Aspiring electronic music producer

[nightsabermusic]

Hey guys, my name is Ben, it is my dream to someday be a successful musician

I have been doing this a very long time, and just pretty recently created a new artist identity. it seems to be going well but,
what i really struggle with is figuring out how to monetize...

my current ideas are selling shirts online, crowdfunding or something like that? but even those aren't really great ideas, i am not famous enough to make a living with those

i know music isn't supposed to be fast lane, but i see no reason why, someone can't figure out how to make it be. Why can't it be the same as any other online business?? the problem with music is, streaming doesn't pay enough. and very few people buy. I want to figure out some kind of other solution

I am thinking about just focusing on licensing, royalty free music sites. but i am really not sure what i should do. i am kind of at a crossroads, and hoping to get some advice or ideas

thank you guys,
-Ben
