introduction
It’s not easy to make a full-time living from music these days. Most producers end up relying on multiple revenue streams to make this happen. It’s usually (a combination of):
Selling beats to artists
Offering production, mixing or mastering services
Selling drum kits or sample packs to producers
Ten years ago, you were considered one of the early adopters of a shifting business model for music producers. These days, that business model has become the standard.
👉 Today's standard: If you wanna make money as a music producer, you set up an online store, build your personal brand, and monetize your audience or following.
As a result, it has become a numbers game. 🔢 You focus your efforts on getting more traffic to your website, plays on Spotify, followers on social media, and subscribers on YouTube.
Sounds easy when you put it like that. And frankly, it is. But it does require a certain skill set, mindset, and character to be able to pull yourself through the struggles.
How do you deal with the inconsistent income (if you make any income at all) in your first years?
How do you make time for all the (self-)marketing and promotion that is required to see success these days?
How do you navigate your way to success, knowing you have to compete with thousands (perhaps; millions?) of other producers?
How do you justify your late night studio sessions to make better music when you realize it’s useless without a proper marketing strategy?
Maybe, you're just not built for this?
- Maybe you’re just not the type to make 2 beats a day and upload them on 5 different platforms…
- You may not feel comfortable getting your face out there only for people to start hearing and appreciating your music…
- You might know your way around a DAW but you’re just not tech-savvy enough to deal with marketing funnels, website SEO strategies or sales tools...
- Maybe you just can’t shake off the constant thought of having to do everything EXCEPT making music…

What our students say about the Notion Sync Center
What’s up, my name is Nathan (a.k.a. XcaliberZero). In the past years, I’ve made 6-figures from getting my music on TV shows, commercials and other visual media.
I was able to turn my music catalog into a profitable money-generating passive revenue stream through placements in shows like Rythm & Flow, Fortnite, Netflix, and hundreds of networks across the globe.
Today, not a day goes by that my music isn’t played on TV.
Nathan Foreman
Head of Sync Licensing
What I learned from helping the first 64 producers land their first sync placement
In 2021, I stepped into mentoring producers in sync licensing, as I noticed many were intrigued but, at the same time — clueless and insecure about navigating this industry.
There was fear of rejection, despite people's remarkable talent.
Worried about competition, even though sync is less saturated than other music monetization avenues.
Uncertainty around the complexity of payments and legal rights.
Determined, I aimed to guide over 100 producers to land their first TV. Within several months, I was at 64.
One producer I helped landed 10 placements with my support, which showed me the impact of providing proper guidance in this field.
This experience, combined with my own successes once again illuminated the vast potential in sync licensing — reminiscent of the early 2010s beat-selling surge.
Anticipating this significant shift, I decided to partner with HEATE and create Zero To Sync to arm producers with the necessary tools for landing TV placements succesfully.
And with this — secure an additional passive revenue stream for their music.
