Agent Cover Letter Templates
Did you know that your cover letter is the single most important part of the submissions process when you're looking for an agent?

It's true because it's the first thing they see. Your headshot, resume, and reel won't matter if they never get past your cover letter.
From your cover letter alone, agents can tell:
- How easy you'll be to work with
- How professional you are and whether you'll appreciate their hard work
- How much potential they think you have (meaning whether you'll be worth signing)
- Whether you'll be a hardworking actor or one who just sits on the sidelines (while they do the work)
When submitting to commercial agencies, most actors write out huge, in-depth cover letters talking about every possible accomplishment they've had, every credit they've been in, and a million reasons why they should be signed. But this is a mistake.
Why? Because they forget to focus on the only thing that really matters: What's in it for the agent?
A great cover letter takes all that (and more) into account, and it all starts with the subject line, opening, and even the length of the letter.
I've distilled everything you need to know about cover letters into two simple templates and accompanying video. These templates have been proven to work over and over again for the actors who use them.

- What do they most want and how can I give it to them quickly?
- How can I instantly get them to trust me and give me a chance?
