Although both agents and managers are personal 
representatives, they each serve distinct functions. 
Sometimes an artist may want a combination manager/agent to 
pay a joint, and sometimes smaller, commission to one 
person for performing both duties. However, in some states, 
it is illegal for a person to be both an agent and a 
personal manager. Further, agents and managers may or may 
not be required to be licensed depending on the state. For 
example, in New Jersey, both agents and managers must be 
licensed.  
Agents and managers play important roles in artist 
development. As such, they can be vital to the success or 
failure of an artist. Therefore, you should look for a 
number of things when signing anything with an agent or 
manager.

Talent agent is those who can do and personal manager is 
those who must do .......
