"The Savvy Actor is just what an actor needs to sift through the mounds of information that is available for actors. Its resource section is fantastic and their SendOutCards database service is a quick and easy way to look great for the industry and keep track of your contacts. I give TheSavvyActor.com a big thumbs up!" -Leslie Becker, author of The Organized Actor®

     

"The Savvy Actor Mailings lets me, with a few clicks, design, write and mail postcards or actual folded cards (in envelopes!) to my business contacts. I'm a huge fan. If anything, my only shortcoming is not using it ENOUGH. It has helped me get the word out about a number of events, as well as a few last minute birthday cards and thank you notes, and I'm grateful to Jodie for introducing it to me. What I really love is that it's just as easy to send to one person as it is to one hundred!" - James Donegan (Forbidden Broadway: Rude Awakening)

     

"The Savvy Actor is a must-have resource for actors at any stage in their career. I find myself going to their site for anything from a massage reference to a refresher on actor marketing! I know Jodie, and she truly is a savvy actor, businessperson - and a wonderful human being, as well. You can't go wrong with The Savvy Actor on your team." -Amy Russ (Actor & Owner of ActorWebs.com)

     

"I'd never been very good at the business side of our business. For me, an objective, and supportive outside opinion was key in my contacting The Savvy Actor. I found myself lacking direction as to what the next steps in my career were. I'd just signed with a new agent. Now what? I wasn't getting the response I wanted at auditions. What should I do to change it? Jodie Bentley's insight and creative, focused ideas really helped me figure out the right path I should take to market myself more effectively. The Savvy Actor's coaching service is invaluable. I am now on my way to becoming a better business woman!" - Jessica Mary Murphy

   

"My coachings with Jodie helped me construct a solid plan for leaving my agent and finding a new one. I couldn't have done it without her. And the "Savvy" industry lists make mailings a snap. Thanks Jodie and Kevin!" - Liz Griffith

   

"As a newcomer to the city, I had no clue where to start. Thankfully I met Kevin Urban whose practical knowledge of the industry in New York made me realize that getting work and moving on up in New York is not as difficult as it may seem. Kevin's coaching, and advice comes from a warm, sincere, genuine loving place, and because he is a working actor himself, you just know that he knows what he's talking about. I felt really blessed that I met Kevin soon after arriving here and I strongly recommend him to any other clueless actor who has just moved here." - Ed Malone

     

"A must have tool for any actor. The business seemed overwhelming before, but now, thanks to The Savvy Actor, I have the confidence and "know how", to properly approach the business from all sides. From finding an agent to choosing the right classes, the people at Savvy Actor knows what it takes to become successful in this business, because they too rely on these very same practices. Now thanks to their Send Out Cards package I am in contact with agents in a way that let's me stand out amongst the crowd. I love their philosophy that we are all in this together, and I myself tell as many people I can about this amazing resource." -Thomas DelPizzo


"Being new to the entertainment industry, The Savvy Actor is, without question or embellishment, heaven-sent. Just one quick testimony: In the seminar, Jodie & Kevin asked us to write down our goals & explained the power of vision. One of my goals: "have an agent" - within 10 days of writing this down, I was called in by Archer King's office for a visit! I was extremely confident during the visit AND knew exactly how to present myself because of the meticulous coaching I received from Jodie. I could go on. Thank you Jodie & Kevin for being unselfish givers...it shall be given back to you!" -Sandi Holland


"Ever since I found Jodie and the brilliant website she and Kevin have painstakingly put together, I have felt much more in charge of my career. Thanks to Jodie's coaching and constant willingness to dispense advice, I now feel more at ease in interviews, my resume looks sharper, and I have a much stronger sense of how to go about marketing my product. I was told how smart I was no less than five times by a casting director recently who liked the way I'd been handling my mailings and my cover letter, in no small part because of tips Jodie had given me on how to format it in an eye-catching way! Thanks to these guys, I have found the freedom to be firmly myself in the business, not just in the artistry. Wahoo to actor empowerment!" -AmyJo Jackson

   

"Most everyone has a crew of supportive friends and family rooting for them, but they can only help from the outside looking in. With TheSavvyActor.com's guidance and coaching, someone on the "inside track" has not only my best interests in mind but also the tools with which to address them. They know me personally, and through phone, email, and one-on-one coaching sessions with Jodie Bentley, I now have a distinct vision of where I want to go and how to get there, tailored by my vision for an acting career. I now have the support that my family could not provide, so in a way, TheSavvyActor.com has become my artistic surrogate family. I feel empowered, because I'm working smarter, NOT harder. I, indeed, feel "savvy". -Sonya Cooke

   


"The Savvy Actor is an amazing resource that should not be missed! Being able to send out thank yous and postcards at the click of a button has made the tedious part of the business so much easier. That is not all- the personal coachings were a tremendous help! I have always known who I am and where my “type” fits into the business, but being able to concretely project that seemed to elude me. The Savvy Actor helped me pin point what I needed to do to market myself successfully and helped me put together a plan to do so. With their backgrounds in marketing and being actors themselves I couldn’t have asked for a better resource to help me put my plan into action. I have since gotten positive feedback about my work, being prepared and very professional. Thanks to The Savvy Actor I have more confidence and a better handle on how I am presenting my “package” to those in the business!" -Nikki Van Cassele
