Frequently Asked Questions
Where should producers sell beats?
Wherever artists in your genre already shop — a dedicated beat storefront plus links from every platform. The specific store matters less than one consistent, obvious link and a fast, professional buying experience.
How do producers get placements?
Consistent proof of sound plus actual outreach. Post your best work, tag and credit every collaboration, and send beats to artists who fit them — personally, not in blasts. Placements compound when your credits are visible and searchable.
