An alternative to the traditional model

Music, management and support in one coordinated system.

Mockingbird Lab combines commissioned music production, central management and professional playback as an alternative to the traditional model of using commercial music.

Commissioned production, automated schedules and central management provide better control over music programming and operating costs.

With the appropriate rights and usage arrangements in place, this approach may enable significant savings, including the reduction or absence of certain fees payable to collective management organisations.

We prepare a specific proposal and a comparison of total costs for your business based on the number of locations, production scope and terms of use.

For chains and business networks

Music, announcements and advertising. Across your network, from one place.

Mockingbird brings music programming, promotional messages and service announcements into one centrally managed system. We shape content and schedules around your business — for the entire network, a selected region, a group of branches or an individual location.

Announce a new offer, support a marketing campaign or share useful information with customers. Messages are integrated into the music programme according to an agreed schedule, without branch staff having to start them manually.

The right message at the right location

Different campaigns and announcements for individual regions, branches or zones within a site.

Schedules shaped around your business

Plan by campaign dates, days of the week, time of day and repetition frequency.

Music and communication in one programme

Your brand’s musical identity, advertising messages and announcements combined into a coordinated listening experience.

Support from production to playback

From audio message production and scheduling to player monitoring and technical support.

One brand direction. Content tailored to every location. Less operational work for your teams.
