Why Do Top SoundClick Producers Do This?

[BeatGenerals]

I understand why KillerKraut said that and that's exactly why I give away freebies on my site, but I'm talking about what seveneleven247 is trying to answer. Why someone gives away freebies and leaves one of the best songs they have as a no download.

Well mostly when you give away freebies its lesser quality stuff to get someone to buy into your higher quality stuff, they could easily be applying that same logic to beats.

the Freebies they give aren't real freebies they just bait you in by allowing free downloads but you can only listen to them you don't have the rights to use them for a song. They know if you like it enough you will hit them up asking questions regarding the beats and thats when they drop the knowledge on you about leasing non-exclusive tracks at a cheap cost.

Coming from the marketing world, giving away things are never really free. There is usually some effect like 'brand building' or an "upsell'.


So for this case I think their strategy is to:


A. Build their brand to get noticed. Eventually produce exclusive work (for labels, other production houses, etc...). This way they can charge out a huge sum at once rather than a few dollars here and there.


B. This is just an upsell tactic. They will keep the best beat to themselves to build enough hype later on to sell at a premium. Or maybe have you opt in for an email list then to sell beats directly to you through email (that's what I would do at least).




I would probably say that A is the most likely. They don't want to be generic beat makers but something more.


Or they could just simply be crazy.
