I like the way you switched if to (when) speaking it into existence is the key
Very informative. Don't forget to set up your LLC or whatever route you choose so you can claim your expenses otherwise your artist is just an expensive hobby. You would be amazed how many artists I know that don't save their recents. Also, you and your artist have to click. Other than their family and their homies, you are one of the few people the artist will trust. Trust is the key. You also have to be strong enough to put your feet down and not be afraid to tell them cold hard truth. Tough love.
TeaTime4 Akane great tip thank you

@@legendarykandjohnson I know so I invested in artists so they would get paid as well as get their expenses converted. Thx to my accountant I received a great ROI.
Somebody asked me to be their manager and this was so helpful to me. Thank you 🙏🏽
No problem! Good luck!
It’s Raiya Jaee hi how are you ? are you still seeking and looking for new talent ?
I'd like to act in different tv series and have a main role in a show. But if i wanna make it, i'm seeking for a good manager, that is trusting, somebody Who is out to help people, and not someone Who is only out for money. Someone that tells you to be yourself and help develop your talent.

Thanks 🙏🏽
Thanks man!!!
Hey Derrick good job on most tips.
Additionally I suggest a course on Project management.
This covers:
Planning
Initializing
Executing
Minitoring and controlling
Closing
A good manager wears many hats however, plan the work and work the plan.
Example: in planning and in executing there is a lot of Risk Management involved. Such as "what do I do if something happens?" . Then you plan for the "what if" scenario.
Also as a manager, comes negotiating, finance $$$ and many other aspects.
I was a musician a while back and had to do a lot of leg work on our own. So having a background in music or if you play music truly helps when you work together with the artists as this comes in handing when marketing.
Thank u fam

What kind of education do you think a music/artist manger should have?
You can still be a manager without having to do anything with the music videos cant you because i wanna be someones manager but dont have a clue about the technology side but everything else you said i can do and will theres a artist i have found that i want to manage in the rap world
hi my name is Ryan and Ive been a manager for a friend and yes I had no experience in managing an artist ,my friend has been the Cape town Music Industry for years before we met... He has been on tv and had a mixtape completed at that time... basically I learned everything I know through him. So recently an ex friend of our hip hop group comes to me years later asking me to be her manager... We have a history together,she was a background vocal... Today she wants to go solo and I havent been active for years and im afraid of making the same mistakes again how do I avoid being run into the ground again
?
i dont agree on everything. When it pertains to the Artist, the artist has to be willing to be lead as well cause sometimes Artist try do it there way or the highway. dont forget that in the beginning managers are investing time in you cause they believe in you so dont trat managers as if you (artist) doing them a favor.
Good point
Thanks bro really good advice 👍 I just got my first artist I have a lot of faith that she going to the top l don't have a lot of money, but I have a lot of hustle in me.network.
Hey @marquita congrats on everything...lol I couldn't just say one. But your comment sums it up, on how I move! If you like we can change info and connect

Lukas Villard What type of artist are you looking for?
I’m 16 and wanna do this for a living been around businesses my whole life my family owned many from generations been around artist I know how to book an artist also book a venue I wanna get into this but not sure how
I am an artist and i would love to work with you.I think my music describes this phase that I am in very well but not in a cheap way. it's more organic.
in my opinion, I have a lot to improve but I think my songwriting ability is very good.
I think my sound and style will be influential.
I am still working and searching for my sound and because of that I have lots of different style tracks but I hope you will like it.

Madae Not Mahdae where are you located?
I want to work with bands but I don't know exactly what's the right job for me. I like to help more as an assistant, you know? Like, being there on tour, getting stuff for them , helping when bad things happen, etc (I don't know how to explain it and English is not my first language so sorry for that). I'm starting nursing college now, but I don't know if that helps.
Sounds like you want to be a manager.
Julliana Paulino can you promote my husband he is a Michael Jackson impersonator I cant afford to pay upfront hus name is Aaron Jackson lives in Vegas
Julliana Paulino his name is Aaron Jackson on Facebook and he is in Vegas
how are you interesting points you made I was approache and ask to become a manager for a family member I dont know nothing about it but willing to learn I guess my question is should business mix family?
I think that's a personal opinion. Sometimes mixing family and business can go incredibly wrong, but sometimes it goes extremely well and creates opportunities for your whole family. Just depends on what you feel comfortable with in my opinion.
Luis Marrero If you believe in their talent more than them
If not
You will become envious over time
How could we communicate?
Do you have any tips on finding a manager because I'm looking for someone to manage me and my brother group 2-Crucial
Check out this video bro czcams.com/video/5VlKabsscfA/video.html
What kind of group is it
When I was four, I decided I wanted to be a songwriter. At age six, If finally had managed to 150$ this very questionable electric guitar (I love her to this day :)). I was lucky enough to grow in a home filled with music instruments. I never had any interest into learning other people's songs at first. When I got in highschool I received a more traditional music education, but still, to me it felt more like acquiring new skills/languages that I could use on my own songs. I've tried semi successful efforts to start bands from age 8 to 12. At age 14 I finally found what would become my real band......musicians came and left while we were learning what meaning in a band meant but it allowed me to grow as a songwriter.....We could find the right singers for our band and the since I was writing pretty much all of the music the other band mates insisted I I become the lead singer/songwriter.....As much as I love to learn by myself, I chose to take a vocal coach for a white and it helped me become more secure about my voice. Slowly things fell into places. I'm from around Montreal and we ended up recording 2 EPs, 1LP, play around 250 - 300 shows, shoot 2 music videos, etc.
Unfortunately, for certain reasons, the band ceased to exist at that point. I then went through a series of very serious health related problems, some of them lead me to (legally) use painkillers. Losing the band, being in poor health condition and needing to take opiate addiction under control (I am not addicted to anything, but it was a tough task) were hard to do but I never stopped writing songs. I'm now 31. I have very talented friends willing to help me with the record I have in mind.......but my question at this point is, how do I build a fan base? Is there people out there still listening to what I can do? What should my next move be?
I know it's a long message but if you happen to read it, I'd very much love to have your take on this. I've heard "follow your dream and somehow things will happen" to many times. I want to make things happen in this ever changing scene.
Thanks for reading and answering if you happen to do so.
Best regards,
Whats usually the compensation for a manager?Thanks.
That depends on how big your role is for the artists. Typically between 10-20%
Say you’re managing an artist and he wants to perform at a certain venue. You make some calls and they tell you the price. Do you as the manager pay or does the artist? All assuming you’re not signed to a label yet.
You call venues and they tell you the price to perform or rent the place? If just to perform, you might be better off just partnering with a promoter, renting the venue, and throwing an event yourself (while allowing the artist to perform). That might have more upside than paying to perform at some one else's event. However, you have to show the value of the artist performing at the venue if you want to avoid coming out of pocket. If there is no value for them, then you or the artist will pay (depending on your relationship or what's in the contract, if you have one)
Darius....I apologize I thought you said Derrick
It's no problem bro. Glad I was able to help!
What if your not popular and don't know people in the music industry
how do you get started and how to find the artist to manage?
unumnut 2 soundcloud,youtube,datpiff
unumnut 2 It's better if you get an artist that performs in a genre of music you like. Find an artist that is so good you want to buy their music and see them successful
It's easy to find an artist to manage but some are not cooperative
Online people have hyped up the do it yourself dreams with pretend success
So artist are arrogant in thinking they don't need a manager
Are you still looking for an artist?
I need a manager
How mannagers make money during all this efforts and support and public relations?
They make a % of whatever the artist makes. If the artist makes $0 - the manager makes $0. Generally, the managers have jobs or other artists bringing in money during the early stages of working with an artist
Gio Biocampo When the manager secure paid gigs for the artist
They get a commission

I’m trying to be a manager and I like your content but the manager can’t want shit to pop more then the artist.. the manager can make the artist or the artist can make the manager

Fully develop an artist is complex project A) Cost management B) PR, Marketing = Expensive and time consuming investment. Manager should posses smart skill set. U can not learn management skills as u go, that is false! By simple giving "Jo its amazing" is not well worked out strategy. U don't need a degree, but you need education and experience to manage an artist. Where shell it come from? A thin air? I call it education and + if you are not a talented musician yourself by nature and working only on intuition principle as a music manager...oh man you won't stay below the surface for too long in today's competitive market. wait...what did you say? Anybody can do it? Painful to listen. U mostly failed to give valuable advices. CZcams is full with such catchy videos.
There are tons of stories on the internet from managers that had no experience and helped an artist make it "big". PR & marketing doesn't have to be expensive or time consuming. And yes, anybody can do it.
Hi. 🙂 Please, let us pray together. Dear God who art in heaven hallow be thy name thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil for thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever in Jesus Christ's name we pray amen.
Terrible video. No further explaination of points. No examples or current examples.
Very vague
How much does a successful music manager make ? Let’s say you were the manager for Lil Xan or something ? ... cheers 🏴
VN ZY there is no specific amount
Pay is based on what you can do
