Royalty Solutions Corp
Royalty Solutions Corp is a New York-based, fee-based music royalty administration and publishing services firm that acts as an outsourced, white-label royalty department for record labels, independent publishers, distributors, and management companies. Founded by third-generation music executive Mark Spier, it pairs enterprise-grade royalty software with hands-on accounting to process statements, register catalogs, handle mechanical and master-use licensing, and pay rights holders accurately - all on a flat fee rather than a commission, so clients keep their earnings.

Mark Spier is the founder and CEO of Royalty Solutions Corp, a New York royalty-accounting and copyright-administration firm whose tagline is 'you make the Music, we do the Math.' A Cornell-trained computer scientist with a Columbia MBA, he spent early years at IBM and as a VP at Credit Suisse before taking over Memory Lane Music Group in 2003, the family publishing house his grandfather started in 1923. In 2009 he founded Royalty Solutions to bring transparency and software to the messy business of paying songwriters, building proprietary systems like the TuneLicensing mechanical-licensing engine and a client royalty portal.
