Why can't I collect myself through collection societies?
Local collection societies process the income they receive. However, we believe that only by having a local representative acting on your behalf can you be sure that your interests are adequately protected.What's different about The Independent Music Group?
Our worldwide consortium consists of strong independent publishers with a vast amount of experience. They are there because they are excellent at what they do and this means that the job they do for you will be excellent too.
I would rather do territory by territory deals, I like the personal contact with the publisher in each country.
There's no point! With The Independent Music Group you get the best of all worlds. You'll get one centralised statement from London covering all territories but we are delighted if you have direct contact with each and every one of our consortium members - in fact we encourage it.
Direct contact is particularly helpful in the creative area. But you only administrate, I want my catalogue worked?
Don't listen to those that say that! We have specialists dealing with song-plugging, synchronisation and A & R.
