Talent Representation Services

PERSONAL ATTENTION

As a client of MediaStars, you will be given unparalleled attention and a level of service not normally found at other agencies.  We are only interested in building a long lasting relationship with you.  Career success is achieved with a solid, team effort that includes constant feedback, critiques, strategic positioning, and continued close attention to your progress and goals. We’ve even been known to help clients re-write high-profile packages, critique/assist with awards submissions entries, provide feedback on appearance and wardrobe and even give a little boost at getting you industry and trade publication recognition for your hard work.

We’re extremely proud that since the company started in 1998, many of our original clients are still with us.

 

CONTRACT NEGOTIATION

We are experts at structuring deals and negotiating contracts.  The days of easy, lucrative compensation packages are over. You need someone who understands the market and knows the potential salaries and benefits and is skilled at pushing for a compensation package you deserve.  It’s also important to know how to leverage your talent and skills over the 500 other applicants for a job.  Our previous experience as news executives gives us an advantage at knowing what can be accomplished in your deal and when to say “no” to a potential employer.

We’re committed to getting you the best deal, maximizing your income, and orchestrating the most strategic career moves for your growth.
 

CLIENT PLACEMENT

MediaStars specializes in knowing where the jobs are – often times before they’re officially open.  Our reputation for providing top talent prompts vice presidents, news directors and network talent recruiters to call us when they’re looking for strong performers.  Anyone can monitor the online job services, but not everyone gets calls for the “unpublished” positions.  In addition, we’re constantly on the phone making contacts and checking in for the latest updates.  We will never guarantee a job offer, but we’re confident your demo will be watched.

Looking for a job is a full-time job. Don’t burn yourself out by trying to do your best at work AND search for a new position.

 

STRONG CONTACTS

It takes time, perseverance, and a history of tenacious work to build the number of contacts we’ve accumulated at MediaStars.  We’re also proud to work with some of the industry’s leading talent consultants at Talent Dynamics, Broadcast Image Group and Frank N. Magid Associates.
 

TAPE CRITIQUE

Whether you’re just starting out in your career or are a veteran broadcaster, you know there’s nothing more important than your demo tape.


When was the last time you got substantial one-on-one feedback? Surely you’ve seen the number of tapes that come in every time an ad is placed for an on-air position. How do you compare?
