Congrats Jeff! There's nothing quite like hearing your music on TV. I'm about 7 years into my production music journey, and I'll tell ya... it's still like Christmas morning every time I get a new placement!
Quite honestly Mark, I don't even care about getting the money. Just knowing that I made music that was good enough to be on TV and getting the validation that this whole process does work...has me over the moon. Sure, some cash in my pocket would be nice too, but the satisfaction of knowing that my music got placed, is so much more exciting.
I think that's a great place to be. Once money comes into the equation, that can quickly change the tone of the conversation ("Why does it take so long to get paid? Why are my tracks only making pennies?" etc.). Of course, some folks are motivated to make serious dough and go full-time, and more power to them if they can make it happen. But if you can stay motivated through the validation of placements alone... I think you may find it to be a much more fulfilling journey when it's not monetarily driven.
