Re-Pro Membership Benefits:

A wide range of benefits is available to Guild members

Networking

As members, producers have an invaluable platform from which they can share views and experiences and encourage a flow of practical help and advice.

Telephone Hot Lines - Legal, Accounting and Financial Planning

The Guild has established three hotlines manned by experts who can answer questions on legal, accounting and personal finance issues. Members are entitled to up to one hour's free advice from the experts - who include lawyer Nick Rann of Rann & Co, accountant Neil Dyer of Dyer & Co and personal finance advisor Dave Parish of Carlton Financial Planning. All three have particular experience of the problems faced by people working in the music and media industries.

Open Forums

Informal meetings for members and their guests are held regularly, where industry luminaries are invited to field questions from the membership. The meetings help to establish links with the rest of the music industry so that the Guild's views and concerns are heard.

Special deals on equipment hire and discounts on new equipment, multitrack tape, master format tape and diskettes are available to members on production of their membership card.

Regular demonstrations of the latest technology are held at top recording studios, giving members an opportunity to look around the facility at the same time.

Advisory pamphlets providing expert advice on legal, financial and contractual issues relating to the music industry have been commissioned by the Guild and are available to all members.

Guild members are recognised as Associate Members of APRS and are entitled to all APRS benefits including specially reduced rates on technical and training papers.

The Guild's benefits programme is constantly under review and open to ideas from members regarding benefits they would like to see included. The Guild is currently working towards the introduction of discounts for group telephone users and also plans to introduce a member's health and pension scheme.
