someone asked me how they could sell more of their instrumental music. My answer:)
For instrumental music, it sells best if you tie it into a purpose.
Massage music sells very well.
Yoga music sells very well.
Instrumental Christmas music sells very well.
… all because they’re selling more than just harmony, melody, arrangements : they’re selling something that non-music people find useful. They solve a problem.
Different example:
Imagine two candlemakers.
One says, “My candles have only the finest wax with the best quality wick!”
The other says, “These are prayer candles. Light one whenever you pray.”
There are dozens of people who will buy the first.
But there are millions who will buy the second.
