It is now more common for an artist to enter into a music publishing deal before a record deal. Once a publisher is involved there is then one more member of the team who can give real help in securing the record deal. The existence of the publishing deal may give the record company added confidence. (引用元:http://www.leeandthompson.com/MusicGuide/Chapter2_Part1_1.html)
Whether major or indie, publishing deals can be especially good for artists who aren’t ready or don’t want to sign to a label.
