Episode Description from the Publisher

Should you work as a local hire if you have to pay your own travel and might actually lose money on the job? Same question for an unpaid acting project that promises footage or a credit. And how do you know if you've outgrown an opportunity and just don't know it yet? In this coaching episode, DaJuan helps an actor figure out when taking a short-term loss is a smart strategic move and when it's time to say no. - Want more auditions—and a better shot at booking them?
