As an artist manager, your role is to facilitate the success of the artist you’re working with. This can involve providing structure and support, such as helping with budgeting and finding contacts for PR and radio. It’s important to have strong relationships with industry professionals like labels, publishers, and agents, and to push them to do their job and achieve the artist’s goals. The key to success is always thinking about the next move and reflecting on the reasons behind each decision.
