Andrea Kelly

Entertainment Career Coaching

I first met Andrea at a seminar hosted by my acting studio and immediately I was intrigued by the idea of her work. I had a manager at the time who I didn’t feel was helping guide my career. I didn’t feel like I was moving forward. I was seeking better representation, and I wanted to receive professional and up-to-date advice for myself as an actor by someone who knows what agents and casting directors are actually looking for.

I signed up for a session with Andrea and I have to say that it was by far one of the single best decisions I have ever made for myself and for my career. That is not an exaggeration.

Andrea looked at my materials, helped me pick out headshots, helped me compose my cover letters and helped me figure out my branding for myself.

Within a month and a half of working with Andrea, I had signed with a new manager who makes me feel seen, valued, and who inspires confidence in me in regards to my work.

Suddenly I was getting multiple auditions a week and I felt like I went from 0 to 60! Two months after signing with my new manager, I got an agent, and one month after working with my new agent, I booked a short film! Then three months after that, I booked a supporting role in a feature film!

So just to reiterate, 8 months after my first session with Andrea, I signed with a new manager, got my very first agent, AND I booked a short film and a feature film. This all happened WITHIN THE SAME YEAR.

If you’re considering hiring Andrea as your entertainment career coach, then I could not recommend making that investment enough. She is more than worth it, and as long as you’re willing to put in the work and follow the steps/advice that she provides to you, you WILL see a return on your efforts in a major way!

1000/10! Highly highly HIGHLY recommend!

Andrea Kelly changes lives! She fosters a professional relationship built on transparency and candor. Personally, she’s one of the most genuine human beings I’ve ever met and roots for your success because she takes the time to discover all the things you’ve sacrificed that you use to motivate you towards your goals. With her, you get a clear, and honest, picture of the road ahead of you. Her guidance is unmatched! I highly recommend anyone serious about #DreamingAwake to schedule a consultation and go from there; towards the greatness you’re meant to walk in! She gives wind to the sails of those ready to do the work!

Andrea is amazing!  I learned more in a couple one-on-one sessions with Andrea than I have from many of my acting teachers. She really knows this business and will help you take the right steps forward. She taught me about elements of this business that no one ever told me before!

Autumn Bruewer

In a word, I LOVE working with Andrea! She is so smart, and has such great insight, and combines that with strong, practical advice. I’m glad to have her on my team, and I always enjoy working with her. Not only does she provide fantastic counsel, she is also super nice and very easy to work with. I highly recommend Andrea!
 

Andrea is AMAZING. She motivated me to put in the time and effort to get representation, and it really paid off. She was there to answer all of my anxious questions (she responds ASAP), and always made me feel like they were valid. She reviewed my materials and made great recommendations. And now, after only a few months of working together, I’ve got an agent and a manager! Thanks, Andrea!

Andrea Kelly is a MUST GO TO for any actor who is serious about taking their career to the next level. She was so helpful, specific, and informative. Her years of experience in the industry mixed with Andrea’s kind and attentive personality take her to the next level. Not only was I given extremely detailed instructions and to do’s but I also felt she really understood me individually as an artist. I felt very taken care of with detailed specifics for my own personal professional journey. Wow. Thank you so much Andrea! I am so grateful to be working you!

Andrea truly made me feel as though my well-being was a priority. Getting to know who I am as a person and as an artist before implementing her wealth of knowledge to my apparent needs, proved she really cares about any individual she is working with. She makes everything not seem so daunting.

I’m just gonna start with this, I couldn’t recommend Andrea Kelly any more! As an actor there is such an honus on getting your craft right, that when it comes time to market yourself a lot of us have that “Oh shoot what do I do now” moment! I certainly did! Thats why having someone like Andrea, someone you can trust and who knows the ins and outs of the business of acting is so important. I had 3 face to face meetings with Andrea before I was signed by one of my dream managers, how amazing is that! She helped me fix up my materials, get my profiles shining, get my pitch letter down, help me figure out who to target (who is realistic for where you are at and who is going to work with your style) aka put me in a place to succeed. It’s very rare to find someone you can trust in this industry, and I feel very lucky to have found Andrea.

Andrea is the perfect combination of business and personal. She is efficient and to the point, whilst still being encouraging and supportive. I am grateful to have worked with her, my only regret is that we did not meet earlier!

I have struggled for years trying to find representation. I had submitted to over 130 different companies and no one would bite, not one. I decided to give Andrea a try and let me tell you what, I am so glad that I did. She was so thorough and went through every single piece of material with me. She helped me come up with the best way to not only brand myself, but how to communicate when reaching out to reps. Even though most didn’t have room on their roster, they still responded to my email, which had never happened before. I eventually signed with a management company and could not be more excited to get to work. If you are looking to find representation Andrea should be your first stop. Trust me.

I was so grateful to meet with Andrea, as I found her guidance to be both extremely helpful and nurturing. I found that what she had to say came from an authentic place and she shared her wisdom with me as someone who has had experience in many facets of the industry. 

She empathized with a very difficult situation I have been going through with someone in the film industry, which also meant a lot to me. 

Andrea treats actors with fairness and kindness, because not only is she a tenacious coach, she is a performer and an artist herself. She gave me the push I needed to take my career to the next level, and I highly recommend everyone go to her.

Actors… run, don’t walk to work with Andrea Kelly. I’m one of those actors who thought I was doing everything “right”- I work my butt off, I’m always in class, I created my own work, etc. And yet, I still struggled to get meetings with potential new representation and didn’t understand why. It wasn’t until meeting with Andrea that I learned how to present myself, and my materials, in the most effective way possible. Before working with Andrea, I had sent several emails to managers and never heard back. After working with her, I heard back from several managers, had numerous meetings, and was actually able to have a choice in which manager I’d like to work with. Now I’m represented by a manager I absolutely love and who is in complete alignment with me and my career goals. I can’t thank Andrea enough for giving me the coaching I needed to walk into these meetings feeling confident, prepared and ready. Like I said… run, don’t walk.

Andrea Kelly is wonderful, really gets to know you as an artist, and caters her work with you to what you are trying to achieve. If you have questions, she helps connect the dots.
