” Most artiste managers here in GH are just errand boys, only very few are managing their artistes. Any manager who cannot generate at least 60% to your revenue stream in line with your businessplan if any is not worth your time as an artiste. Real artiste managers get the business done based on a strategic plan, ie getting booking agents, publishing deals, recording deals, endorsement deals, developing the said talents, financial management deals etc. They must be people with clout and connections in both the local and international music industry and we don’t have many of such in this country unfortunately,” he wrote.
