The Kobalt Model - A Modern Approach To Publishing Sets New Industry Standards
Collection of royalties has traditionally been time-consuming and costly. Usually writers receive royalties 9-24 months after they are earned and pay a significant amount of up to 50% of gross royalties in payments to intermediaries including collection societies. In addition, the traditionally opaque and complex reporting have made it near impossible for the writers to know if the collected royalties are correct or comprehensive. Kobalt has developed centralised, automated and efficient administration services supported by a scalable, proprietary, dedicated system using the latest technology. As a result of Kobalt's innovative approach, Kobalt offers a reduction in royalty collection time of up to 50%, more effective collection as well as substantially improved transparency.
Additionally, when copyright holders and songwriters need money, music publishers usually offer them monetary advances contingent upon the copyright holder giving up part ownership in their works. However Kobalt provides the ability for clients to inexpensively obtain pipeline advances as needed and flexible rates without having to give up rights or secure long term deals. When this is combined with personalised creative/A&R, and synchronisation services for the client from our responsive, experienced global teams, Kobalt is clearly the best choice for managing your copyrights.
*Note: Tokio Hotel has not signed a contract with a new label.*
