At last month's [SF MusicTech Summit](http://www.sfmusictech.com/?ref=hypebot.com), a panel including **Dave Cool** ([Bandzoogle](http://bandzoogle.com/?ref=hypebot.com)), **Zack Greenburg** ([Forbes](http://www.forbes.com/?ref=hypebot.com)), **Kristin Thomson** ([Future of Music Coalition](http://www.futureofmusic.org/?ref=hypebot.com)), **Wade Metzler** ([SoundExchange](http://www.soundexchange.com/?ref=hypebot.com)), **J Sider** ([BandPage](http://www.bandpage.com/?ref=hypebot.com)) and **Amy Dietz** ([INgrooves](http://www.ingroovesfontana.com/?ref=hypebot.com)) discussed where the money is for artists in today's music industry.

Give yourself a leg up with these career tips from SF Music Tech's "[Where's the Cash For Musicians Today and Beyond](https://soundcloud.com/sfmusictech/where-is-the-cash-for-musicians?ref=hypebot.com)" panelists.
