Benchmark column fees and rights terms
Packaged know-how that tells an agent how to do a job well.
You might say…
“The editor asked what fee I expected and I had absolutely no idea what was normal for a monthly column in a trade publication.”
What it does
Benchmarks the going fee range and rights terms for a recurring column or syndication deal in a given publication type and market, so the author can anchor their ask.
Trigger: Use before negotiating a column or syndication deal to establish a realistic fee range and understand which rights terms are standard to retain.
I/O: Publication type + market + column format → fee benchmark range and standard rights terms with recommended asks
