OUR PROCESS

How we turn content into income

Content Audit

We begin by assessing not only the digital content that you have, but also where it is currently licensed. We’ll collaborate with you to understand the nature of your content and begin to identify potential placement opportunities. Most significantly, we will be able to better communicate the strengths of your collection to outlets and purchasers.

Licensing Strategy

We help you shift beyond your own digital properties to reach audiences on the platforms they use to consume content. If you already have some licensing deals in place we review them for their renegotiation potential. Through close collaboration, we develop an understanding of your goals, identify the right audience, and discover inventive opportunities within our established and vetted network of content distributors.

Outreach and Negotiations

We find and develop licensing opportunities for your content, managing negotiations from first outreach to completed deals. We have the in-house knowledge to understand what your content is worth and the established connections to explore almost every conceivable licensing opportunity.

Contracts and Partnership Management

Content licensing can be a complicated endeavor filled with legalese and fine print. MEI Global provides the expertise so you can keep focus on your core responsibilities and be sure your rights are protected. You always have the final say — we never make any deal without your consent. But signing the deal is just the start. MEI Global manages partnerships proactively on your behalf, optimizing the business opportunity and making sure everything runs smoothly.
