I apologize in advance.
You might be expecting to hear some top-secret industry trick about how to get uber-rich off your voice… so this answer might seem a little boring.
But you’ve been warned. 🙂
The biggest secret to making amazing money as a singer is developing strong singing technique.
TOLD YOU. Boring. But hear me out.
Your vocal technique is the most valuable asset you have, and let me prove it. Here’s how leveling-up your voice can significantly increase your earning potential.
1. Stand Out in Auditions: Auditions are your gateway to new opportunities, whether for live performances, studio recordings, or television appearances. With solid singing technique, you can confidently tackle challenging auditions, and impress the judges to increase your chances of landing gigs that pay well.
2. Expand Your Repertoire: With your voice at the top of its game, you get to explore a broader range of musical styles and genres. Versatility is highly sought after in the industry, and being able to tackle diverse material can open doors to more opportunities and higher-paying jobs.
3. Reduce Studio Time and Costs: Recording studios are expensive, and every minute counts. When your vocal technique is on point, you can significantly reduce the time spent in the studio, thus cutting costs. You’ll need fewer takes and edits, ensuring a more efficient recording process, and a better finished product.
4. Touring and Live Performances: Strong technique = greater vocal endurance, enabling you to deliver consistent, pitch-perfect performances throughout a demanding tour. This makes you a sought-after artist, but it also reduces the risk of vocal fatigue, potential cancellations, and extra medical expenses.
5. Vocal Health and Longevity: Proper technique is essential for maintaining vocal health and extending your singing career. Avoiding strain, injury, and vocal damage allows you to continue performing at your best for years or even decades… maximizing your lifetime earnings.
6. Higher Paying Gigs: Top-tier venues, events, and even ministry opportunities come with higher paychecks. Organizers, producers, and churches are willing to invest more in vocalists who have mastered their craft, and command their voice with confidence. It’s a better investment.
7. Networking and Collaborations: In any industry, your reputation often precedes you. As a skilled singer, you’ll be more likely to attract the attention of other musicians, producers, and professionals, leading to collaborations that can be financially rewarding.
8. Audience Appeal: Fans pay the bills. With your voice at the top of its game, you’ll gain loyal fans who attend your shows and buy your music, merchandise, and tickets.
Great singers are great for a reason.
Investing in your vocal technique is an investment in your future.
It makes you a more valuable and sought-after artist. We see that here in Nashville all the time… it’s a big pond here with so many singers. The “good” singers all blend in, but the bad singers and the GREAT singers stand out.
So take the time and effort to hone your technique. It’s not just about becoming a better singer… it’s about unlocking your full potential and turning your voice into an income-earning machine.
