Did your eyes just glaze over? Then this is the session for you! These are very important ways you will make money as an artist and you definitely need to understand the hows and the whys. Questions like - How do you divide up the songwriting share of a song? How your royalties are collected from retail, café and concerts? How it works when your songs are on adverts or TV shows? What exactly is publishing?

You have this great song and it’s a hit! How do you get it on radio? What radio should you be targetting? Is radio even relevant anymore and should you just try and get it on New Music Friday and other playlists on Spotify? Do I need a radio plugger to do any of this? How can NZ On Air help me?
