My Motivation is Dying Fast!

As someone who is also experiencing a massive - almost lethal - drop in sales, I totally sympathize. And curiously, the more I upload lately, the less I end up selling.

So while I can offer absolutely no advice as to how to increase your sales, there are a few things you can try to get the juices flowing on the creativity side. Even though these suggestions might seem simultaneously similar and contradictory, they sometimes - not always - work for me.

  1. Get out of your comfort zone. Try producing a track or tracks in a style in which you're not particularly proficient...or even familiar.

  2. Then do the opposite: Produce and upload some tracks in whatever style you personally most enjoy, even if they have a slim chance of significant sales. You could be surprised.

  3. Similar to #2: Try to remember whatever it was you enjoyed about music production BEFORE you discovered Audiojungle. Tap into THAT energy. Very few of us, I believe, ever "aspired" to to cranking out Online Royalty Free Stock Music (especially since the market segment hasn't even been around for much more than a decade or so.)

  4. Crank out 4 or 5 tracks in a week. Don't sweat the details. Just start it, finish it, and upload. Give yourself a time limit. Worst case scenario, it gets rejected. Again, you may be surprised. My best seller took far less time than most of my tracks, and coincidentally came from a period of "speed production."

Hope some of this helps...Good luck! :slight_smile:
