As a performer you need to sell yourself like any other product on the market. You need a marketing strategy, packaging and branding. These 45 minute one to one sessions are an opportunity to discuss the effectiveness of your personal brand.

Bring along your existing marketing material. e.g. CV, headshot, showreel, covering letter, personal website, Spotlight and Casting Call Pro account information, plus a performance piece (monologue of no more than two minutes in length). Darren will help you identify ways that your brand can be strengthened and fine tune your marketing strategy.
