Pay less and print in pdf
I sell sheet music here and is pretty happy with their accommodations and tech support.
I think the overall profit would be greater were the price $1, not $3. American artists cost $6 and it's a crazy price. Circa for 100 visitors from youtube and pinterest I get only 1 sold score. I want everyone to be able to purchase it but I am not business savvy and not practical.
90 days is enough to finally learn how to print in pdf, isn't it? It's 2025 already...
On the other hand, a transcriber can sell a pack of 2+ files with 30-50% discount and the price becomes nicer. (I offer to contact me anyone, but only a dozen of users did). You also can leave a review and get $0.5-1 back in points (points expire also).
I don't see any alternative. Musicnotes have awful transcriptions, mine are x3 more accurate and have all important parts. Their left-hand part has nothing to do with the original rhythm or the riff of song's arrangement. Their chords are off tune. Musescore is an evil company that straight up made "stealing from transcribers" the business strategy with their "from pdf to musescore" feature. There are only 10-20 users left who still upload their own transcriptions, other content is stolen pdfs.
