It's Time to Get Paid For Your Music
What if you could tap into an automatic system that licensed your music for YouTube, TV, Radio, podcasts and Netflix? What if you could earn extra money on the side - FROM YOUR MUSIC, all from the comfort of your home studio... and in just 30 minutes a day?
Imagine if someone told you:
- exactly which websites to sell your songs on
- exactly which songs to write
- exactly how to produce songs that sell
- exactly how to "search engine optimize" your songs to make sure they got found
- exactly how to make sure you get paid for all those songs on your hard drive?
Music Licensing Will Invigorate Your Life!
I've earned thousands of dollars from licensing. My income potential grows every month. And while I still have to go to an office (for now), I've got a bounce in my step that wasn't there before.
With music licensing, your friends will actually think of you as a musician, not just some weirdo with way too many guitars (as if)!
Now, only you know your true potential and whether you're living up to it. Only you know what beautiful tracks a bouncy around your head. But if you follow the course and work consistently at making songs, then you will start to see success.
I'm going to share my secret with you: If you focus on the right things (uploading to the right sites, writing the right kinds of songs, using the right production methods, and developing a good strategy for tagging your songs with keywords) for just three hours a week, you will begin to make it happen.
With a system, it's that simple.
The Journey Towards Making Money In Music
I wasted a lot of time, effort, and money figuring out how to get people to hear my music. I spent months researching how to get into the music industry. I read books, scoured the internet, and I spent thousands on courses.
And I flailed around for years, until I finally stuck on a foolproof strategy to get my songs out there.
An optimism filled the void.
I started to get my music used by an award-wining filmmaker. I began to get my songs on TV and the radio. On Netflix, even!
And I started to get paid for it.
So after a couple years of consistent success, all my musician friends started asking how I was getting paid to write songs (while working full time at my day job).
They wanted to know what my secret was (we'll get to it in a little bit). So I recorded some videos for them, and, over time, these videos evolved into the Stock Music Alliance.
Since then, my music licensing career has been featured in Forbes and on podcasts like the Side Hustle School, Side Hustle Nation, and Emmy Award-winning Elisabeth Leamy's Easy Money Podcast, and Sync My Music.

What They Don't Want You to Know in a Changing Music Industry
Everyone tells you that the music industry is "dead." That you have to play live shows to earn money.
But what if you don't have a band? What if you don't like playing live? What if you've got a job or family that prevents you from touring?
How do you make money from your music these days?
Here's the thing: if you have no strategy, if you just put songs up on Spotify or Soundcloud, if you upload to this or that, you'll never see a dime. If you send your unsolicited recordings to publishing companies, you'll never hear back. There's 100,000s of musicians releasing music all the time!
How are you going to stand out? How are you going to let music pay your bills?

"I'd rate this course a 10! It was a great intro course to the basics. It explains where to go and what to do. I liked the walkthrough of different aspects of the website and uploading. Also, response time to questions was amazingly fast and I really appreciated that!!We love to make music so here is a way we can get it out there and potentially make some money! A low pressure and free way of promoting our own creativity and while it doesn't mean we get rich overnight, it is also a no-risk fun way of exploring what other musical things we can do. All it takes is recording all the noodling that we already do, and persistence in producing these recordings."
