Collecting societies can help you maximise your royalty income by approving certain licenses and collecting royalties on your behalf. They take care of the administration and distribution of your royalties. They can also help navigate complex licensing landscapes, including statutory and voluntary licenses, ensuring you are compensated for uses in various settings, such as education, government, and public performances.
Don’t leave any potential royalties on the cutting room floor. Contact Sanicki Lawyers today for a consultation.
Collecting societies are organisations that help artists, musicians, and other creators and rights holders manage their copyrights and collect royalties for their work. They act as intermediaries between copyright owners and those who want to use their copyrighted material for certain purposes. Collecting societies play a vital role in the creative industries, making it easier for creators to grant third party licenses and earn income from their work. There are many different collecting societies, each specialising in a particular type of copyrighted work, such as music, visual art, or film.
