Our Diamond Discovery
Co-writing Process

• Our Nashville based professional songwriter takes your song idea and will create the song for you, or collaborate with you by adding on to and/or completing what you have already started.

​

• The process includes both the lyrics and melody.

​

• The song will then be sent to you as a rough mix work tape. *note: this is not a demo

​

• As per industry standards, you own 50% of the writing and 50% of the publishing no matter how much you contribute to the song.

​

• 50% of the writing belongs to Corey Lee Barker and 50% of the publishing belongs to DITR Publishing (unless written with more than one writer, it is also split as industry standard).

​

• Upon completion and because you are a co-writer, you have the right to make any changes to the song *note: as changes could make the song more personal for you, there is a possibility it could limit its probability for Sync.

​

• Because DITR Publishing and Corey Lee Barker are a part of this work there is a huge possibility, if recorded to industry standards, it will be pitched to Sync. This is not a guarantee and is not what you are paying for, it’s an additional bonus to working with our professional songwriter and publishing company.

​

• There is a writing fee of $200 per song and on projects with 3 or more songs, we offer a discounted rate after the first song of $200, each additional song is $150 a song.

​

• This portion of our company was created to give songwriters and artists, like you, the opportunity to work with one of the pros! Congratulations and Happy Writing!
