How to become a Ghost Producer

Many musicians want to make tracks but don’t always have the opportunity to earn from it. One of the most effective ways to monetize your creativity is to become a ghost producer.

I, Anatolii Vered, as the founder of ‘I am Ghost Producer‘ am ready to share the key aspects of this profession and explain how you can start your journey in Ghost Production.

Why Do Producers Need a Platform?

Record labels rarely generate profit, so one of the best way to make money is by selling music through a Ghost Production platform. A producer can upload their track, and once it’s sold, they get paid. All rights to the track are fully transferred to the buyer.

Track Requirements

We only accept tracks that meet our quality standards. There are five main requirements:

Originality – All submitted tracks must be original. Using pre-made melodies, chords from free libraries, or construction kits is strictly prohibited. However, vocal samples from vocal libraries are allowed, but you must be 100% sure they are royalty-free.
Copyright Compliance – The track must not violate any copyright laws.
Exclusivity – The track must be sold exclusively in our shop. It cannot be listed for sale on any other platform.
Completion – Only fully completed tracks will be accepted.
No Online Availability – The track, or any part of it, must not be shared online, including on social media or any other platforms.

At the end of the article, you’ll find a video where you can take a closer look at the Track Requirements.

Can a Track Be Rejected Even If It Meets All Requirements?

Yes, it is possible. We receive many submissions, and we do not accept all of them. The two main reasons for rejection are:

Poor quality.
The track does not fit our market demand – we know what our customers are looking for.

How Much Can a Ghost Producer Earn?

A Ghost Producer’s earnings depend on their seller category, which is based on the number of tracks they have sold on I am Ghost Producer. Producers are classified into two categories:

Silver (1 to 10 tracks sold) – 60% of the sale price.
Gold (11 or more tracks sold) – 65% of the sale price.
