Keira Wade
Music Rights Consultant
Over my 10+ years in music rights management I have worked with writers of all levels of representation, from large publishing firms to boutique rights holders and independent singer-songwriters. Conducting countless catalogue/royalty audits, identifying thousands of missing works and finding millions in missing royalties for my clients. This makes me uniquely positioned to make sure that no matter your size, you are getting paid what you are owed.
How I can help:
The main goal of any investigation is to ensure income completeness by identifying and correcting existing issues while creating processes to avoid mistakes going forward.
I take a no stone left unturned approach to any investigation as royalties are a river of pennies. I will gather every data-set available and carefully cross examine to find inconsistencies that are costing you money.
Flexible, personalized pricing based on the size of the writer/company and scope of the project. I am willing to get creative with pricing and bundling of services to make sure all your needs are met.
A fully transparent and thorough review of your catalogue with a set of clear deliverables presented during quote process, tailored to the services you require.
All services include a free Publishing 101 lesson so you are left feeling empowered, whether you like it or not.
