Tips for selling sound effects

  • Embed descriptive metadata in every file so buyers can search the library.
  • Edit out noise and handling sounds, and normalize consistently across the library.
  • Publish a preview reel plus a full file list or spreadsheet of contents.
  • Use options for single-user, team and studio licenses.
  • Only record in places and of things you have permission to capture, and avoid recognizable copyrighted music in ambiences.

Start a sound effects marketplace

Launch a marketplace for independent sound designers on your own domain, with categories by sound type and use. MultiVendor's AI builder helps define seller requirements such as metadata and preview reels, and each seller is paid through their own payment account.

Ideas to start from

  • → A game audio marketplace for UI, ambience and combat sounds
  • → A field recording marketplace for nature and world ambiences
  • → A foley and everyday sounds marketplace for indie filmmakers
