As MLR attracts more and more newbies to the music library world I’m collecting various posts that deal with recurring questions. Please check these links first! Continue reading
Getting What You Want
I’ve been thinking about this post for a very long time. I particularly wanted to pass this along to those who are younger and might find value in these concepts.
It has to do with the power we all have within us, tapping into that power, and achieving what we want out of life. I have been using these universal truths for decades to help manifest goals that have been important to me. It’s helped with my health (you need good health before anything!), career, financial security and finding my soul mate. Continue reading
BMI payday today
Who said Friday the 13th was unlucky! BMI royalties out today and had a decent payout. Still not a living wage but better than last quarter. Jingle Punks still rockin’ with some good major network placements as well as Scorekeepers. Also picked up a few Kardahsian placements from one of my other deals.
How about you? Here’s hoping for some fat payouts for all!
Key man clause
Brian Curtin, composer and MLR member, came by the other day to have lunch and we were discussing the music library business (what else!). We were discussing the fact that many of the recent music libraries that have sprung up are a one person operation or is dependent on one person to drive the company. So the question becomes what happens to the music if that person leaves the company, dies (God forbid), disappears, or just flakes? My thought was that back in the day I had a few contracts that had a “key man” clause. It basically states that if a particular person leaves the company, for whatever reason, the contract is null and void.
Anyone have such a clause in a contract? Curious.
