I will create a royalty split sheet for your song collaboration


About this gig
Unwritten splits are where friendships and royalties both fall apart. When a song has multiple writers, producers, or topliners and there's no signed split sheet, disagreements over percentages can freeze royalties entirely, since many PROs and publishers won't pay out until every share is documented and signed.
I draft a clean, industry-standard split sheet for your collaboration: every collaborator's name, role, and percentage, worded the way PROs and publishers expect, ready for e-signature.
What you get: a completed split sheet PDF, a plain-English summary of what each party is agreeing to, and guidance on registering those splits with your PRO or the MLC once everyone signs.
Why this beats a free template: generic templates miss role-specific language (sample clearance, producer points vs. writer share, topliner credit) that causes rejections or disputes later. I write it the way rights organizations actually expect it.
You and your collaborators provide names and agreed percentages. This documents your agreement; it isn't legal advice, and I recommend a lawyer review high-value splits.

FAQ
Is a split sheet legally binding?
It's strong written evidence of an agreed ownership split. For high-value catalogs, I still recommend having a lawyer review it.
What if my collaborators disagree on percentages?
I can share industry-standard split frameworks to help the conversation, but the final split is always your team's decision, not mine.
Do you need everyone's personal or banking info?
No just legal names and emails for e-signature. No SSNs or banking details go through me.
