Zoom calls, meetings, agreements Shirin David's wealth doesn't just come from music

Shirin David has made a name for herself as a musician, but her financial success is primarily based on other lines of business.

Shirin David has not only made a name for herself as a musician, but also as a successful businesswoman. In addition to her music, she has launched her own perfumes on the market and amassed a considerable fortune. However, the majority of her income does not come from her songs.

Iced tea as a recipe for success

Her iced tea business with the Dirtea brand is particularly lucrative. Despite initial production and delivery problems, which she addressed in an interview with the financial magazine 'Forbes', the business has proven to be extremely profitable. "The product quality wasn't right and I just couldn't justify it. For me, it's important to stand behind any product that has my name on it," Shirin explained. She emphasizes the importance of a good brand reputation and spends more time in the office than in the studio: "I don't show that side of my life that often, but I spend a lot of time there. 60% of my time is actually spent on office tasks: Zoom calls, meetings, making arrangements in our Whatsapp group - that's my daily routine."

A life without a break

Shirin David dispels the preconception that she only makes music videos and posts them on Instagram. "A lot of people think I only make music videos and post on Instagram every now and then, but the reality is different," she assures us. "I now feel like I'm working 24/7. Whether it's music, products or my team - I'm always involved and don't have a classic nine-to-five job. For me, it's more like 'nine-to-five plus'." This hard work pays off: She has already achieved sales of around 97 million euros with Dirtea, and her perfumes are also a bestseller with sales of over 20 million euros.

Recognition and gratitude

Shirin proudly shared the latest 'Forbes' issue on Instagram, on the cover of which she can be seen. The response from her fans was overwhelming, with tens of thousands of likes. "Thank you for your love and support, I'm so touched," Shirin David wrote, showing her appreciation for her loyal fan base.
