The Viral Funnel: Turning TikTok AI Jingles into Merch Sales and Patreon Payouts

AI Music Podcast

Have you ever had a video go viral but earned nothing from it? This episode tackles that exact problem with a step-by-step guide. We reveal the concrete sales funnel that turns a 15-second, AI-generated TikTok jingle into a reliable income stream from both merchandise and fan memberships on Patreon. We break down a real-world example: an artist creates a quirky, AI-generated jingle about their cat that unexpectedly goes viral. The pain point is clear: millions of views are great, but they don't pay the bills. The solution is a two-pronged monetization strategy, starting with a fast, easy-to-launch merchandise item and escalating to a high-value, exclusive Patreon community for true fans. This episode shows you how to connect the dots. **Key Takeaways:** * How do you turn a 15-second audio clip into a full-fledged brand? * What is the single most important link to have in your TikTok bio when a video goes viral? * When is the perfect moment to launch merchandise, and what's the risk of waiting too long? * How can you create exclusive Patreon content without spending hours on it? * What specific, high-value reward can you offer that turns casual followers into paying supporters? * How do you price your Patreon tiers to be attractive without undervaluing your work? * Why is a print-on-demand service the secret weapon for monetizing a sudden trend? * What kind of AI-generated content works best for building a fan community?
