Get Started, Not Scammed

From Finance to Fame
by Lar Park Lincoln

Get Started, Not Scammed Cover

Unfortunately, getting started in the acting business is only half the battle. Recognized by Entrepreneur Magazine as the “leading expert in scam prevention” (July 2000), Lar Park Lincoln has made a (second) career out of steering Hollywood hopefuls from falling prey to the seedier side of the business, in other words those bent on separating future stars and starlets – or in many cases their unsuspecting parents, friends, or spouses – from their hard-earned cash. Thus the second added-value aspect of Lar’s book revolves around the various scams that exist, how they work, how to spot them and, best of all, how to avoid them.

Readers of Get Started, Not Scammed will learn:

  • How to go from zero experience to professional head shot
  • The difference between auditions, cattle calls, and generals
  • Where to find a reputable agent – and how to know the difference
  • How to get the acting/modeling job and how to keep it
  • How to self-promote
