CATALOG MANAGEMENT

Catalog Management is the systematic organization, tracking, and optimization of musical compositions, master sound recordings, and the intellectual property rights that govern them. Proper catalog management ensures that artists, record labels, and music publishers protect their copyrights, streamline pitches for sync placements, and claim 100% of the royalties they are legally owed.
