Take back the control in your acting career with these five game-changing strategies to stop your excuses, get noticed among the masses, create brand recognition, and build lasting industry relationships.

It's time to create your legacy and do more of what you love....act.

Hey there! I'm Jodie Bentley.

After graduating from NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts with a BFA in acting, I floundered for 8 years trying to piece my acting career together. My results were ok… but random and rare.

I knew there had to be a better way, so I read every freakin’ business book I could.  Within 6 months, I got my first theatrical agent, booked an Off-Broadway show and joined Actor's Equity. 

And now as an actor, producer and narrator, I have over 170+ credits including projects with Netflix, Hulu, ABC, CBS, Apple TV, FOX, TIFF, Cannes & more.

All that happened because I took business principles that work in the real world and morphed them for the actor. Everything changed.

These holistic actor branding and marketing systems are what I’ll teach you to get the acting career YOU want.

So…welcome. It’s time for you to become an industry insider too.

Let's be real, those probably aren’t new thoughts, feelings or beliefs. They are 100% correlated with your results.

Those same thoughts, feelings and beliefs will continue to be there OR you can change them to change your career.

 If your branding is unclear, then you’re making your acting career much harder than it has to be.  After all, a confused mind always says no.

Do you say that you’re bad at following up with casting directors? Do you realize the importance of reaching out but don't know what to say?
