NEED TO TALK STRATEGY SESSION
Sometimes you need more than just Talk
Sometimes you need information and strategy.
– What to focus on first
– How to go from just testing to paid jobs
– What’s in a Deal Memo
– How to negotiate a rate
– How and When to Approach an Agent
These are just a few examples of the types of questions that can be covered in the Need to Talk Strategy Session.
I’ll send a quick questionnaire and we’ll go over my best advice, strategies, and resources for your unique situation. After, I’ll send detailed notes on what we discussed, and your plan of action.
Grab a cuppa and your best questions, and let’s plot your next moves.
Build a Book that Books You Work
So what goes into the Portfolio of a professional media makeup artist? And more importantly, how do you build a book that converts to actual bookings?
Let’s face it; when it comes to viewing our own work no one is objective. We either love everything we’ve ever done, or we hate everything. The benefit of having an informed second set of eyes viewing your book cannot be overstated. I’ll go through your book and offer my best suggestions on what to keep, what can go, and where you might what you might want to develop next. AND we’ll make sure your social ties in nicely to make the best presentation to potential clients.
