Looking to see how many musicians actually wants to start their own business. And what would be a reasonable capital to start if your answer is yes?

Education business

Education? music? like teaching people to play piano, etc.?

I actually know a few, they are my clients. I can share some insights. What do you want to know?

Still asking myself the same question.
1. Education. Depending on your age and time, it can be free.
2. Equipment. Do you have it? If you're still on p.1, Craigslist can give it to you for free.
3. Recording. This one's gonna cost you dear, and the less time/money spent on p.1-2, the more expensive p.3
4. Performing. It's usually free, or brings underwhelming income.

me! i thinking of selling music accessories.
hahaha.
not the music instruments.

i give up on playing music for money.

what abt u? what biz u starting?

I hope to start a small biz with only 50k.

A few years ago I wanted to open a drums related only outlet but time and work got in the way. Maybe when I settle back in I might revisit the idea. It's a one-stop drums shop where you can get all the drums, accessories, lessons, service. Will probably carry all the brands. I even contacted a Turkish custom cymbal maker to be a sole distributor. They were quite keen and offered a good package to be whole of Asia distributor.

I think that if you are extremely good as musician , then starting a career is not so problematic.

why not record your play and post social platform to earn ads fees?

If it's a music center with education and selling instruments, is any speical business license required? Like MOE license?
