# Sales Agent Agreement

### Under this type of agreement, a sales agent acts as the film owner’s agent in consideration for a commission. Thus, there is no grant of rights from the owner to the sales agent.&#x20;

However, if the sales agent is exclusive and has the authority to enter into licenses for and on behalf of the owner, **then the sales agent resembles a licensee.**&#x20;

Because a sales agent does not pay an advance to the owner, and because the sales agent’s distribution expenses are typically relatively low, the sales agent is usually entitled to a relatively **low distribution fee.**
