Remember, if they can’t find you they can’t hire you. So join AADB – put up a profile – get some good photos of yourself and start submitting yourself to auditions. Here’s a quote from an actor:

“I made the right decision to join AADB.com and I’ve already gotten four auditions and I believe that I successfully cleared one though I should get the final news by the weekend. Not bad for just five days on the site.”
