The Real Truth About SONGTRUST | What They Do & Don’t Do | Find More Music Royalties

I have been waiting what seems like forever to get some real information about Songtrust, a publishing administration company that I have heard a lot about, but most of what heard seemed like misinformation. Well, in this video we go directly to the source and speak to the Associate Director of Marketing for Songtrust, Renée Buchholtz. Not only do we find out EXACTLY what Songtrust does and how they do it, but we also get an excellent primer on music publishing in general! (Note: This video is NOT sponsored by Songtrust! I'm just nosy.) #royalties #songwriter #musician @songtrust LINKS IN THIS VIDEO: MUSIC ROYALTIES CHECKLIST FROM SONGTRUST: https://www.songtrust.com/make-music-income-checklist SONGTRUST SIGNUP https://www.songtrust.com/make-music-income-signup FREE EBOOK: THE DO-EVERYTHING CHECKLIST FOR YOUR SONGS https://makemusicincome.com/checklist Timestamps: 0:00 - The Real Truth About Songtrust 0:36 - Let's Talk to Songtrust 5:26 - What Songtrust DOESN'T Do 10:20 - Songtrust is a Publishing Admin 11:58 - Performance Royalties 14:25 - Performance Royalties International 21:40 - Mechanical Royalties US 27:31 - Mechanical Royalties International 30:16 - Content ID 35:35 - Song Monitoring? 38:47 - Songtrust Costs 40:09 - How Songtrust Works with PROs 45:00 - When and How Songtrust Pays 48:58 - Why Do I Need Songtrust? 50:47 - Songtrust Registration Advantage 54:12 - The Songtrust Mission 57:24 - Individual Song Takedowns? 58:42 - Can I Quit?
