Assertive Management talent management acting actor actress agency assertive Internet
I received an email stating this company found me on IMDB and they wanted to represent me. Nice right... Well, there was no name or phone numer in the email. I responded asking who I am communicating with and visited their website. There are no names on the website either. I thought it could be a manager that I fired or one other person that I know to be a scam. I followed my gut and with further investigation I discovered it is a scam. Yes, I am an actor looking for representation, but not falling for a scam.I get work every week as an actor and do not need to spend time with people playing games or looking for money like this.
I pasted their email below.

We would like to discuss the possibility of our company representing you. If you already have exclusive representation, then please ignore this email.
We only work on a percentage basis (15%), and do not charge any other fees whatsoever.
We have relationships (but are not affiliated) with the major three agencies:
1. Creative Artist Agency (CAA)
2. United Talent Agency (UTA)
3. International Creative Management (ICM)
We prepare our clients for the agencies listed above, by improving their social media (Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter), helping them to acquire more IMDB credits, and performing tasks such as travel arrangements, appointment scheduling, and hiring of personnel. Most importantly, we instill an assertive work ethic that produces success.
Please see our website, which includes testimonials from Warner Bros. and Disney:

If you are interested, please provide your phone number and city, and the best time that we can call you.
Thank you,
Assertive Management

p.s. This is a new company (although our staff has many years of experience), and we do not yet have an IMDB profile (which is where we received your email address). If you do not wish to receive any further email from us, then simply do not reply to this message.
