Become Your Own Publicist by Steven Shehori - A+ Class

Steven taught a class on how to be your own publicist. It’s priced so well and I totally got my money’s worth. I learned so much! He was funny, knowledgeable, Answered questions and even kept in touch to help tweek my approach for approaching casting agents. I highly recommend his weekend class. Cheaper than hiring a PR rep, for sure. It’s through the Actor’s Connection!
