How to Become a Talent Agent:

Talent agents help actors, musicians, models and other entertainers find work. Agents work for large agencies or on their own. Earning a degree is a good place to start, followed by getting an internship with an established agency. Developing persistence in your marketing, being highly organized, and building relationships will help you succeed. Working as a talent agent requires you to have a license, scout undiscovered talent, and groom talent that you secure. It is also helpful to specialize in one area such as acting or modeling and learn how to negotiate contracts.
