Not a course. Not generic advice. This is the exact breakdown of how I generated $11,116 from music in 2025 across four income streams — with the real numbers attached.
Inside you'll find every income source broken down honestly: what it was, how I earned it, what it paid, and what it actually required. Plus what didn't work, a month by month reality check, and the tools I used throughout the year.
Built for independent artists and producers who want to understand what making money from music actually looks like — not the highlight reel version.

ABOUT
I grew up on Long Island playing trumpet in the school band before I ever touched a DAW. Downloaded FL Studio at 12 and never looked back.
I moved to Nashville to study audio engineering and music business, with one summer interning under Grammy-winning producer Cynthia Daniels at MonkMusic Studios back on Long Island. What started as a degree turned into a career built across every side of the industry.
In 2020 everything clicked. My record "I Saw An Angel" got picked up by Promoting Sounds and took me from 200 to 20,000 monthly listeners overnight. That moment taught me more about what makes a record travel in an online-centric industry than any classroom could.
Since then I've worked as A&R helping build the distribution arm at Boost Collective, consulted for Nebula, a catalog brokerage operating under Backstreet Boys songwriter Andrew Fromm, and ran artist ad campaigns at Atom Music Marketing driving pre-saves, streams, and sales through Meta. My placements include releases on Atlantic Records and Anjunadeep.
My approach has always been the same. Go as deep as possible into what makes an artist unique, then shape it for commercial appeal if that's where they're headed. That's the lens behind everything I build, teach, and release under Poole Creative.
