Project Manager
This is for the Artist and/or label that has the talent and the backing but doesn’t have the relationships and/or the knowledge/experience in the Music business and doesn’t want to waste resources and time recreating the wheel.
There are other customized arrangements that can be set up based on more time involvement. I have been involved with many projects that included more time and more hands on services. I project manage for record labels and coordinate radio marketing programs, develop and managed recording artist careers for a fee (monthly) instead of a %. I call this Project Management. What this entails is me getting involved in a project and overseeing all aspects of the project including but not limited to:
- Development of a recording budget, overseeing the production of the album project in its entirety including finding a producer, hiring a studio/musicians, facilitating all paper work and copywriter/publishing issues, overseeing mastering of product, hiring a graphic artist overseeing the CD cover content.
- Development of a marketing plan/ radio plan. Overseeing the hiring of an appropriate independent radio promotion company, retail marketing company, Coming up with distribution and overseeing distribution.
- Video concept development, video production including an EPK. Development and execution video promotion.
- Putting together a team that will be the right fit for your project. Booking and finding an agent that will book your project. Tour management. All of these duties are or should be done either by a label, or a manager, and or a combination of both.
Because of the position of the Music Industry and because in the long run you should be in control of your career I have become a firm believer in the do it your self approach. Self-artist development is really the only way to have real control over your own career and I'm able to empower you to do this by giving you 25 years of experience and professional advice and industry contacts. This could be short term or long term. I charge by the month and it is based on how much involvement that you really need. (Ask for a proposal)
