Just SOME of Career ACTivate’s Success Stories:
Generating Major Auditions On My Own
“Before I joined the Career ACTivate Elite Coaching program, I hadn’t had an audition, a union theatrical audition, in probably over a year. Now that I’ve learned ninja strategies, [in just a month of being in the program] I’ve auditioned for network series regular roles for pilots and huge hit network shows and I just really feel in control of my career. It’s really, really exciting and it’s very powerful for me. My reps are just like, ‘Oh, you got another audition! Have you heard of this show?’ You know, and I’m like, ‘Yeah, I know. I got myself that audition. Can you just pass the information on to me?’ They’re happy. They’re excited. They love actors that take their careers into their own hands.”

~ Jenna Doolittle

Game-Changer
“Joining Career ACTivate has been a major game changer for me in my career. I entered Career ACTivate with no representation and only auditioning once a month. Through the program, I put together super effective marketing materials, learned to self-pitch, and landed one of the best agents in town. I now audition 2-3 times a week! I have learned so many helpful tools that I use regularly with success. I feel like an empowered actor because of Career ACTivate. If you want to be a working actor, join Career ACTive! Thank you Jona and everyone at CA!”
~ Hilaria Larriva

100% Confident
“After taking the agent program, I now have many new and effective ways of getting theatrical representation. Before I was unsure exactly how to target getting an agent but I am now 100% confident I have the right tools. There are so many actors in LA that you need to stand out to even get an agent. It doesn’t matter how much talent you have if you don’t have the business tools to back it up, and Jona shows you those tools!”
~ Olivia Scott
15+ Major Auditions Without An Agent
“I just moved to LA two months ago, and since doing this course, I’ve gotten myself 15 auditions, including Fox film and producer’s callback for a major CBS film,and networking a few times a week now…all this while being non-union and with no agent, something people told me was ‘impossible’.”
~ Rayman Jilani
2 Direct Bookings
“Because of the knowledge and techniques that I learned in Jona’s workshop, I was able to completely re-think how I went about getting acting jobs. Through my new approach, I was able to connect with a director who had several significant projects in the works…and I was offered a role in both of his upcoming projects and will be filming in Italy for one of them! No audition!!! I’m a believer of Jona’s techniques.”
~ W. Cameron Tucker
20+ Meeting Requests From Agents & Managers
“Using Jona’s innovative and cutting-edge tools, I have over 20+ requests for meetings from agents and managers that I truly wanted to work with (ex.

My girlfriend found Jona on a FB group and we joined the program…I probably wouldn’t have had an agent without Career ACTivate. I probably wouldn’t have the wherewithal to be so forthcoming when I’m on set…I’m now on 9 episodes and counting on the Freeform show GOOD TROUBLE!”

From Oversaturated Category To MY Unique Brand
“I really loved this program! I’m in a tough category (white female actress in late 20s), so I feel as if no matter how talented I am, the market is so over saturated with my type, that I just won’t have doors opening for me. However, this program has lit a creative fire within me that I haven’t felt in years–maybe ever. I recommend this program for all actors who are feeling stuck!”

Jona will guide you through audio and video lessons and then you’ll be given a series of action steps to take to achieve your specific goals. You’ll have a system to rely on to stay on track until your goals are achieved. You won’t feel alone or that you’re left with just a bunch of concepts in your head after you’re done with a class as most coaches in L.A. do. This is not a one time quick fix but a long term plan to get you where you need to be.”
