Ok so I have seen quite alot of producers getting managers that send out their tracks to get checked out by more serious artist's. and helping them get majr placements.. i was just wondering how you even go about getting that?
There are tons of ways to go about getting placements, and they mostly resolve around creating songs which can be placed. Once a song has definite connections with people, the song's creator will be sought out. Think of a manager the same as you would a store manger and you'll get the idea of what manager does.
Without the retail store, there's no need for a manager.
The way to gaining management by building a business for yourself. Apparently, a lot of people see the structure of music business like, "If I had this I would have that..." Thinking about what you don't have will only lead to more of not having what you want.
Here's the truth.
The kinds of managers that have actual music connections are looking to work with artist who can demonstrate professionalism on a level that most people don't reach. Your chances of getting placements are better once you can put yourself in the right places at the right times. Also, you need to be able to conduct business in the first place; and by this, I mean you need to be able to process more payment types, other than cash, when it comes to contract terms and agreements.
I recommend that you establish a connection with people directly, become know for having some of the best parties, and focus on keeping artist entertained. Instead of trying to create tracks from scratch in front the artist, come to sessions prepared with instrumentals that an be customized to their taste. Charge by the hour so that time isn't wasted, because if they could do it themselves they wouldn't need a producer. Network with people who are into video, photography, fashion, and all things needed for displaying personal image.
Create music that people can use for what they're into and you'll have no problem getting placements. And, if you're doing this already, you should start marketing yourself online using social media and a personal website. Get an online response to your music, then take the songs that get the best responses to businesses that advertise using the style of music you make.
