subscription to a Creator to gain access

music on repeat for hours on end rather
3:16
than just listening once and moving on

3:20
listener will listen to about one to two
3:22
songs a day compare that to string beats

4:28
by having ads appear in their streams

5:34
those Without A Creative Cloud
5:35
membership the platform fee is 20 the
5:38
subscription system is still relatively
5:40
new so if you didn't get invited to the

program you may have to wait for it to
5:43
become more widely available but it is
5:49

5:51
patreon but their major difference is
5:53
that coffee doesn't take any fees from

6:22
to patreon number 10 medium if you're a

social media Creator then medium is a
6:30
good place to start to get paid for your

work it's not incredibly hard to find a
6:34
paid writing gig but writing on media
