How to Get an Agent (Screenwriting Uncut #10)

Most writers will never get an agent -- because they make enormous mistakes that kill their chances. Here is the BEST way, and a powerful strategy that WILL get you results.

EPISODE 10: "How to Get an Agent"

One of the first questions new writers ask -- "How do I get an agent?" -- is not only the LAST question they should ask, it reveals a deep misunderstanding of (and disrespect for) the industry's real needs. Agents and producers are people, and their needs must be taken into consideration, or you won't get anywhere.

In this video, Jeff explains who agents are, what they really do, and how their job works on the most fundamental level. Then, from that understanding, he outlines the very BEST way to get an agent (that both of you will love), and a second-best strategy that any writer can achieve if they treat the job like a professional.

Getting an agent is an important (if optional) step in every new writer's marketing strategy, and this video pull you away from the "screenwriting lottery" mentality that prevents most writers from ever getting noticed -- and into a practical, real-world, objective task you can actually achieve.
