''For information on Daniel Larson’s professional case managers, see [[Case Managers]]''{{PleaseSpreadTheMessage|The Daniel Larson Wiki, and the community at large, strongly advise AGAINST trying to manage Daniel. While Daniel desires help, he does not want anything that is of true meaning to him, wanting to remain delusional. As good as your intentions may be, It is best to not interact with him, as many have tried and failed.}}

[[File:NewClarkImage.jpeg|thumb|399x399px|Clark, one of Daniel's most infamous managers.]]
'''Management,''' or '''Managers''' is an umbrella term that described people or groups (who are oftentimes [[trolls]]) who had significant power over Daniel’s actions, and seek to influence Daniel under the guise of being a legitimate manager or management company. Some of the most infamous events in Daniel Larson history have been caused by these managers' influence. Managers are also known to have produced a generous amount of Daniel's [[Discography|non-studio recorded music]], though this appears to have ceased past 2022.

However, the management label is not to be confused with Daniel's [[Daniel Larson's case managers|''case managers'']], whose job it is to assist Daniel and provide resources for him. Rather, these managers were more often than not manipulative trolls who sought to humiliate Daniel in exchange for their own amusement, or for self-righteous goals.

It is worth noting however that not all “managers” are created equal. Some did genuinely wish to help Daniel, and had provided him with donations, necessities, and advice. However, these managers were in the minority, and most notable ones have quit due to Daniel refusing their help, and his behavior toward them. Managers are also often known for [[gatekeeping]] content of Daniel from the masses, as to not reveal their identities, or to keep Daniel's actions secret from the community to not cause outrage, ironically enough.

Following the April 30th arrest and the subsequent [[Second Jail Arc]], management of Daniel largely ceased (though [[Clark]] still retained contact with him over the phone). With his transfer to and subsequent institutionalization at MCFP Springfield, management has effectively come to an end, or at least will not return for a period of several months, if not years.

== Impact on Daniel ==
Managers first started to appear in 2020, the first of which that was being [[Rectus Abdominus#Graduate Records|Graduate Records]], a legitimate record company, though would not sign with him them. The first label he signed with can be identified as [[Fine Dining Records]], though it is unclear if they were truly the first. Groups, as well as individual people, tried to manage Daniel when he first began going viral on TikTok. Many of these early groups of people would invite him to [[Zoom Meetings|Zoom meetings]] or Discord calls, attempting to troll him and making Daniel say racial slurs. Many of these trolls had their names on Zoom or Discord set to well known record labels or talent agencies, and offered to sign him if he auditioned by doing irrational and disturbing things on camera.

Daniel, with [[Delusions|dreams]] of becoming a [[Music Career|famous music star]], would fall victim to these trolls frequently (though, his gullibility has significantly gone down over time). These meetings were often recorded, which has led to many infamous clips of Daniel doing irrational things in order to become a professional singer. These include but are not limited to saying racial slurs, explaining how he wants to legalize child molestation, or exposing his genitals for people to see.

Even so, what must be known is that not all managers have negative intentions when interacting with Daniel. Many managers, such as [[Ox]], LootBox Productions, and Bianka, have attempted to improve Daniel's life by supplying him with a steady flow of cash to spend on various expenses. However, what must be noted is that these managers are in the minority, due to Daniel evidently not wanting to accept the help given to him. A notable example of this is [[Bianka]], who quit after months of verbal abuse from Daniel and him denying any sort of help, opting to indulge in his delusions and deny anyone who said other words.
