Looking for an agent too soon is a mistake.

Every day, new actors email me a simple question:

"I'm just getting started and want know how to get an acting agent?"

Unfortunately, thousands of actors get scammed every year... by people pretending to be agents.

I don't want the same to happen to you.

Here's the reality: Legitimate, non-scammer agents are only looking for actors who already have at least a few credits on their resumes.

That's why, if you want the best chance of growing your acting career from scratch, you've gotta do some work on your own before agents and casting directors will consider you.

You should aim to get at least 3-5 speaking credits on your resume BEFORE you start searching for an agent.

Which brings us to the question:


"So how do I get consistent acting work... without an agent, credits, or reel?"


​If you want to build a successful career performing in films, TV shows, and/or theatre, you have to start by setting a realistic, achievable, initial goal:

Auditioning at least 1-2 times per week for paid projects.

Not only is this attainable, but auditioning this often is necessary if you want to start booking the number of acting gigs required to be taken seriously by industry gatekeepers.

When you're auditioning that frequently, you'll have a higher shot of booking those roles, and you'll also start improving your acting and audition technique.


​​​Hey, I'm Martin Bentsen and I help actors get unstuck.

​You might have joined an acting class, gotten professional headshots, or paid to shoot footage for your reel, but if you're being honest, has your career been growing? Or do you feel stuck getting just 1-2 auditions per month (or less)?

I know actors who've gotten stuck for YEARS, and no matter what they tried (and how much money they spent updating their materials), nothing changed.

Before they knew it DECADES had flown by... and they looked back wondering about all the opportunities that could have been.

Luckily, no matter how old you are, there's still time to build an acting career you can be proud of.

If you believe your true calling is to become an actor, then I believe it's your OBLIGATION to start putting yourself out there by building a SYSTEM that will help you start booking consistent acting work.

And the sooner you build that system, the sooner you can start reaping the rewards.


That's exactly why I created:

I built this 5-day course specifically for actors who are struggling to book real, paid speaking roles.
 
The course works even if you're not based in the USA.
Kickstart Your Acting Career shows you how to start getting auditions for real, paid speaking roles so you can build your resume and reel as quickly as possible.

​It's built specifically for actors who don't have connections, experience, credits, or footage yet.


  • You can take the course from anywhere in the world and at your own pace, since it's a pre-recorded program.
  • You'll receive each video lesson over 5 days, along with action steps to take for each lesson.
  • You'll get lifetime access, meaning if you can't watch the videos right away, you can come back anytime you want.

Kickstart Your Acting Career boils everything you need to know down to JUST the 5 exact steps necessary to start getting at least 1-2 auditions per week for legit, paid speaking roles in indie productions, so you can start building your resume as quickly as possible.

​​A Layout of the Course:

Kickstart Your Acting Career is broken into five video lessons, each about 10-20 minutes long. The videos will be sent to you over the course of five days.​
​

Day 1: The Most Critical First Step

  • Why casting directors don't care about experience as much as you'd think (and what they care about instead)
  • All the "to do's" you can ignore – find out all the things you can STOP doing and worrying about so you can put more time and attention where it matters
  • The most critical first step to getting "unstuck" in your acting career


​Day 2: How to Find Real Acting Gigs

  • A simple strategy to access real auditions right away, even if you're brand new & just starting out (with zero credits/experience)
  • How to build a successful online acting profile – learn the 5 necessary puzzle pieces that can be created right now from home, easily and for free
  • The most important thing NOT to include in your acting profile (new actors make this mistake all the time, and it causes casting directors to assume they're extremely inexperienced)


​Day 3: Mandatory Marketing Materials

  • How to save up to $2,000 in your acting career almost immediately, by avoiding the costly mistake so many new actors make (because they're told to spend money on these things by "industry experts")
  • How to get impressive photos onto your casting profiles right away, without spending any money or needing to do a lengthy photoshoot
  • A handy trick to get great footage of yourself online immediately, without having to find and memorize a lengthy monologue​ or buy fancy video equipment


Day 4: Building Your Audition Machine

  • Exact steps to find legitimate auditions and apply to them in a way that ensures you're taken seriously and given a fair shot
  • How to make your submission stand out & get noticed by casting directors every single time – this technique can be used by anyone and takes less than 3 minutes to do
  • How to build your audition MACHINE – learn how to quickly set up a system that will allow you to get auditions consistently, easily, and painlessly


​Day 5: Let Your Career Take Flight

  • A hack to use stress and worry to your advantage, instead of letting them hold you back – this simple mental framework alone can vastly increase your confidence in auditions
  • The 4 things casting directors DON’T care about... that most new actors spend way too much time worrying about (and can actually cause them to stay stuck for YEARS)
  • What to prepare for as you start to see more and more auditions, and how to avoid "shortcuts" that won’t make a real difference in your acting career long-term​

"I always thought you had to have professional experience, headshots, and an agent right away, but I now know that it doesn’t matter how experienced I am in the acting industry. What matters is to be consistent with my work, and build a system for constant progress and improvement.

– Ashley P.
​

​"Kickstart Your Acting Career was so helpful for me. Using your formula, I secured a callback to a Hallmark movie and some independent films as well. I enjoy your videos and appreciate your advice and guidance!
​
– Kevin O.
​

"I just want to say thank you so much for Kickstart Your Acting Career. On Friday I got invited to an audition – with a note saying the creator was glad to hear about my experience!!! ​Your advice on Submissions Notes helped me stand out!"

– Danielle S.
​

​You knew every blockage a new actor goes through and it felt so relatable. I’ve already got an audition today!

​– Joshua C.
​


"I'd rate Kickstart Your Acting Career a 10 for SURE!! It has helped me so much in just 5 days and I'll take the lessons learned and the strategies mentioned with me everywhere I go! Thank you so much for your honesty and insight!!"
​
– ​Bin U.
​

​"Kickstart Your Acting Career is a great framework - it filled in a lot of blanks and helped me put structure to my acting career. It really helped me flesh out some things I had glossed over when I first started acting."

​– Ellie C.
​

"Even though I'm from Germany, the tips really helped me a lot! So I would rate it a 10/10!"

​– Sofia P.
​


"​Kickstart Your Acting Career is an awesome resource, especially for actors who are at the beginning of their career. It gives clear advice and makes breaking into the acting industry actually achievable. A great and motivating course that I can only recommend!"

– Sofia P.
​

"I'm used to being offered advice that I've already tried (or which I don't feel is adapted to my situation), but your approach doesn't make me feel like I have to squeeze into an ill-fitted cooky-cutter. The exercises you offer are very effective in terms of results, and that clearly defines the value of your course. I can feel your genuineness and for that you have my total respect. Thank you again for your dedication and support in this industry, Martin. I will remember your name and your kindness."

​– Maéva L.
​


"I think one of the most helpful things to me of Kickstart Your Acting Career was the format itself. I am one of those 'spreadsheet people' who loves breakdowns and lists, so having everything divided into clear steps (which could all be accomplished in a week!) made it seem so much more manageable. I have never seen a step-by-step program to getting started (or gaining momentum) like yours.
