Early Findings
A short description of revenue streams and the average earnings for them are presented on the attached
spreadsheet
.
On-Demand streaming platforms such as Spotify splits the
revenue
between the different people and organizations involved in the process. This direct revenue increases for independent artists who do not split the
earnings
with a label.
Commissions are another option of
income
for pop singers. In this case, the song is specifically created for the client. The
minimum
pay for this type of work is estimated at $500.
Synchronization
can be a great source of income, considering it comprises 6.6% of the market share in the music industry.
Earnings
can vary widely depending on the artist, the project, and the song.
