Managing a band is a totally rewarding job. Imagine being part of the music tours and the success stories that come after. As a band manger, you do not just act as the “go to person” for all the deals, but more so as the expert and guardian for the whole band. As soon as you affix your million dollar signature on the contract, you have not just entered into a deal, but have acquired the responsibility to assist them and guide them in their careers. Consider them as your adopted children; you will be with them all the step of the way.
As you work your way up in giving a name to the band you are handling, problems will arise and have concerns or issues that will question your credibility. Prepare yourself with the possible headache that you might experience. We are not saying or implying that handling a band is not for the faint of heart, or saying that artists or musicians are difficult to handle. The reality here is that as you go closer in reaching the fame and glory, there will be misunderstandings and demands that you need to handle. If you are ready for the unending challenges in band management then you are on the right track and I suggest that you continue reading.
