I make music for 12+ years, i mostly earn from streams revenue(its very little), i know music production and sound design from start to end, i considered freelance work but i know its a hit or miss because of oversaturated market. I want to hear your guys ideas how i can monetize this skill !
 
Create customized songs for people. I've already seen some successful stores advertising on Facebook Ads, they create custom songs for people using AI, if you have the knowledge and skills to create custom songs, you can create this kind of ''song on demand'' ecommerce website, people buy to offer as a gift to their loved ones.
 
As Spicy said , create customized songs for people, i would create customized songs for famous streamers for free, i would upload them on TikTok , YouTube shorts until they go viral , i would just pump out content, do not try to reinvent the wheel see what is viral on any platform and replicate it with your own twist and have a sales page ready with my offer and would drive traffic from the videos to the page, so many ideas in my head right now but you get the point !
 
Teach beginners on YouTube or Patreon, people love seeing behind-the-scenes of real producers.
 
I’ve noticed people just create something and put it out there. Maybe if you start sharing your work consistently, you can build content around it and eventually, that exposure can lead to monetization.
 
Build your own course about teaching your skills and post it on Udemy.
Lots of people yield great results on this platform.
 
Going from 0 to 1 is the hardest step, and I'm in the same situation. I spent a long time studying SEO techniques, including black hat and cybersecurity. Of course, I'm not a top professional in the field, but I do possess these skills, and I've used them to make a lot of money through SEO. Okay, I'm rambling again, so I won't go into that. All I have to say is, brother, keep going, and believe in yourself.

You should pitch to.music companies. If you are able to sign even few companies and do good work, you can grow fast from there. It also depends on luck but the possible reward is very good.

Do you have a regular job other than this ? It is not necessary that everyone has to depend on online income only.
