A membership of my proven step by step system to showcase you, your brand,
and your talent - taking you from outsider to in-demand actor in a year or less.

Think back to when you first started acting...

Remember the excitement, the dreams, and the passion you had?

Now, imagine how much further along you could be today if you'd known then what you know now. 

It’s a tough reality to face, but you don’t know what you don’t know.  And it can take years to figure it all out. I’ve been there. 

Even if you've had some success, I know there have been times when you’ve felt:

Frustrated, as if your submissions are just disappearing into a void
Disheartened by the lack of opportunities and the business side of the industry
Overwhelmed to the point where you feel paralyzed and end up doing nothing
Feel like nothing is happening despite taking multiple acting classes and courses

These feelings can be isolating and make you feel like you’re spinning your wheels, hoping for change that never comes.

If you're truly honest with yourself, you know you’re not where you want to be...yet.

Giving up is not an option! So stop wasting time & money and finally -

Within 2 weeks of following the agent strategy she had a manager, a theatrical agent & a commercial agent!

Since working with Jodie, I’ve had CD’s say “I love your look,
you know what your doing
!”
 
I followed her strategy for finding representation in The Actor's Think Tank®. Within an hour of my

first email blast, I had 5 meetings set up. Two weeks later, I signed with a new agent, new commercial agent and my first manager! Every one of my meetings said my press kit was perfect and
they knew exactly how to sell me.  
The Think Tank was instrumental in getting me prioritizing. Because of insight I gained into my
own chaos & how to stop it, I was able to shoot
my first movie as a producer/writer in 4 weeks!

Signed with a theatrical agent and a commercial agent, increased his
income and opened doors!

Holy cow what we’ve accomplished! I systematically approached my branding and headshot prep and my new shots are brand-centric and gorgeous. I landed a new theatrical and commercial agent and  I just got called in to audition for my dream show and got a callback!   I was also was challenged to boost my business role-play and standardized patient work with a pitch video and Linked-In testimonials all woven into an effective webpage.  That in combination with the pitch e-mails continues to bring in work. I have more jobs than I can handle now! Jodie & Think Tank are such a blessing in my life for a thousand reasons.

Hey there! I’m Jodie Bentley, an NYU Tisch trained actor, producer and audiobook narrator who's worked for Netflix, Hulu, ABC, CBS, Apple TV & more.

Since 2008, I’ve helped actors achieve their goals, stop the self-sabotage, build their authentic brand, package their marketing tools, network like a boss, and land agents and managers.

And I totally get being overwhelmed & frustrated as an actor.

When I graduated NYU, I had no clue what I was doing when it came to the business side. I literally floundered for 8 years trying to piece a career together. My results were ok… but random and rare. I was missing something, but didn't know what.

I was so sick of not knowing exactly what to do that I read every freakin’ business book I could get my hands on. 

Then the light bulb moment - I'm a product AND I'm a business owner! I started taking branding and business  principles that worked in the real world and morphed them for our creative profession.

I built my acting biz  authentically, smartly & holistically... everything changed.

Within 6 months, I got my Actors Equity card, my first theatrical agent, an Off-Broadway show, and I got to do the cast recording with Stephen Schwartz. 

I finally had the info I didn’t know I needed to know. Now you will too...

As an actor, there’s no roadmap to get where you want to go, but you need one!

If You've Ever Said...

I want to get in more rooms and don't know how!

I want to have a plan and a strategy that I follow through on!

I want headshots that feel like me and get me auditions!

I want to feel confident about pitching myself!

I want representation who gets me and who I love!

I want to be an advocate for myself in this crazy business!

I want to stop making excuses and getting in my own way!

I want someone in my corner showing me what to do!

The Actor's Think Tank® is a 7 Step Proven System to take the mystery out of acting success and help you embrace the biz of acting with ease. 

You'll massively accelerate your progress so you never spend another year 
regretting you weren't further along.

you think outside the box
to give you a deeper sense of self!

the get go. I've booked SO MANY projects. I now have a competitive reel.

Finally has the career they want built on their values and a brand they love, then signed with a Manager who gets them!

I'd felt totally out of control in my career. Jodie helped me take that power back by helping me align with my core values and crafting concrete, manageable, actionable steps. It made me feel so much more confident and powerful. Destigmatizing the idea of branding  completely changed the game for me - we crafted exciting new materials like my reel, website, and headshots. Then I signed with a management team who completely "get" me and believe in me! Jodie helped me make the strides I'd been dreaming of with sensitivity, kindness, expertise, and hilarity!
