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!
Jodie delves into topics, such as creating your brand and how
to market yourself with such detail that you don’t feel like
you are lost, overwhelmed. She provides worksheets and exercises on branding that are interactive, fun and make
you think outside the box to give you a deeper sense of self!
It will truly save you time, energy and money by having
her insight and support from the get go. I've booked SO MANY projects. I now have a competitive reel.
I even booked a play that took me to NYC!

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!
