Build the Career You Know You’re Meant For

A 3-Month, Hands-On Mentorship for Artists and Managers Who Want

Clarity, Strategy & Real Momentum.


For the first time ever, I’m opening a private mentorship through The Manager’s Playbook, a small, high-touch program where I personally work with artists to build structure, sharpen their strategy, and create real movement in their careers.

This isn’t another course.


This is execution, accountability, and real guidance, the same systems I’ve used for over 15 years with Grammy-nominated and platinum-selling artists.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of your next move… this is where everything becomes clear.


Introducing: The Manager’s Playbook Mentorship

This mentorship is designed to help you stop guessing and start executing with real intention. We look at where you are, identify your biggest opportunities, and build a strategy that actually works in today’s music landscape.

Inside the program, you’ll get:

  • Weekly live mentorship calls with Mauricio

  • Personalized strategy for your release plan, brand, content, and audience growth

  • Feedback on your music, visuals, and marketing approach

  • Clear systems to manage your career with confidence

  • Direct access for questions, support, and strategic decision-making

  • Templates and tools used by established managers & teams

  • A roadmap tailored specifically to your goals


What You’ll Walk Away With

  • A defined brand identity that cuts through

  • Step-by-step systems for marketing, momentum, and growth

Meet Your Mentor

I’m Mauricio Ruiz, Artist Manager, Host of The Manager's Playbook podcast, Co-Founder of Mad Ruk Entertainment, and Founder/CEO of 8 Til Faint.

For over 15 years, I’ve worked with Grammy-nominated, Juno Award-winning artists, partnered with labels, built global content campaigns, and led teams behind billions of streams. I’ve seen the business from every angle, indie, major, artist, manager, executive.

And after years of sharing insights through The Manager’s Playbook, I’m opening my playbook in a more personal way, to help a small group of artists build clarity, confidence, and career momentum.

If you’re serious about your career, I’d love to work with you.


Final Call: We’re only opening this round to 10 artists.
Because mentorship matters more than scale.
