Kingfisher Collections launches

PRESS RELEASE 26/07/12, for immediate release

New service launched by Golden Goose and Fisher Forensic Kingfisher Collections will manage royalty admin for agencies and licensors. Boutique brand licensing consultancy Golden Goose has partnered with forensic accountants Fisher Forensic to develop a royalty administration service for busy licensors and agencies. Called Kingfisher Collections, the new service offers to manage the chasing and collation of royalty reports and payments so that brands can focus on their licensing programme without losing control of their revenue collections. “Kingfisher Collections provides a seamless, professional point of contact so that licensors and agencies can concentrate on sourcing licensees, developing new products and marketing their brand to retailers without worrying about how royalties are collected,” said Adam Bass, Director of Golden Goose who has helped develop the service. Licensors and agencies using Kingfisher Collections will have the convenience and focus of a trusted accountancy firm handling the entire royalty collection process: from issuing invoices and chasing for statements and payments to generating financial and performance reports. “It’s very easy for licensors and agencies to lose track of the royalties and for the reporting to get out of kilter with the original licensing agreement,“ explained Rafi Saville from Fisher Forensic. “This can lead to licensors collecting the wrong amounts and store up potentially nasty surprises for a royalty audit.” “Most licensing departments are surprisingly small,” Added Bass, “and Kingfisher Collections will offer a seamless service so that licensees don’t even know they are talking to a firm of forensic accountants.” For more information about the service please visit www.kingfishercollections.co.uk Ends
