COMMERCIAL FILM, TV, & THEATRE
An Artist Manager, (also known as an Talent Manager, Band Manager or Music Manager), is an individual or company who guides the professional career of artists in the entertainment industry. We work on behalf of groups or artists to promote the artists' careers and help operate their business affairs. Our job is to secure the best work for our clients, and for the best fee.
Services include negotiating contracts and fees, finding and booking events and venues that match our artist's career strategy, advising on career decisions, publicity and promotion, helping you on career decisions every step of the way.
At VIP, many of us have gained knowledge by promoting our own talents, and have worked our way up to the role of Manager, through our own experiences in the industry. A manager’s role today must be to contribute more to the artist’s career and financial bottom line than the artist can do alone.
Our Artist Managers keep up to date with what's happening in the industry, and will spend a lot of time establishing and maintaining relationships, using contacts to source work for our clients. We will also promote our clients' work, and will often be involved in liaison during the performance and/or production process. VIP may also organize and negotiate contracts for release and publishing, and communicate with the press.
