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.
Gatekeeper and a spokesperson First of all, the manager is the public representatives of an artist. Managers reach out to partners and filter incoming offers on the artist's behalf. This part of the job involves taking a lot of small decisions, and most of the time the artists are not aware of them.
A managers job is to help their artist execute on their vision, not come up with one for them. A manager can explain in detail how the specifics of a deal will work, what things are realistic, and be your advocate in any negotiations. If you have no revenue, you have no business getting a business manager.
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.
A business management agreement formalizes the working relationship between a business and its manager. The contract will include information such as budgeting, the percentage of business revenue owed to the manager, and confidentiality requirements.
Good managers are patient. They are willing to work with an artist over a long career, executing their client's vision with a step-by-step plan. This requires developing intimate relationships with each client, relationships that take time to build.
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.
