You’re Only One Person

There’s only so much you can do a day. One of the most challenging aspects of being a musician is managing your time and skillsets. Most artists get stuck because they don’t even consider hiring help. While it may seem daunting if your income isn’t predictable, you’ll reach your goals at a much slower pace if you’re trying to do everything on your own—and that’s if you’re even able to do it. Unfortunately, there are biases in the business against nepotism or self-management when considering artists for opportunities. By delegating time-consuming tasks to an expert, you’ll be investing in concrete steps to take your career from A to B.  

 

A Manager Wants You to Make Money

reputable manager isn’t looking to take your money and run—they want you to succeed. An artist manager’s income is directly tied to your success, and they understand ways you can earn money that you may not know yet. Typically, a manager will take in the range of 15% of your profits, or with a variable rate. So, they will do everything they can to ensure your music is being listened to, that shows are being booked, and that you’re making the right connections. As your career grows, so will theirs.

 

Focus on Your Creativity

If you’re an artist, you probably love the time spent imagining and being creative, and your brain is attuned to explorative kinds of work. The systematic and strategic aspects of a music career can become burdensome and stressful for creative types. This is where your manager can step in to handle numbers, planning, and business details. You’ll be free to work on your craft without distraction, and you’ll both focus on what you do best.
