Management company services
Additional Commercial Development Capacity for Your Artist Roster.
Engage David Quinn to work across selected artists on your roster, alongside your team, to identify, develop and execute commercial opportunities.
The opportunity
More commercial development, without changing your structure
Management teams are asked to deliver creative, operational and commercial outcomes at once. Commercial development, such as sponsor research, partnership proposals and revenue planning, is often the first thing to be squeezed when the calendar fills up.
A single point of contact for commercial development lets your managers stay focused on the artist while opportunities are researched, prepared and progressed in the background, within the authority you set, and with respect for every existing relationship and contract.

Working principles
Built to earn a manager's confidence
Your team stays in control
Commercial activity is carried out in coordination with the artist and their management. Approaches are made, and terms negotiated, only within the authority you agree.
Existing relationships are respected
Existing management, agent, label, publishing and brand arrangements are mapped first, and opportunities are assessed against them.
Confidential by default
Client information, commercial proposals and unreleased opportunities are treated confidentially, subject to agreed confidentiality arrangements and applicable law.
Realistic and measurable
No results are guaranteed. Activity is planned, tracked and reported so your team can see what is happening and decide what to do next.
Get in touch
Discuss how this could work for your roster.
A confidential introductory conversation is the simplest way to explore fit, scope and approach.
Every introductory conversation is confidential. We work alongside your existing management team and respect existing relationships and contractual arrangements.
