Home / Rights Negotiations
We negotiate music rights on your behalf, with the relationships and leverage that come from 25+ years in the business.
Music rights negotiation is part art, part science, and part relationship management. The same track can cost dramatically different amounts depending on how a request is framed, who's asking, what usage is proposed, and what kind of relationship exists with the rights holder. Brands and agencies negotiating directly, without established relationships or deep knowledge of market rates, routinely overpay, accept unfavorable terms, or encounter delays that wouldn't exist with the right contacts.
Clearinghouse Sync negotiates sync and master rights on behalf of brands, agencies, and productions. We know what fair market rates look like across genres, territories, platforms, and usage types. We know which rights holders move quickly and which need careful handling. And we know how to structure asks in ways that protect your budget while building goodwill that makes your next campaign easier to clear.
The leverage you don't have alone
Relationships move faster
than cold requests every time.
Rights holders respond faster to people they know. An experienced negotiation partner's network is directly reflected in response times, rates, and the quality of the final deal.
The first time.
