Knowing music acquisition and licensing practices allows you to be in the conversation
Educating writers about © is essential In the beginning, there is copyright, the basis
for getting paid anytime someone wishes to use your original music.

Part Two - Value Value (noun) – 1. a fair return in goods,
services, or money for something exchanged 2. the monetary worth of something, aka “market price,” that is a price actually given in market dealings
For original music, certain qualities will help determine the relative value of each piece of music.

Does Your Music Fill a Need?
Your original music has to fill one or more of the previous needs, situations, parameters outlined in order to be considered for license or purchase
The only way to know for certain is to test your music on persons working in this part of the business (Part Four)

21
Defining License Fees How much of the song is needed? What is the audience? What territories? Term of license (13 weeks, one year,
perpetuity) ? What forms of media are requested
(TV, Internet, radio, DVD, film, etc.) ?
![Page 22: Mc George 2015 music licensing tips](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5877da801a28abaa6c8b610f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
22
Other Factors How critical is this particular piece to the
project? How popular is the song
or artist today? Are there other pieces that
would work just as well and are more easily or inexpensively available?
![Page 23: Mc George 2015 music licensing tips](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5877da801a28abaa6c8b610f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Part Three - Buyers Who are the actual buyers that may want to
use your music in their product or service? Note – we’ll refer to buyers since a monetary
transaction takes place, but the usual terminology is “licensee.”

Deadlines Time is money in TV, film and advertising production Licensing a song and master can be complex, esp. if
there are multiple “owners” in the © (see “Grenade”) Fewer people required to say “yes,” the more attractive
licensing your song & master may be Rise of “one stop” music licensing solution – one firm
administers the song and master © Some artists are now working to hold on to both “sides”
to allow easier deal-making (Big Machine, Nettwerk, Concord, etc.)
![Page 27: Mc George 2015 music licensing tips](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5877da801a28abaa6c8b610f/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
27
Part Four - Connections
Connecting Buyers with Creators is the job of a varied array of industry professionals – middle men
To break into the licensing revenue stream, you must build relationships with them
They must affirm that your music has value (Part Two)
![Page 28: Mc George 2015 music licensing tips](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5877da801a28abaa6c8b610f/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Moving Forward Three Steps to Success
Have artist join a national and a regional songwriting organization Benefits: conferences, workshops, webinars, 1-to-
1 mentoring, co-writers, building your network, referral to music licensing attorney, music supes, publishers, etc.
Have artist join a PRO – ASCAP, BMI or SESAC Benefits: help you learn, connect and earn money
as your songs are performed, mentoring, national and international connections
![Page 30: Mc George 2015 music licensing tips](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5877da801a28abaa6c8b610f/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
30
Moving Forward Start Researching Various Music Publishers
Benefits: nearly all successful songwriters affiliate with a music publisher to help maximize exposure and earnings
Music publishers have many more writers interested in signing than they can serve
Not all music publishers are the same As you build your connections, ID the ones that
best fit your artists and their creative direction
![Page 31: Mc George 2015 music licensing tips](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5877da801a28abaa6c8b610f/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31
Wrap Up Ground Rules – you must know them to enter the
field of play and be taken seriously Value – understand what creates market value
Buyers – they pay to use your music, study them, what they use and learn how such deals come together
Connections – pledge to connect now to songwriter organizations, then begin to evaluate PROs and publishers
