As a general rule, managers take a percentage of all income generated by the artist in exchange for their management services. Commission rates typically range from 15-25% of the artist's gross income from: Recording royalties: Sales, streaming and licensing of recorded music.
An artist team can consists of many managers (personal managers, business managers, road managers, production managers/technical managers), a live/booking agent, a music publicist, a radio/streaming promoter, a music publisher, a entertainment attorney, and a music distributor.
The core of the artist's team consists of publishers, record labels, concert promoters and booking agents. The Artist Managers are the grand overseer of that whole team, and they are the ones getting that band together in the first place.

Managers' commissions are typically between 15 to 20% of an artist's gross income. Whether it's 15% or 20% really depends on the level of the band and the bargaining power of each party. I've seen some net deals, but they are extremely rare. That being said, I always push for a net commission on merchandise.
