Do You Need A Career Coach?

Yes. We all do.

Some actors imagine they can ‘guess’ their way into effectively pursuing a career in one of the most complex industries in the world.

People waste years of their lives getting it wrong, and many end up giving up and moving back home.

It is vital to have two coaches/mentors in your acting career - one for craft, and one for career strategies.

Your career coach will ensure you are taking the right steps at every stage; never wasting time, energy or resources.

In saying that, the goal of The Secret Actor Society is to be a digital business coach for your career - so perhaps work through our 10 Steps To Become An Actor videos before you consider one on one coaching.

How Often Should You See A Career Coach?

Once a month is optimal, but the schedule is determined by you.

Who Should You Coach With?

Coach with someone who has successfully worked as an actor or CD and is still connected with the industry as it is today.

It doesn’t need to be me.

There are more affordable coaches out there who are also awesome.
