Don’t Leave Money on the Table: PRO Setup & Royalties 101 Workshop & Mixer

At Cryptid Records, we're dedicated to supporting the music community in Philly and beyond. In order to continue to offer free and low-cost community events, we need y'alls help. If you sign up for a ticket and then are not able to attend the event, please cancel your ticket with as much advance notice as possible (ideally 48 hours+ before the event) so we can open your spot to someone on the waiting list.

Why PROs are important: If you song is played in a public place, you can be earning money from it.

While this workshop will likely be most helpful to folks newer to performing rights organizations (PROs), feel free to attend even if you're already a member/have some experience with PROs! We will be walking through how to sign up for a PRO and how to set everything up to collect the maximum amount of royalties from your music. We'll also discuss differences between some of the main PROs (such as ASCAP and BMI) and the different perks that each offer their members. Feel free to bring your computer to follow along with the PRO registration process if you would like.

After the workshop, stick around for a mixer to hang out / network with the Cryptid Records team and other folks in the Philly music community! This event is free to attend and your ticket comes with an open bar (beer and non-alcoholic options available) and hors d'oeuvres during the event.

Please note: By attending this event you acknowledge that the event may be photographed, or otherwise publicized, and hereby grant Cryptid Records permission to utilize your image or likeness in connection with any live or recorded transmission or reproduction of such event and promotion of future events.
