No Adam mention here, but I just read this interesting article, " The Essential Role Of Artist Management In A Post-Label World" Some really thought-provoking points, I thought, and I really can see Adam's career being multi-faceted, with music as one part, but many other complementary aspects as well. James Barton and Brian Message are London-based music managers and representatives of the Music Managers Forum UK. They recently shared "Lessons from the Industry Formerly Known as 'The Record Business'", via the Harvard Business Review's Blog Network, addressing the emerging role of artist management in the careers of musicians as the focus shifts from selling records to building a business around multiple revenue streams.
"...managers must not "treat artists as commodities" and must "value the artist-fan relationship as highly as traditional rights."
"...every artist is a standalone business that generates income from multiple revenue streams"
"As the industry reforms around direct artist-to-fan relationships, managers must focus on "accepting consumer behavior and looking for as many ways as possible to monetize it." Link: www.hypebot.com/hypebot/2011/10/the-changing-role-of-artist-management-after-the-death-of-the-record-business.htmlHmmmmm, NoAngelPF,  Thanks for bringing that over. I've suspected something like that for quite some time. I've read a few points like this here and there, but really fascinating that they state it straight out like that. I mentioned before that I heard an interview with Trent Reznor on the radio about eight months ago and they were examining the changes in the music industry and asking him what he thought the solutions were, etc. The main thing he said was that building a relationship with a fanbase was the most important, in his mind. (IIRC) There really has to be an "intimate" bond formed to both protect the artist and advance him/her/them. When you develop a strong artist-fan relationship, you help ensure they a) they won't rip you off and b) they will be your core market and your word-of-mouth vehicles. That's huge when you're competing with products that may be staring from scratch with little or no advanced hype and no one anticipating the release of product. |
