The episode elucidates the stark reality that music creators receive a mere 2.99% of the revenue generated from streaming platforms, such as Spotify, in Canada, a figure that significantly undermines their financial viability. This percentage, dictated by the Copyright Board of Canada, is distributed by SOCAN among songwriters, composers, and producers, further exacerbating the challenges faced by artists reliant on these meager payouts. The discussion highlights the systemic issues within the music industry, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic, which has intensified the financial struggles of creators. We delve into the complexities of music licensing and the calculations that determine royalties, revealing that the average payout per stream is approximately 0.0084, an amount that barely qualifies as compensation. This conversation serves as a crucial reminder of the importance of transparency and advocacy for fair compensation in the ever-evolving landscape of music distribution.Takeaways: The current license fee paid by music services platforms in Canada is set at 2.99%. SOCAN distributes the 2.99% license fee among songwriters, composers, and producers on Spotify. The Copyright Board of Canada plays a significant role in determining the set rates for royalties. Artists receive approximately 0.0084 per spin on Spotify, which is significantly less than one cent. The disparity in revenue between creators and platforms like Spotify is a matter of grave concern. To maximize exposure, artists should disseminate their music across all available platforms simultaneously. Companies mentioned in this episode: SOCAN Spotify CBC Radio Nielsen

Matt Vander Boegh has gone from Zero-to-Hero in the world of Music Licensing. Here's a snippet of his bio from his website: “In his 14 years of making music for TV, Vander Boegh has amassed a staggering 30,000+ placements on over 1,000 TV programs, including various major sporting events, Hollywood movies, high-profile reality TV shows, soap operas, commercials, and daytime & evening talk shows. He has nearly 5,000 cues and hundreds of full-length songs signed to oodles of high-end music libraries.” To say that Matt has figured out what sync's “secret sauce” is would be an understatement. On his popular Youtube channel, he often credits TAXI as the launching pad for his success. Even though he's an unabashed “TAXI fan boy,” he's agreed to join us for this week's TAXI TV, where he will ask our CEO Michael Laskow the tough questions that others may have but have never asked him directly to his face. Get tips, techniques, and answers to questions that most CEOs would run away from!

So one of the things that fascinates so much that I take time to keep doing videos…is the numbers. I like to share this whole big experiment which is: How much did I make in a given period from different things I kinda broke that down a few weeks ago. But I'm also interested in how others made music income in 2024. So today's podcast will be about two things: How are people just like YOU making music income, and how did you make it in 2024? And Part Deux, I want to give you my best advice on which of these things you probably SHOULD be doing more of, and which ones you might want to GIVE UP on depending on who you are. #musiclicensing #musicincome #musician HOW MUCH I MADE IN 2024: https://youtube.com/live/cZ4Y884rj2Q Get FREE stuff at https://makemusicincome.com/free GET THE 2025 MUSIC LIBRARY DIRECTORY!

If you'd like to jump into doing music for film, TV, and Commercials, you might be wondering, “How do I start, or where do I start?” Both are great questions, and I've got the perfect person to help you figure it out! Matt Vander Boegh is an unlikely TAXI All-Star whose music is played all over the world on a daily basis. But, like many of you reading this, Matt's foray into earning income with his music didn't come without some fits and starts. Mostly fits ;-) Be patient as you watch this because we spent a chunk of time, in the beginning, talking about Matt's childhood and his progression into sync music licensing. After that, we get into the “red meat” section, and trust me when I tell you, there are tons of gems in this episode! TONS!!!

There has been a lot of hullaboo about the changes in the way Pond5, Motion Array, and Identifyy are paying the people who license their music through these places. As I was contemplating a sync licensing deal this week, I started comparing all licensing deals to each other. Sync deals, stock music library deals, other sites that offer you a split of some kind for your music. But as I was comparing licensing deals, I noticed that almost NO publishing deal or licensing deal is all that great.

Are you living in possibility or probability? In this Habits and Hustle episode, I am joined by Cathy Heller as she shares her incredible journey from struggling artist to successful entrepreneur and author. Her story is a testament to the power of living in possibility rather than probability. We dive into her new book Abundant Ever After and discuss the importance of taking action, being resourceful, and embracing an optimistic mindset to achieve one's goals. We also discuss the stigma around women and wealth, encouraging listeners to unapologetically declare their desire for financial abundance while using it to make a positive impact. Cathy Heller is a renowned teacher, podcaster and author. She hosts one of the top spiritual podcasts, Abundant Ever After, which has been downloaded more than 45 million times. She's a practitioner of the law of reception, and has a deep understanding of the universal principles of manifestation. Check out her new book Abundant Ever After.  What We Discuss: (01:07) Friendship and Support in Success (05:01) Exploring Jewish Manifestation and Energy (11:20) Changing Energy Through Mindful Awareness (19:31) From Record Deal to Music Licensing (31:02) Breaking Free From Past Trauma (36:54) Optimism, Wealth, and Transformative Courses (45:03) Female Entrepreneurship and Authenticity (57:42) Balance Between Spirituality and Action …and more!

So I got an email that asked some telling questions. They mainly had to do with a reluctance with exclusivity in music licensing, but this subject is broader and applies to all for music makers, songwriters, composers, producers, etc. Why are you SO precious with your music? We want to hold on to our music so tightly and make sure it doesn't get “stolen”, or stays non-exclusive because we stay in control of every little thing. So today, we talk about “How to STOP being so precious with the 3 or 9 or 25 songs you've managed to scrap together and MOVE ON to more songs!” #musiclicensing #synclicensing #producers Pod Music "Get Up and Go" Eric Copeland, featuring Stevie B.

Over the past two months I've been going through something of a renaissance in my musical and professional life. I suddenly and without seemingly any care, walked away from a teaching job I had been doing on the side for two and half years. The job brought security and insurance, and fulfilled a decade long desire to add teaching as an income stream. But it was also, unfortunately, a bit if a trap, and other than refocusing me to where I am now…I think it might have been a complete waste of my time. In fact, I think I've been wasting time for decades. So today, I want to talk about how to know if you're wasting time on things that are taking away from the music life you've always wanted.
