as i know, it depends if it's a temporary jingle (for a campaign) or the sound logo of the company...

eole its gonna be for a cleaning company and they plan to use it in they're websites and eventually in commercials n on radio if the company has good results, so it's gonna be like a slogan... and part of their identity.
thanks for quick responds |

How big is the cleaning company?
What's the PRS revenues like in your country?
Who reserves the rights?
Have you been approached by the company it self (i,e, someone you know, works there), or an advertising company? (most likely).

Whatever deal you get, try to keep the copyright. Try to make a deal that each time they use the thing they have to ask for licensing right. a certain amount of money for the right to use it on the website another amount if they use it on a commercial on tv, etc...
If you don't make it like this and hand over the rights to them, ask for a lot more money. But as said above it really depends on the size of the company, and like i said above what kind of deal they want.  On 2011-03-08 23:13, moki wrote:

For a small company that gets air time on small private TV stations, I'd start from 2k upwards.
