--- ### **Project G – Home Projects (Confidential Overview)** James has expanded **YouTube and Instagram production**, now with a video editor involved. However, there is still no **experimental or personal artist page**, which limits organic growth despite visible improvements. Overall social presence has grown from roughly **3–4/100 to about 10/100**, showing clear progress but still lagging behind comparable Toronto artists. Approximately six months ago, I assigned James the **SOCAN registration task**; as of this update, he remains **unregistered**. To move forward, I plan to establish a **publishing company**, complete the required paperwork, and list myself as his representative. Estimated time commitment: **40–50 hours**. Estimated immediate personal costs: **$400 CAD**. This step is necessary to ensure proper **royalty tracking, rights management, and revenue channels** for upcoming releases. --- Would you like me to merge this into your full Hot Applo project document ...
