Royalty Rescue Plan Questionnaire

Are your statements past due? Are record labels and music publishers unhappy? Are you paying for a royalty accounting vendor who is not doing their job?

We are making an unprecedented offer to process past due statements at no charge.

We need to know about your royalty reporting requirements and the statements that are past due. We are going to evaluate the information you provide below to process your past due statements. If you need to process more than 1 year of past due statements we can handle it, but we need to know about what is needed. Once we assess your requirements we will provide a response evaluation and a service offer. We may contact you with follow up questions as we review your information.

We reserve the right to not provide our services to any company for any reason. Your submission of the questionnaire is not a guarantee that we will provide the services to you. The Royalty Rescue Plan is subject to additional terms and conditions to qualify. Further information will be provided following our review of a completed questionnaire.
