Making money by bulk dumping music.

I used to get into it too. as far as I know, there are platforms where producers can upload their music for sale. but they usually sell music for commercials there. as for the beats, I think we should look for little-known performers and start collaborating with them. as soon as you get a portfolio, you can write to already well-known performers
 
thought about making a record label with different artists (all me:)) and just dump whatever i make that day, but i dont know where i should focus on, youtube tiktok spotify, should i get distrokid?
For me making music is something I enjoy spending my lazy days at home doing... so I am currently a similar route, Independant "Record Label" with a website and a few distribution contracts with artists for singles... the money from streaming isn't great at all... but oddly enough I have a feeling ill be instagram/snapchat famous and somehow make money with that before I make any real money from music.. For some reason all the campaigns ive done have resulted in more retention ( like followers, comments , fans (not of the music because the stats are wayyyy backwords in comparsion.. possibly because its a paid ad for music and you look up in coming??) this time we live in truly is a trip.
I've had decent success with doing instagram ad campaigns through facebook manager that way you can have a more specific niche audience. Which in the kinda odd sub genre of music I deal with is is very easy to target the correct people. In the last year ive had 3million streams on soundcloud, and 5 million impressions through instagram/snapchat combined ( I spend around $10-20 a day on ad compaigns which I didnt like the idea of at first because I wasnt even making any money from music but hey i would just tell myself its like me buying another 6 pack but instead im going to invest a little bit into the possibility of something to come out of it but now it pays for it self .. (Back to splurging on designer clothes and designer habits :anyway:)Each one of the platforms you mentioned has its pros and cons and I guess it kind of depends on your personality and style to see which would suite you best.. anyway hope you go to the moon with it . people are pretty weird on here about sharing their profiles and stuff but if you wanna brainstorm something DM me im always down to learn something new or maybe even teach someone something LOL thats hard to believe. Social media is powerful and with the right group of collaboration its pretty powerful... Thats how i got my first couple of contracts signed were just people with maybe 10-20k followers on instagram

I would suggest to focus on quality and not quantity. Make music that will connect with an audience five them good visual and cover arts and stay consistent to build yourself as producer. You can still drop every 2 weeks a quality project and get your numbers up. Try to build a real audience that enjoy your music and follow your journey. For example you can focus on making a 5 track mixtape every two weeks and focus on the quality.
