10 questions to determine if you ‘need’ a manager (with Scott Waldman)

Long Island, NY native Scott Waldman is what you might call a true renaissance man. The musician/artist manager/a&r executive and host of the weekly show Waldman Words, heard on Idobi Radio, has a lot on his plate, and he wouldn’t have it any other way.

Through his experience Waldman has learned a lot about the industry and the common mistakes many artists make as they attempt to establish themselves in this overcrowded space. Today we’re thrilled to share a collection of questions Scott has put together to aide artists in determining whether or not they truly ‘need’ to be seeking management at this point in their careers. You can find his input below.

1. Do you sell a hearty amount of physical merch at your shows and online?

2. Do you sell a hearty amount of digital merch?

3. Have you sold out several headlining shows in your area (to a higher number of fans than friends) at 300 capacity venues or more?

4. Have you performed several shows outside of your area that ended with more and more bigger and better shows?

5. Do you have a high six figure or low seven figure streaming track (SANS PAYMENT FROM A THIRD PARTY SHADY ASS COMPANY THAT WILL EVENTUALLY BITE YOU IN THE ASS) on Spotify or SoundCloud? The same question applies to views on a YouTube video.

6. Is the work on your plate so overwhelming that you physically can’t even? (trick question: The work never ends and you should leave the industry if you can’t handle behind the scenes work for yourself; you are always going to be your best ambassador)

7. Do you earn a living as a musician?

8. Do you have “industry people” knocking on your door or guitar cases?

9. Do you actively read books, blogs, and other industry articles daily?

10. Are you prepared to pay someone a percentage of your earnings to work for you?

If the answer to 1 or more of these is “no,” you do NOT need a manager. The right manager will eventually find you when more ducks are in a row. Don’t look for ‘em.

Tips For Negotiating Your Next Management Contract

Post author By James Shotwell
Post date August 4, 2015

Our friends at CDBaby ran this really great feature on negotiating management contracts that we are now sharing with you. We’ve probably shared the information below with dozens of artists in recent weeks, and we encourage you to do the same. We believe education is the key to success in music today.

A masterclass on music contracts

Attorney Steve Gordon is running a fantastic series on Digital Music News about music contracts — 11 different kinds of music contracts, to be exact.

Each article in the series dives into one of those types of contract (record deals, synch licensing, band agreements, management deals, etc.), and starts with the premise that there is no such thing as a “standard” agreement, but that negotiations tend to begin with a form set of terms.

Gordon says:

Often, there are two versions of a form agreement: one that represents the best interests of creators, including artists, songwriters, and producers, and one that represents the best interests of the companies that do business with them, such as record labels, publishers, and managers.

It’s important to understand whose interests are being protected in every aspect of your contract because, in Gordon’s words, “these parties typically have adverse interests.”

The management contract

In one of these posts, Steve Gordon breaks down two versions of a management contract (you can actually scroll through the contract and view his point-by-point commentary): the pro-MANAGER management contract and the pro-ARTIST management contract.

In “the old days” (the 20th Century), a manager’s primary goal was to get a band signed to a label (hopefully with a big advance), and to then act as a liaison between the label and the artist (advocating for the interests of the band).

Now that labels are way more risk averse and don’t want to sign acts until they’ve proven they can build a fanbase and earn money, the role of the music manager has changed dramatically.

Manager are now taking on many of the responsibilities of a label (securing distribution, working more closely with publicists, promoters, and booking agents, etc.). In some cases, more responsibilities means more items to negotiate in a contract. And, of course, all the old questions still need to be worked out too: who gets to make the decisions, who gets paid what, how do you hold one another accountable, and how long is the term of your agreement?

These are just some of the considerations to make when negotiating a management contract.

Inside Music Podcast #5 – Adam Lopez (New Age Media Management)

Post author By James Shotwell
Post date September 27, 2014

It’s back! We told you last month that our hiatus from podcasting had come to a close, and as proof we’ve returned exactly fourteen days days later with our fourth episode ready to be shared across the world wide web. We know a lot of you have asked about getting this show on iTunes, and we promise that is on our immediate to-do list. For now, you can stream and download this show, as well as the rest of the Inside Music series, on Soundcloud.

On this week’s episode, author and entrepreneur Adam Lopez joins us for a conversation on life, love, and the pursuit of a career in music. Adam and I have been digital friends for a little over a year at this point, but the recording of this podcast was the first time we had actually had a real conversation with each other. We build on our working knowledge of each other’s background to challenge one another when it comes to building a better future, and I like to think it’s that friendly back and forth that keeps us both motivated in our daily lives.

Adam knows this already, but I have been a longtime admirer of his work. He’s somehow younger than me, but already overseeing a company far bigger than anything I have been able to create. I respect his hustle and believe you will too after enjoying this conversation:

How Do I Attract The Attention of A Manager?

Post author By James Shotwell
Post date July 31, 2014

Hello and welcome to the final regular content day of the work week. You may been too busy to notice this, but today also happens to be the final day of July, which was one of our busiest months to date. We’re thankful for all you’ve given us the ability to accomplish, and we’ve decided to say goodbye the hottest month of the year with a double set of guest posts from one our of favorite online music writers.

This blog exists to promote the future of the music industry, and to do that we need input from people like you and your music-loving friends. If you have any questions about the content in this article, or if you have an artist you would like to see featured on this blog, please contact james@haulix.com and share your thoughts. We can also be found on Twitter and Facebook.

One of the most common questions I am asked by people is how an artist can attract a manager, or, how to best pitch a manager that they are interested in working with.

Much like everything in this business there isn’t one simple answer and everyone’s process is different but here a few things I appreciate and a process that can be employed to connect with a manager (or any other music business professional).

1. Have great music. No one is interested in representing something they don’t LOVE. Find your sound and hone it, make it stand out. Everyone I know in the music industry gets pitches every week (if not every day), if you want to make an impression the music has to stand out.

2. Connect on social media. I tweet a lot. So do many other people in the music industry. Join in discussions, be friendly. You don’t need to push anything, the goal is just to get on people’s radar. But remember, as soon as you get people paying attention to your social media…they are paying attention to your social media.

3. Create some videos. The reality is, when most people decide to check out a band, their first move is to head over YouTube. Watching a video can tell me more about a band in 30 seconds than 30 min of searching text. You get the image, the sound, the feel and even see play count & engagement all in one place. It’s always worth having quality video content.

4. Send an initial e-mail. Include your story (short version), a few links to music (not attachments), and why you would be interested in working with the person you are pitching to. As our good friend Steve Rennie always says “If You Don’t Ask, You Don’t Get”!

One Extra note: Make sure you actually specify what you are looking for; emails that tell a story but don’t have a clear pitch get deleted every time.

5. Pick up the phone. Some people may disagree with me on this but, I don’t think there is anything wrong with placing a call. Ask if they got your e-mail; sell the story with a little more passion than the cold e-mail allows. Try to make a more personal connection.

6. Keep working, make a good name for yourself. Remember, at this point hopefully you have people paying attention to what you are up to. Promoters are always talking to agents, agents are talking to labels, labels are talking to managers and every other combination. Work hard, word will spread.

7. Send occasional notes. E-mail is great for this! When you drop a new single or video reach out! Pop in an another e-mail to the people you have talked with in the past. If you get a placement, send something friendly updating them on the project. Success breeds success and if you stay persistent you never know when the timing will make sense.

Remember there is no formula for this (hopefully these tips help), primarily you need build relationships and make “the ask” when the time is right! For that matter, if you build relationships well, and do impressive work, you may end up being on the other side of that ask!

BONUS TIP: If the manager (or any one in this industry) says “No” it means “Not right now”. Still take the time to say thank you. Still build the relationship. Still send occasional updates. Whatever you do, don’t just disappear when things don’t work out immediately.
