This is a really good idea. I know nothing about these guys, so I can't evaluate whether there's true success or just marketing, but the concept is great.
One of the dirty secrets about Corporate America is that "your manager" is really only a manager. What do I mean? A manager is someone hired to make decisions pertaining to a financial asset someone else owns. Actors have managers who handle their reputations and Hollywood careers. Business owners have managers to run the day-to-day. Wealthy people have financial managers. In a corporate setting, you just have a boss.
In a typical company, your manager is the firm's manager and your overseer. Important distinction.
Talent really doesn't have representatives.
Freelancing is the place to start with this, because they know they're on their own, whereas corporate denizens are still somewhat clueless, but I'd like to see this idea branch out. I hope it succeeds.
