PROJECT MANAGEMENT:
Are you looking for help releasing an album, but you don’t have a team?
Do you want someone to manage all of the variables so that nothing falls through the cracks?
We can do that! We love helping artists release albums. We will help you create a timeline, a budget, and find/hire/negotiate with team members (like publicists, radio promoters, digital marketers, and more). Then we will manage those team members, make sure that all deadlines are met, and ensure everyone on your team is working hard for you. Essentially, we’ll step in as your managers throughout the album release. Reach out below and we’ll get back to you to schedule a call to talk about your album.

I often say to anyone who will listen that working with Erin Anderson has been the equivalent to ditching a bicycle for a motored vehicle.

TESTIMONIALS:
“Erin’s savvy, entrepreneurial approach to releasing independent music changed the course of my release plans; my scattered vision became cohesive, my inconsistent branding became clearer, my approach to merchandising, braver. And best of all, she’s in it for the music.”- Mary Bragg
“Working with Erin was one of the best decisions I've made in my music career! She helped me feel confident and competent in my own artistry while giving me the practical tools I needed to take bigger leaps professionally.”- Spencer LaJoye
“Erin Anderson of Olivia Management has the heart of a teacher. Even with my degree in Music Business from Berklee and my experience at small record labels, I had no idea how to manage or develop myself as an artist and I knew needed some help. Erin has walked me through branding, social media management, and one album release with another one due out this year. With all her advice we were able to fully fund our PledgeMusic Campaign and land spots in a number of notable press outlets. With this small arsenal of successes in hand, we have been connected to higher quality performance opportunities. I have described my experience working with Erin as having a music business personal trainer.” - Melissa Wright, Mink’s Miracle Medicine
“I often say to anyone who will listen that working with Erin Anderson has been the equivalent to ditching a bicycle for a motored vehicle. Her knowledge, insight and music industry savvy have saved us a boatload of time and tinkering, and have advanced our career quicker than anything we have tried to date. We released an EP with her guidance and are now releasing our first full-length album with her continued support. We recommend her wholeheartedly not only because she is a crazy-good coach but also because she is an amazing human.” - China Kent, AlrightAlright
“I have been a consulting client of hers for less than a year and she has helped me grow leaps and bounds in my music career. Through her organizational skills, wise guidance, and decades of music business experience she has helped me exceed my goals in under a year. 10/10 Erin is simply the best.”- Sandy Bailey
"Working with Erin during the release of my music has been extremely helpful! She taught me that you can't just put music out into the world without a plan! Her insight has truly made a difference in the way that I plan for and release music and for that I am truly appreciative!!"- Brittany McLamb
“I first came to Erin with a finished album, and no idea what I was doing. Erin not only helped me release an album, but taught me how to release an album with strategy and purpose, and most importantly, how to get it heard.”- J Marco
'I am still not quite sure how I managed to be so lucky to find Erin. I found her shortly after recording my first EP. I was the epitome of an ‘emerging artist’ and had no idea how to go about releasing an album. Because of Erin’s step-by-step guidance and coaching, I was able to use this project to jumpstart my career. She helped me create a unique brand for myself, build a strong online presence, align with an amazing publicist, and ultimately broaden and expand my audience. In the end, the work we did helped me create a wonderfully supportive community around myself; as well as, a solid foundation that I am so proud of and excited to keep building upon. Erin is incredibly knowledgeable about the music industry and her advice is invaluable and proved itself correct every step of the way. Releasing a project as an artist is a very vulnerable process and there is no one who could’ve made me feel more empowered than Erin did and continues to. I owe so much of my recent artistic and personal growth to her. Because of Erin’s support, encouragement, and industry wisdom, I now see myself as a legitimate artist and for that I am forever grateful.' - Michelle LeBlanc
