The Management Agency, Inc. (TMA) is committed to providing the very best in management support for artists, ministries, and other businesses needing professional services so they can focus on what they do best. We have over 23 years' experience in church and ministry business administration, Christian education, and in the management and administration of tours (domestic & international), events of all kinds, non-profit consultation services, and artist administration and management.

We are currently scheduiing Music Industry Consultations for 2009. The consultation is especially designed for Christian artists needing help in determining their calling as a musician and how that can develop into a career path. Even if you think you can't afford a manager or don't need one right now, if you don't have a plan for success then you won't be successful.

Many times the artist (or band) is not sure if he/she needs a manager, a booking agent, or just a plan (or all three!). We have found that most of the artists who contact us need someone to map out a career plan for them and provide them with the specific steps they need to take to become successful in ministry and in the music industry. Our Music Industry Consultation gives us the opportunity to do this and much more!

Our Music Industry Consultation will at least provide you with a road-map to help you prepare for your future in the music industry! Click here for more information about these consultations. PLEASE NOTE: We are not currently accepting management or booking clients outside of the consultation process.

Eight Reasons You Need a Music Industry Consultation

8. Those 6,459 Myspace friends haven't resulted in you getting ANY gigs.
7. You have no funds for CD production and no idea how to raise money.
6. You have talent. You have time. You hate your job. You're frustrated.
5. You've tried to do everything yourself and discovered you're not God.
4. You want to schedule a tour this fall, but you haven't even found a good producer yet.
3. Your band decided to take the summer off and you're stuck trying to do everything yourself.
2. You are tired of wandering aimlessly through the maze of the music industry with no real direction or purpose.
1. A major record label passed on you because you don't have a professional management team (ouch!).
