๐ What is a Streams to Sales Calculator?
A Streams to Sales Calculator helps you estimate:
- How many streams you need to reach a sales goal
- How much money you’re earning from your streams
- How your streams might turn into downloads, merch sales, tickets, or fan support
It bridges the gap between likes and listens and actual dollars. ๐๐ต
๐ข How It Works
You’ll just need a few pieces of information:
- Total streams you have (Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, etc.)
- Estimated payout rate per stream (each platform pays differently!)
- Conversion rate (optional: how many listeners buy something)
From there, the calculator shows you:
- ๐ต How much youโre earning in pure streaming revenue
- ๐๏ธ How many potential buyers or ticket buyers you might have

๐ Quick Example
If you have:
- 50,000 streams
- An average payout of $0.0035 per stream
- 2% of your listeners buying merch or tickets
Youโd earn:
$0.0035 ร 50,000 = $175 in pure streaming revenue
And you might have:
50,000 ร 2% = 1,000 potential buyers!
