Could your last gig still be making you money?


PROFITABLE MUSICIAN WEEKLY NEWSLETTER

November 11, 2026

Hey there, Profitable Musician!

At the end of a gig, it’s easy to count the money you made that day. There’s your performance fee, plus whatever you sold at the merch table.

There’s also an opportunity that can keep paying you long after you’ve packed up.

The people who heard you and liked what they heard but didn't buy anything..

Picture someone who really enjoyed your set but didn’t buy anything. They weren’t ready, or they simply didn’t make it over to your table.

They do join your email list, though, because you’ve given them a reason to want to hear from you again and you've strategically planned a way to get them to do it instead of just hoping they will...

🛠️A Place For Your Fans To Gather


🎧Spicy Discussion About How NOT To Pitch

Over the next few months, they get to know you through your emails. You share a story behind a song, and they reply because it reminds them of something in their own life.

When you release your next album, they buy it. Later, they bring a friend to a show. They might even buy your music as a gift or introduce you to someone who books performances.

That first gig opened the door. Staying in touch gave the relationshipa chance to deepen over time without feeling rushed or forced.

An email signup isn’t a guaranteed sale. You still need to give people reasons to keep reading and opportunities to support your music.

But when you have permission to email them, you can tell them what’s happening. You’re giving someone who already likes your music a chance to buy or attend when the timing is right for them.

That’s why getting more of the right people onto your email list can make your music business more profitable. You’re building on the work you’ve already done to reach them.

And this applies beyond gigs, too. Any time new people hear about your music, there’s a chance to begin a connection that lasts longer than that first introduction.

This Friday, November 13, I’m teaching a workshop to help you create more of those opportunities:

13 Ways To Attract & Retain New Fans Without Relying On Social Media

I’ll walk you through fresh ways to reach potential fans and give them a compelling reason to join your list. You’ll get the steps for putting each approach into action, including ways to make more of things you’re already doing.

Can’t make it live? You’ll receive the replay link so you can watch afterward. You can also revisit it whenever you’re ready to try another idea.

Start with one approach. See what works, then add another when you’re ready. You’ll have the rest in your back pocket.
