Workshop - Metadata = Money: What Every Manager Needs to Know

Accurate metadata is no longer a “nice to have” — it’s the foundation that determines whether your clients, creators, and you get paid correctly, quickly, and globally. This workshop breaks down why capturing metadata during the creative process is the single most important step managers can influence. We’ll demystify identifiers, credits, workflows, and the real-world consequences of missing or incorrect information. You’ll learn how to protect your clients’ income, prevent royalty leakage, and build a professional foundation that scales. Open to all ESNS delegates and essential for managers, creators, and anyone working with music rights.
