So... Valentine's Day is here... woohoo... you survived last year.. and the holidays... look at you... good on ya! Lets recap last year... and a little strategizing for this one... ready? Your tools are all up are up to date right? most updated photos.. that actually look like you? If i am looking at your Actors Access and I see the most recent photo was from a few years ago... that is not going to work. I know.. you think you look the same... I got it... but guess what

Don't bullshit your reps…I know… it sounds like a simple thing…and you know you may not ever realize that you are doing it.

So one thing that is really important to ME is communication.   I like to know what is going on… we need to keep your calendar (for what I would hope would be obvious reasons).   So if you are going to work on stuff and not tell your reps so that you don’t have to pay them or get them involved - that is not a good relationship…. It is one that is based on being sneaky.   And that just does not work for me.   If you can’t have an open relationship with your rep… you have the w

Hey...I get it....you need to use it as some sort of guide line....some reason to get your shit together...an excuse to tell all your friends who do not work in this biz why you are so freaked out and full of anxiety right now....
