Last month, Riptide Music Group’s EVP Megan McKinlay spoke on the “Starting Your Label’s Publishing Arm — Best Practices” panel at A2IM’s Indie Week conference. She was joined by Alisa Coleman (ABKCO Music & Records, Inc.), Christy Robinson (Curb Records), and Kim Temple (Six Shooter Records), who discussed their recommendations for effectively launching a publishing wing within a label.


Megan’s key points included:

How to have and maintain accurate metadata and a centralized database to store it;

Partnering with an existing publisher to learn about registration, royalty types, and collection;

Attain membership at trade organizations (e.g., A2IM, NMPA, AIMP) to stay current with relevant topics in publishing space and take advantage of built in support and connection.
