It is a great way to expose your music to a greater audience, and in doing so, help you build your fanbase. Not only that, it can be a great form of revenue, both in the form of royalties and sync fees! The sync fee is a one-off, upfront payment for the license to use your music in visual media. Imagine if you get a sync in an episode of a successful TV show that has reruns on TV for years and years.
However, the exposure you can get from landing a sync placement is too important not to mention. Many artists and bands have gained a massive amount of exposure and seen a growth in fanbase through having their music synced. The people who work on any video project need to find music that perfectly matches the project and specifically the scenes within it. The person usually in charge of doing this is called a music supervisor.
These sources find tracks in their catalogue that match the project and send them back to the music supervisor. After this, the supervisor often together with the director will pick the tracks that best fit the project and move onto the process of clearing the rights to license the music.
Check your contract with them to see if sync is included in your deal. Hopefully, this means that they would also find you more opportunities. This obviously leaves you less time to be doing what you do best, making music and being creative! As you may be able to imagine, the world of sync licensing is a very competitive one.

Or the license could grant you the right to use it in one visual production or to use it in an unlimited number of videos. A license is like a lease to an apartment. When you get a lease, you do not own the apartment. Instead, you are given the right to use it for a set amount of time.
