I've learned that there are many more aspects to this business, with writing and/or creating songs themselves, being just a small part. Micheal Elsner and Jody Friedman are two of the elite licensing gurus that each offer their own advice through their own experiences (I've completed each of their licensing courses). Click on the links below their pics if you too have an interest.

I have considered writing an e-book to help people understand the complexities of it.
