What Does a Music Publisher Really Do — And How Can It Boost Your Royalties?
Most artists upload their songs and wait for royalties to roll in. But without a music publisher, you’re likely missing out on a major chunk of income. Here’s what music publishing is all about — and how WavesHit helps you take full control of it.
🧾 What Is a Music Publisher?
A music publisher manages the legal use of your compositions. They work to:
- Register your songs with rights organizations (BMI, ASCAP, SACM, etc.)
- Collect royalties from radio, TV, YouTube, live shows, and more
- Protect your copyrights on a global scale
💸 What Kind of Royalties Are We Talking About?
- Mechanical Royalties – From physical and digital reproductions
- Performance Royalties – From radio, venues, bars, gyms, etc.
- Sync Royalties – From movies, ads, video games, or shows
