Talent manager

An person who supervises the professional careers of artists working in the entertainment business is known as a talent manager. This position is also known as an artist manager, band manager, or music manager. The duties of a talent manager include the supervision of an artist's day-to-day commercial operations, as well as the provision of advice and guidance to the artist on topics relating to their profession, as well as on long-term goals and personal choices that may have an impact on their career.

A person who is responsible for the recruiting and management of personnel inside a firm is referred to as an artist manager.

The functions and obligations of a talent manager, in addition to the commissions to which the manager is entitled, are subject to some degree of variation from one industry to the next. For instance, the responsibilities of a music manager are distinct from those of managers who provide guidance to performers, writers, or directors. A manager may also assist artists in locating an agency, or in helping them choose when it is appropriate to part ways with their existing agent and deciding whom to choose as their new agent. In most cases, managers are only able to informally develop links with producers and studios and do not have the capacity to negotiate contracts on their clients' behalf; however, talent agents have the authority to strike agreements on their clients' behalf.
