Why join A PRO ? (ASCAP, BMI, SESAC)

Why Join ASCAP? Joining ASCAP is a critical step in your career in music. By joining ASCAP you can begin to register your songs, collect performance royalties and take advantage of many exclusive career benefits. As the only member-owned performing rights organization in the U.S., ASCAP is free from conflicting interests. Everything that ASCAP does, from collecting and distributing royalties to protecting and strengthening copyright to developing and supporting your career, is done to serve you throughout your life in music.
There is a one time, nominal processing fee of $50to apply for ASCAP membership, but there are no annual dues. You can join as a writer or a publisher or both - the processing fee is $35 for each application. This fee is non-refundable. Click one of the buttons below to start filling out theonline application. We look forward to welcoming you to the ASCAP family.
Before you begin, please have the following information in hand:
Writer:
• Your Social Security Number
• Information about a work you wrote or co-wrote (e.g. title, name of the performer or artist, date it was released or performed)
ASCAP isn't the only PRO (Performing Rights Organization) SESAC and BMI are also PROs in American and abroad as well as others and they all basically do the same things with slight differences, you need to check each ones specifics to see if it fits you or if they can tailor something to your liking before you join also SESAC is free to join and you must meet with the Pres. to see if he accepts YOU to join their family so that says something right there. Holla Bak @cha dude. Peace
