What no one tells you about acting cover letters…


If you’re an actor who:

  • overthinks cover letters
  • rewrites them again and again
  • worries about sounding pushy, cringe, or “too much”
  • wonders if casting directors even read them


This episode is for you.
In this podcast, acting coach Louise breaks down a simple, practical cover letter tip used by professional copywriters that can make casting directors and agents more likely to read your email to the end, without changing a single word you write. WOOOHOOO!


You’ll learn:

  • why most acting cover letters get skimmed or deleted
  • how casting directors actually read emails
  • the one easy formatting tweak actors are never taught
  • how to stop procrastinating over cover letters

This episode is perfect for: actors, performers, drama school graduates, early-career actors, and anyone trying to get more auditions, agents and acting work.


🎧 Listen now, try the tip for yourself, and if booking more auditions and acting jobs in 2026 matters to you, make sure you join the free Business of Acting Workshop happening Sunday 22nd February.
