MAX Agency Talent,

We regret to inform you that over the past couple of weeks we’ve received a great amount of feedback from our clients and some of it was not positive.

Our main goal is to help you land as many gigs as possible, offering important tips and tools as indicated on the MAX Agency Policies & Procedures handout and the Audition Info form. It is absolutely imperative that these instructions be followed in order to gain success within the talent industry. Furthermore, when auditioning you not only represent yourself, you also represent MAX Agency and poor representation of both is highly unacceptable.

Complaints received by our clients are as follows; poor choice of clothing, gum chewing,  leaning on desk, arriving late and showing up unprepared.

The following tips will help you appear more professional when in a professional setting and increase the possibility of booking auditions.

Clothing attire:

• Female talent are expected to wear a black, form-fitting black dress with heels or knee-high boots. Hair should always be worn down. NO color nail polish and NO jeans or accessories.

• Male talent are expected to wear a black button-down shirt with slacks. Clothing must be neat. NO wrinkles and NO jeans.

Key pointers:

• Always arrive prepared. You MUST carry your portfolio book, comp card and resume with you at all times when going on an audition.

• Always arrive 5-10 minutes early.

• NEVER lean over the clients desk. Sit-up straight.

• Always be alert, professional and pleasant.

• NO gum chewing!

• NEVER discuss payment with the client. It will be handled by MAX Agency.

Great news! Bradley M of MAX Agency Toronto has booked a commercial with Johnston Group Insurance! Congrats, Bradley M!

Johnston Group Insurance has been around since 1965 and provides benefit services to more than 28,000 businesses. With their headquarters in Winnipeg, Johnston Group Insurance issues 300 new group cases a month and much more. They are recognized as  one of Canada’s leading third party administrators. The idea behind a third party administrator (TPA) is that an insurance company cannot be all things to all people. As TPA’s, they carry out many things that I typically meant to be handled by the insurer. Some of the things they do is plan and design administration, handle billing and customer service, online administration utilities, give access to pay-direct prescription drug cards, and offer insured and self-funded program options.

Bradley M

We are so proud of Bradley M! Bradley is good at bowling, cycling and swimming. He can also model, play the bongo and even the drums! We believe he will do so well in the Johnston Group Insurance commercial and wish him many more commercials to come.

We can’t wait to see the commercial, Bradley M!
