3 Artists Told Me This in 24 hours
I speak with artists every day, and this week 3 of them said the same thing… all within 24 hours: They’re feeling stuck.
Know what they have in common? They all have managers.
But their managers aren’t delivering. Here’s the deal:
Having a manager isn’t a magic wand. Just because you sign one doesn’t mean you’ll be blasted into the stratosphere.
Ask yourself:
👉 Why do I even want a manager?
👉 What do I really expect them to do?
👉 Do I want to give someone a cut of everything I make — before I’m even profitable?
Managers don’t build brands. They manage momentum. If you don’t have that yet, there’s not much to manage.
That’s where I come in — to help you build something worth managing.

If you want a manager one day, focus on this today:
Build your brand — give people something to connect with
Create consistent content — stay visible and relevant
Treat your career like a business — not just an art project
You don’t need a manager. You need momentum.
Let’s build it. Together.
