STORY IDEAS, OPTIONS and SCRIPT SALES
INITIAL STRATEGIC EVALUATION
We help our clients option and sell their stories and scripts. Our main mission is to help identify and nurture tomorrow’s ‘future famous’ writers. We never take an upfront fee for helping our clients sell or option their intellectual property. We are paid on the backend of our mutually defined and contracted option and sales relationship. It is only after the property is successfully sold or optioned that we are paid our pre-negotiated success fee.

The approach to start this process begins with an Initial Strategic Evaluation, which will be contracted by the client. Based on the results of the evaluation and the suggested plan developed, we will then make a mutual decision to contract project representation for the next steps… or the client can choose to implement the suggested plan on their own.

Selling scripts is NEVER a problem… unless, of course, you have no money and no one knows your name or your work. Weak crowdfunding campaigns, low tier film festivals, bulk emails, random phone calls… and trying to reach Industry decision makers with blind submissions… is almost always a total failure.
We’ve watched this failure game play out over and over.
WE BEAT THE ODDS in helping our clients get their story ideas and scripts into the hands of Industry decision makers. This process always begins with an evaluation of all project related objectives and materials, which, for serious tier writers, can generated six and seven figures in sales. It is only after successful optioning and sale that we are paid our contracted success fee!
THE EVALUATION PROCESS
Our evaluation process with all new writer clients begins with a review of the story idea or script propery... plus a list of materials we will want to review. This will then be followed by an in-depth Client Questions Memo from our team, which the client will answer. The initial deliverable will be a detailed written memo outlining our suggested promotion and sales plan… which we call an Action Steps Memo. This memo will include our suggestions on how to best meet the client’s stated objectives in what we feel will be the best and most cost-effective way possible. This evaluation process generally takes about seven to ten business days to complete, during which time it will be important for the client to be available for additional questions by phone and/or email.
The retainer to begin this process is $3,750 and includes an additional (minimum) 30 days of client access from the date the written Action Steps Memo was sent to the client via email. The initial retainer can be applied to the cost of any future work, if contracted by the client. This relationship can be extended at NO COST by mutual agreement.
FOR EMERGING WRITERS
We are willing to waive the initial retainer for emerging writers with ‘future famous’ potential… if they are skilled, ambitious, and let us know they are currently struggling financially.
