Music Business 101: What is a Net Receipts Deal? . In a Net Receipts deal, artists earn a percentage of the revenue generated from their music after subtracting specific contractual costs. A very common deal seen in the music industry, and important for any new upcoming artists to understand!

So many posts about “fixes” the music industry needs to address. What’s not front and center that plagues the music industry is bush league royalty reporting. We are hearing from companies that their music royalty statements are over 1 year past due, and some PAY a back-office to have their statements processed for them. This puts the word absurd at another level that there is a struggle to pay labels and publishers even when the payee is known vs dealing with pending and unmatched files. We are making an unprecedented offer to process past due statements at no charge under the “Royalty Rescue Plan”. Learn more about the details of our offer: https://lnkd.in/ggKGqpuT

I had a feeling our “Royalty Rescue Plan” would be well received, but it is a much bigger hit than anticipated.  Our plan directly addresses a consistent flow of complaints that have been shared about some royalty reporting vendors and the frustrations expressed by those who try to do reporting in-house. Top complaints: (1)     we are so far behind on statements for no good reason (2)     dealing with our vendor is like going to the DMV (3)     they take our money, but we can’t pay our royalties on time (4)     my deal renewals are in jeopardy because my statements are not sent on time We have clients of all sizes (some of the largest in the space that need royalty reporting) and their statements are delivered on time. If you have the same complaints as others, please check out our “Royalty Rescue Plan” and let’s get you into our fold. Learn more about the details of our offer: https://lnkd.in/ggKGqpuT

The magic of music lies in the words that tell our stories. Protecting these lyrics through copyright ensures their creators’ efforts are respected and valued. Over time, these stories become cherished memories, resonating deeply within us and enriching our personal histories. An item that decreases in value over time is a consumer durable, while an asset that increases in value over time is an investment. We turn music into an investment asset and value it as lasting art. Because it is. To learn more, see link in bio (learn more) or visit https://nebu.la #valuemusic⁠ #newmusic⁠ #invest #smartcontracts
