62. Derek Sivers Helps You on How to Help Your Fans!

Welcome to Musicians Tip Jar where we talk about musicians and money. Today we get the gift of diving into the mind of CDBaby founder, Derek Sivers.
Episode mission/Overview:The best way to understand how this business works is to think about it all from your fans perspective. That is sort of our theme today. But there is SO much in that concept from how that helps you help them and how to allow your fans to help you. So sit back and let us help you!

“Money is just a representation of value, so be valuable. people like to pay” -Derek Sivers

What a great time we had talking with Derek. He is as kind as he is articulate. We explore his ideas from his latest book, “Your Music and People” as well as how musicians are often missing some of the biggest opportunities their fans can give; their talents and time. Derek Sivers first made his name commonplace with the creation of CDbaby but since selling the business in 2008 for 22 million he has continued to help the music community with his invaluable insights through writing and speaking. We hope you get as much out of this interview as we did!

** We know how valuable your time is, we appreciate you for spending this time with us and being a part of this community. It is our hope that you feel that sense of community here at musicians Tip Jar and help us spread the word to make us stronger together.
