Are you a new model or actor looking to establish a footing in Entertainment while still working a full-time job? Becoming a model or actor doesn't have to be a full-time job.

Many talent think they're only option for success is finding a modeling Agency or talent agency to represent them. If your plan is to start in entertainment, while still working a full-time job, an agency is not the answer.

In fact less than 5% of entertainers are represented by an agency.
