All of this has you wondering why you chose to be an actor in the first place.
When I graduated from NYU Tisch School of the Arts with a BFA in Acting, I had no clue what I was doing when it came to the business side. I floundered for 8 years trying to piece an acting career together. My results were ok… but random and rare.
I was tired of not knowing what to do to get to the next level, so I read every freakin’ business book I could get my hands on.
Then the light bulb moment - I'm a product AND I'm a business owner! I took branding and business principles that worked in the real world and morphed them for an actor. 🤩
Then I built my actor brand and acting business authentically, smartly & holistically...everything changed.
Within 6 months, I got my Actors Equity card, my first theatrical agent, an Off-Broadway show, and I got to do the cast recording with Stephen Schwartz. And it’s only grown from there with multiple theater gigs, commercials and working for Netflix, Hulu, ABC, CBS, Apple TV & more.
I finally had the info I didn’t know I needed to know. Now you will too. ❤️
