For many musicians, music publishing can feel complex, but it’s one of the most important aspects of a successful career. Publishing ensures songwriters and producers get paid for their work—not just from streaming and sales but from royalties earned worldwide.
At WALKMUXIC INC, we offer three key types of publishing services: Full Publishing, Co-Publishing, and Administrative Publishing. Each has its unique benefits, depending on how much control an artist wants to retain and how involved they want a publisher to be. Let’s break them down
1. Full Publishing: Maximum Support, Maximum Reach
Full publishing is a comprehensive service where the publisher takes full responsibility for managing a songwriter’s music catalog. This means handling:
✅ Song registration with global collection societies
✅ Royalty collection from streaming, radio, TV, and live performances
✅ Sync licensing to place songs in movies, ads, and video games
✅ Copyright protection to prevent unauthorized use
✅ Legal & administrative work to ensure proper payments
Who is Full Publishing for?
✔️ Artists and songwriters who want a hands-off approach to managing their royalties
✔️ Those looking for global reach and more opportunities in sync licensing
2. Co-Publishing: Shared Ownership, Shared Success
In a co-publishing deal, the songwriter and the publisher split the publishing rights, usually 50/50. The songwriter retains partial ownership, while the publisher manages royalty collection, licensing, and promotion.
🔹 You keep 50% of the publishing rights
🔹 The publisher registers, collects, and monetizes your work
🔹 Sync opportunities are actively pitched
🔹 Copyright protection and legal support are included
Who is Co-Publishing for?
✔️ Artists who want publisher support but still want to keep some ownership
✔️ Songwriters looking for better sync opportunities and industry connections
3. Administrative Publishing: Full Ownership, Professional Management
Administrative publishing is for songwriters who want 100% ownership of their music but need help managing royalty collection, registration, and licensing.
✅ You keep 100% ownership of your publishing rights
✅ We register and collect royalties on your behalf
✅ Your songs are protected globally
✅ Sync licensing support is available (non-exclusive)
✅ You avoid the hassle of paperwork and legal processes
Who is Administrative Publishing for?
✔️ Independent artists who want full control but need help managing royalties
✔️ Songwriters who already have an audience but need proper royalty collection
