How can I make money with Gideen?
![]()
Let’s say you donate $25 for the future music income of one song.
Now, there are 2 main ways:
1. When the song gets licensed, you receive 1/3 of the upfront licensing fee.
An example: A filmmaker wants to use this music in his or her film and acquires a “lifetime” license for this song. The licensing price is US $ 999.00, set by the music maker who has uploaded the song. You get 1/3 = US $ 333.00 as your portion of this revenue stream.
2. In addition, the film might be screened on the big screen or broadcasted on TV or uploaded to multiple social media platforms. Gideen collects all possible back end revenues, e.g. streaming, performance or advertisement royalties.
These revenues are coming in from multiple countries over time and you receive 1/3 of the collected amount.
WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT MUSIC INCOME
When music is played in TV shows, radio, film, video games,
personal videos, ringtones, streamed via YouTube, Spotify, Pandora, or sold as CDs
or digital downloads via iTunes or Amazon, and played live in concerts or shows,
various revenues are collected and distributed to the music rights owner.
The calculation of such Music Royalties varies by type, country, size, audience
and many other factors. Since music is available worldwide in real time now,
there are hundreds to thousands of different music royalty payments that are being
made from multiple sources for the same song every day.
Each day, many new platforms are born, such as iMusic or beatsmusic, which generate even more revenue for the music rights owners of any given
song. Now, Gideen brings this income potential to everyone and you can
participate.
The creators of Gideen bring 25 years of experience in the
music business, and they specialize in collecting this type of music income
worldwide, which guarantees that your portion of any music income will be
accounted and distributed to you.
In 2013, TheTrichordist.com
published a music royalty income statement from a songwriter in the United States.

The artist co-wrote a song called “Low” and holds a 40%
writer share.
In just 3 months during the 4th quarter of 2012, the
song was played 179 times on SiriusXM Radio in the US, which yielded music
royalty payments of $181.94 (USD) for his 40% stake.
Let’s do the math:
100% of the song’s shares would have received $454.85 (USD), divided by 179 plays
= $2.54 (USD) per play – and that’s just one radio station in one country! There
are tens of thousands of radio stations worldwide.
In general, music revenues can range from a few cents to millions of dollars.
WHY GIDEEN NEEDS YOUR HELP
Since building this disruptive new platform is such a huge
and complex undertaking, you can imagine that the payroll for software architects, engineers, designers and
legal counsel is adding up quickly!

We’re looking to raise $10,000 here to help us finish the
Beta version of the website, which is the most crucial piece of the puzzle for
us to be able to offer Gideen as the significant music industry breakthrough that it is.
