"Hey Joe! I am so glad I came to the seminar on Sunday! What a blast! It was great to talk with other aspiring actors, writers, and directors in an open forum format. Sam was a huge success and really gave some great advice to those of us who are just starting out. I have already become a member on the site and I can't wait to let my creative juices flow with all the rest of the passionate folks on the website. Thanks for making this process so much easier for the virgin actor! You guys are great!"
Roger
"Hi Joe, this is Roger. I would like to thank you for the opportunity for inviting me yesterday to your seminar. I definitely thought that it was very helpful and you cleared all doubts that your company was another scam. I would definitely be interested in participating in any future project that you are thinking of putting up. I just checked out your website and signed up for it already so whenever something is going on, just feel free to shoot me an email. Thanks again."
John G.
"Hey Joe. The seminar was great, it was really good to hear from a working actor and someone who has been in the industry for a couple decades, I am looking forward to the next one. I will be working with a writer over the next few days on ideas and scripts he has. I will keep you posted on our progress. Thanks again."
Eliza A.
"Hi Joe. I actually enjoyed the seminar very much. I was a bit skeptical at first, because like Sam said, and you would know as well, you (as an actor) always think that someone is trying to rip you off for acting classes or "networking events" etc. I actually went to this networking thing before and the person (who will remain nameless) wanted people to join his "networking" thing which cost about $1200 for the year (big rip off) especially since all the people he brought in to "network" with were losers and nobodies. But anyway, I did enjoy both of your comments and what you had to say today. I have already registered with you and you just say when, for the next meeting for the webisodes and I'm there. Thanks again Joe."
Iyad H.
"Hello Joe and Sam. The seminar was very comprehensive, rich, valuable and at the same time simple. Getting information this easy and most importantly for FREE from someone whose inside the industry isn't that easy. Also your approach having the actors share their own experiences was magnificent, because now I don't only have my own experience, but I have Joe's. Sam's and another fifteenth actors' years of experience as well. I am looking forward to working with you. Regards."
