The assistant: Modern music manager as the artist's COO
Your manager isn't your personal assistant. They're your Chief Operating Officer. Learn what they own and what they delegate.
Key Takeaways
Your manager is your Chief Operating Officer, not your creative director or your therapist.
They build strategy, control narrative, and coordinate your team so nothing falls through the cracks.
They delegate legal, booking, press, and accounting to specialists because no one person can do it all.
You split equity with them because they run the business while you run the music.
