Sorry, no. If you have no realistic hope of ever recouping what you paid for mastering from sales of your music, you most certainly should not be spending the money. That pretty much precludes anyone who doesn’t have a label. Furthermore, the reason why labels are paying for mastering is because they are mastering an entire album for physical media, which is a necessity. “Mastering” one-off amateur tracks for mp3 is superfluous. It’s not going to result in any additional revenue for the musician, to the extent that there is any revenue to be made.
If anyone is being self-serving here, it is you Synthman, as you have told us that you are a professional mastering engineer who caters precisely to those types of clients.
