Step 1
Decide if Sheet Music Publishing is the right industry to target
The Sheet Music Publishing industry
The Sheet Music Publishing industry involves businesses that manage and license the copyrights of musical compositions. These companies play a crucial role in the music ecosystem by ensuring that songwriters and composers are fairly compensated for the use of their work. They act as intermediaries between the creators of music and those who want to use it, such as performers, recording artists, and film and television producers.
What businesses are included
This industry includes a range of publishers, from large, international companies that manage vast catalogs of popular music to smaller, specialized publishers that focus on specific genres, such as classical music or jazz. They generate revenue by issuing licenses for the use of musical compositions in various contexts, including live performances, recordings, broadcasts, and sheet music publications.
When targeting the Sheet Music Publishing industry on LinkedIn, your search will automatically cover all related sub-industries. To maximize the relevance of your leads, you may want to exclude certain sub-industries that don’t align with your ideal customer profile.
Sub-industries included in Sheet Music Publishing:
Which businesses are not included
It's important to distinguish sheet music publishers from businesses that print and sell physical copies of sheet music. While sheet music publishers hold the copyrights to the compositions, companies involved in printing and distributing sheet music are considered part of the printing and retail industries, respectively. Additionally, this category doesn't include businesses primarily focused on recording, producing, or distributing musical recordings, as those fall under the sound recording industry. It also excludes businesses that primarily represent and manage musical artists, as those fall under the broader category of artist management within the music industry.
