The Creative Job Market Has Never Been This Crowded


With so many incredibly talented people out of work and so few opportunities to go around, getting noticed seems impossible right now.

Finding any creative work in the entertainment industry is more competitive than it’s ever been. Emmy winners are delivering Uber Eats just to make ends meet. And with all the continued uncertainty in the job market, it feels like we're climbing a mountain that may not even be there anymore.

Whether you’re navigating a major career pivot, pursuing your next dream job, or even just trying to land the next paycheck, standing out has never felt more overwhelming.

Hundreds (if not thousands) are applying for jobs on LinkedIn, and your applications disappear into cyberspace

An endless supply of generic, AI-generated résumés clog up gatekeepers’ inboxes and it feels impossible to get any attention

You have so many marketing materials to update (résumés, your website, LinkedIn, etc) you don’t know where to start!

Until now the work came to you, but now you have to sell yourself…

...except you don’t know what makes you unique (and you HATE selling!)

Even when you're convinced you meet every single qualification perfectly, it seems like someone else always gets the gig instead of you

 

I’m confident your lifetime of skills, knowledge, and experience are far more valuable to the right people than you know.

Hi, I'm Zack Arnold...


…and I’m not a branding expert. But I am a storytelling expert. Over my 20-year career in Hollywood I landed not one but multiple game-changing dream opportunities all because of a combination of killer cold outreach, a compelling story on my résumé and website, and a pitch in interviews so strong it got me (almost) every job in the room. None of this was a fluke…all of it is teachable.

I created this Masterclass because we creatives do things differently. Corporate job hunting isn’t our jam, and most corporate career coaches don’t understand how things work for us in creative fields.

I’ll show you what it takes to stand out from your competition, land the next gig, and build the creative career you deserve.

My work has been featured in:

This Masterclass Is For You If…

You want your résumé to attract the right creative collaborators (and repel the assholes)

You need to update your portfolio website but don’t know where to start

You don’t want your “About Me” page or LinkedIn Bio to sound like an AI bot

You want to feel more confident in your next job interview (without feeling like a sleazy car salesman)

You want to better understand what sets you apart from your creative competition

This branding makeover masterclass is designed by creatives for creatives who are struggling to stand out.

 

If you’re willing to roll up your sleeves and do the hard work, I'll show you how to use your storytelling skills to makeover your brand so you can then update all of your marketing materials and get noticed.

Here’s What You’ll Learn:

 


1.

Story

Learn how important storytelling is when creating your personal brand and how to make your creative services more compelling to the right clients, customers, and collaborators.


2.

Character

Learn how to clearly identify the ideal audience for your marketing materials so you can speak to their most important and urgent needs. (They’ll think you’re reading their mind!)


3.

Plot

Learn how to not only identify the key problems that you solve for your ideal customers but also tell make it abundantly clear you are the ideal solution.


4.

Theme

Every great story has a strong theme, and your brand story is no different. Learn how to seal the deal by connecting with your ideal customer’s ‘Why.’

Frequently Asked Questions

About Your Instructor

Hi! I'm Zack, an award-winning Hollywood film & TV editor (notable credits include Netflix’s Cobra Kai, Empire, and Burn Notice) who has also spent the last ten years as a podcaster, writer, and career coach.

I help creatives and storytellers like you design the more rewarding, fulfilling, and sustainable careers you deserve…without burning out (or selling your creative soul).

Having worked with hundreds of creatives all over the world, I understand it’s never been harder to build a career doing the work you love. Whether it’s the rapid rise of artificial intelligence, never-ending work stoppages from strikes and pandemics (and now fires???), or the implosion of legacy media, it feels nearly impossible just to find consistent work. I can’t change the world around us, but I can help you change your approach to how you brand yourself and market your creative services.

I’m confident your skills, knowledge, and experience bring far more value to the right people than you know. And I want to help you leverage your value and stand out from your competition so you can continue doing the work you love…without running in circles on random job boards and social media, ultimately burning out before you even land your next gig.

Consider me your career sensei. Welcome to my dojo.
