ONE AGREEMENT. TOTAL CONTROL.
- One agreement — You engage Word Collections once.
- Choose the scope — Add the artists, works, services, countries and rights you want covered.
- Choose the money flow — Direct Word Collections to pay all royalties to you, or pay some portion to you and the rest to the songwriter, label, distributor or anyone you designate. Automatically split the royalty and commission.
- Change it at will — Add or remove works, narrow the scope or terminate on 30 days’ notice.
03 / COMPLETE FLEXIBILITY
Pick the services. Pick the countries. Pick the songwriters.
Use the whole network or only the pieces that solve a specific problem. Keep existing relationships where they work. Change the scope when the client’s needs change.
- ServicesApple, Spotify, YouTube, Amazon, TikTok and selected others.
- TerritoriesWorldwide, United States, outside the United States, or a custom mix.
- Clients and worksAll clients, selected artists or selected songs—changeable at any time.
06 / FUTURE LEVERAGE
As a client, you now have direct collection relationships with the largest digital streaming services in the world.
A prospective administrator can handle only what remains—or materially improve its terms to compete with what you already have. The arrangement stays flexible so clients can still change scope, move rights or accept an advance.
YOUR CLIENTS. YOUR CHOICES. YOUR INFRASTRUCTURE.
