Why Can’t You Land an Agent - And What You Can Do About It
Ever feel like getting an agent is this impossible gate you just can’t unlock - no matter how many emails or postcards you send?
You’re not imagining it. Landing representation can feel like the hardest part of the acting journey, and when the silence drags on, it’s easy to start doubting your talent.
But the problem isn’t you - it’s the way most actors approach the process.
In this episode, you'll discover:
– Why most actors feel invisible to agents (even if they're talented)
– The emotional trap of waiting to be chosen (and how to break free)
– What agents are really looking for before they say yes
If you're ready to finally get noticed and take control of your career, press play now.
