Business Affairs

You cannot sell what you cannot prove you own.

Business affairs for catalogs, distributors and sales agents. We manage your rights, your availability and your royalties, and we tell you what a deal is worth before you sign it.

The work

  • The rights register

    We establish what your catalog actually grants you, title by title.

  • New agreements

    We assess every inbound deal before you commit, and our recommendation comes in writing.

  • Availability

    We produce the reports your sales team works from.

  • Reversions and renewals

    We track the dates your rights expire or revert to you, and we flag them in advance.

  • Participations and royalties

    We coordinate the processing of your royalty obligations with your accounting team and the collecting societies, and we check what you are paid.

  • Chain of title and deliverables

    We maintain the delivery and chain-of-title file distributors and E&O insurers require.

  • Registration and recordation

    We register the works and record the transfers with the US Copyright Office and the CNC.

  • Your exposure

    We verify that you can stand behind the title warranty before you give it.

Where to start

The Rights Register Audit

A defined tranche of your catalog, read and distilled into a working register in two weeks. What you hold, what is clear to sell, what reverts, and every point where the agreements conflict or fall silent, set out for your counsel.

Fixed fee, agreed before we start and credited toward your first month.
