Given the workload required by music managers, lawyers, independent labels, and publishers on a daily basis, much of the available funding and royalty tracking is not always followed up vigorously. This can often mean tens and sometimes hundreds of thousands of dollars of uncollected income and even more in untapped funding opportunities. Even the most talented and able bodied managers and owners do not have the time, energy, or up to date information to track all potential income streams all of the time. It is for this reason that Entertainment Business Affairs Inc. ("EBA") was created.
More and more money has become available to creators and entrepreneurs in the music and filmed entertainment business.
In the music industry, this rings true both through royalty income streams as well as private and government funded support initiatives including tax credits, grants and loans. In the film and television industry, tax credits are available to film producers in virtually every province in Canada.
While these revenue streams are widely available, royalty stream collection in the music business continues to be a largely unknown and untapped area for many - especially those in the independent sectors. As well, the application and administration of private and public sector grant and tax credit opportunities, has despite the best intentions, proven cumbersome to track and file all the opportunities on time, all of the time.
