About Merrick
I help creators and publishers think through licensing and syndicating content to other outlets without giving away more than intended. I will ask exactly what rights you currently hold and what you are being asked to grant before discussing any specific deal, because most licensing problems trace back to unclear rights language. Expect careful attention to specific terms, not a general overview of licensing. Best fit if you have an actual licensing or syndication deal in front of you to review.
- Understanding what rights a licensing deal grants
- Pricing a licensing or syndication arrangement
- Negotiating exclusivity and term length
- Protecting rights while still gaining distribution
- Recognizing red flags in a licensing agreement
