One of my clients recently said this to me: "I feel like I'm staring through a glass window at all the opportunities other actors are getting. It's like there's an awesome party going on... and I was never invited." Wow. On one hand, some actors feel like their soul is being crushed under the constant rejection they face in auditions. But on the other hand, what about the actors who don't even get auditions in the first place? Does anyone ever talk about them? You can be the best actor in the world, but if casting directors won't let you in the room to prove yourself, how are you supposed to get ahead? Are you destined to forever perform in unpaid indie productions or community theater, hoping one day the Goddess of Luck will shine her light on you? Is it really impossible to get ahead without being well-connected or having tens of thous:a:nd:s of social media followers? And is it really impossible to get booked if you have an agent who doesn't submit you... or worse, no agent at all? |

The Practical Performer shows you how to get more opportunities for legit productions by getting casting directors to notice, respect and start calling you in for auditions you're right for – even if you're still relatively new and don't have a complete "Actor's Package" yet. It's designed specifically for actors who either don't have agents or want to supercharge the results they're getting with their current agent, and will supplement the current work your already doing (workshops, intensives, and conservatory programs) so you start seeing real-world results from your training. Just imagine going from 1-2 auditions per month for unpaid indie projects... to 1-2 auditions per week for network-level, professional productions. It's possible to achieve all this without an agent and with just 2-3 hours of work each week... And it's even possible to actually enjoy the process (you don't have to become an expert on the "business of acting"). Don't worry – there's no awkward networking necessary or nagging emails to send to casting directors, and you won't need to spend thousands of dollars to shoot a high-end reel, create a fancy website, become an expert at social media, or attend endless casting director workshops. The Practical Performer is not just about getting you more auditions – it's about getting you the right auditions. Auditions for characters you'll LOVE playing, for roles that pay, and for roles you'll have the highest shot of booking. Since it's digital, you can take The Practical Performer from anywhere in the world and at your own pace. And you'll have lifetime access to the material so you can come back for a refresher anytime you want.

"Martin’s material helped me immensely. Prior to The Practical Performer, I was getting around one audition every month or two, and after just a few weeks of applying what I learned, that number jumped to 1-2 per week! It's still increasing – and I haven't even updated my headshot yet.
Originally I did not know what was keeping me stuck. The whole idea of learning to “market” myself felt awkward and overwhelming because I did not want to do things the wrong way and possibly annoy people or get my headshot posted on the 'Wall of Shame.' I’m happy to say that my acting career is picking up now, and I am auditioning much more regularly for roles I’m excited about. Thank you, Martin!" – Adormeisay Frazier, professional actress |

The Secret to a Successful Acting CareerWhy is it that some actors constantly find their career in a state of ups and downs, where one month they get 3 auditions a week... and the next three months they get none at all?
And why is it that other actors (who don't even have agents) just seem to get audition after audition, constantly and without fail? Is it luck? Their looks? Do they have "friends" in the industry? Or is there something else at play? Do these busy working actors just love marketing themselves? Or do they actually hate it but force themselves to do it? No. They don't spend their time on things they hate. Instead, they simply found a way to create opportunities for themselves by focusing on their strengths.
Sometimes we need to STOP going against the flow in order to become successful. Trying to do things we don't enjoy (like constant social media posting, never-ending casting workshops, or networking inauthentically) just because others tell us to or we think we should is often what keeps us stuck – because we're working against our strengths! Those things can actually hurt you in the long run because they suck time, energy, and attention away from auditioning, learning lines, and doing what matters most – acting. The Practical Performer is not a magic bullet solution to the perfect acting career, but it is a step by step process that shows you how to significantly increase the number of paid, professional auditions you get each month, and it shows you how to do it by creating a plan custom-tailored to your strengths (you'll build your plan in Module 1). It really is possible to have fun and enjoy the process of booking more acting work... but only when you do it right. At the end of the day, the secret to a successful acting career is consistency, and there's no better way to stay consistent than by doing what you love. Let me show you.
