Sean de Simone and Barbara are back with a fun, hands-on and effective two-day workshop to set you up for success.
Fact: Getting the job and doing the job are two separate skill sets.
If you have talent and skills but aren’t booking jobs – or even getting in the room – this unique tv hosting class is for you.
The missing piece to your career puzzle is Strategy.
In this one-of-a-kind workshop you will receive REAL feedback in real time and you will learn:
- Identify and play to your strengths.
- Where the opportunities are.
- What producers, networks, platforms and brands are really looking for.
- How to read a casting breakdown to connect your value to their needs.
- How and what to submit to break through the clutter and get noticed.
- How to strategize and showcase your talent through the audition process – whether in the room, via zoom or self-tape.
If you’ve taken our Hosting for Home Shopping Class, you know how unique and impactful our methodology is. This workshop adapts our proven strategy to lifestyle and entertainment hosting + guest experts.
If you’re new to our classes, you’re in for a game-changing treat!
How do we know this works? We have former students working across platforms.
Here’s what they have to say:
Whether you’re at the beginning of your hosting journey or you just want some tweaking, sign up for this! Sean and Barbara are the best of the best – you’ll leave 100% more confident and with a better skillset than you came in with. Bonus is that it’s so damn fun!
– Stacy2 weeks after I took your course, I auditioned for a network and nailed it. After your critiques and lessons, it really gave me a fresh perspective and I gained major confidence when I went in there and was 100 percent me!!! Thanks so much!!!! So here I am on national tv!! Woo hoo!
– JackieI wanted to share some exciting news with you and say thank you. This week I started a new job as a Weekend Anchor / Weekday Reporter…and while that’s exciting, a large part of me being prepared for this opportunity is many thanks to you. Going into the interview (which was originally said to be a “quick tour“ of the station), I found myself reflecting back on many of the things I learned from you – from comfort, to posture, and all around preparation.
– BlakeYou class is absolutely THE BEST professional training I have ever attended: very informative, well-organized and presented and, also, challenging. Best of all, it was a lot of fun! You are a terrific teaching team and I am grateful for all your time. I learned a lot and I thoroughly enjoyed spending my weekend with both of you!
– PamYour class was amazing and invaluable!
