Does Representation Rundown or Your Career Plan include any one-on-one coaching?
No. All action plans and evaluations provided through my Your Career Plan suite of products are just that: made-to-order assessments and action plans built to order from the information you will be asked to provide. These career and representation blueprints do not include one-on-one consultation, but once your action plan is delivered, you will have the opportunity to purchase a consultation at a reduced price if you would like to discuss your plan further. 

How long and extensive are these action plans?
Your Career Plan and/or Representation Rundown will typically run between 7-10 pages, sometimes more. 

Do you provide the names and emails of managers that I could reach out to as part of my Representation Rundown?
While I will provide the names of reps and representation companies the sort of which may be a fit for you and that you therefore should be looking to approach, your Representation Rundown does not serve as a referral to representatives, but rather a starting point for your own research towards the  target list of manager you should approach as part of your representation strategy. 

Do I get a Query Letter Review with my Representation Rundown?
No. However, you may purchase a Query Letter Review separately. 

How does the whole Query Letter Review work? 
Once you’ve purchased a Query Letter Review, I will send you my Query Letter Guidelines, and ask you to send me the first draft of your query letter. You will receive notes over email within 5-business-days of sending me your 1st draft of your query letter, and will then have the opportunity to submit your 2nd draft of your query letter for a final review. 

When you say that these action plans are tailor-made… What do you mean?
Upon purchasing your career plan, representation rundown or portfolio review, you will be sent a link to an extensive questionnaire which will allow me to collect the data that I will need to put together your action plan or assessment. Once I review your information, I may reach out with additional questions in order to assemble the most comprehensive action plan that I can for you. I assemble each action plan myself based on the information you provide me with and my many years coaching writers, writer-directors and directors, so that each plan or assessment is entirely unique. 

How long will it take to get my action plan or assessment?
Your Career Plan, Representation Rundown and Portfolio assessment takes 10-15 business days to assemble from the time that I have your information. If you purchase a query letter review, you will receive feedback on your 1st query draft within 5-business-days from the date submitted, unless informed otherwise.    

What if I prefer to work with you one-on-one instead of just getting an extensive written action plan?
If you would like to work with me one-on-one, you are always welcome to sign up for Career Coaching.

“If you want to get an agent or manager, you need a plan. Lee Jessup’s Representation Rundown is a brilliantly crafted bespoke plan that totally changed my approach to attracting representation. I can’t recommend it highly enough.”

Sylvia-Anne Parker, Screenwriter, Fellow of the Sundance Episodic Lab, Sony Creative Corridor Program, The Writers Lab UK & Europe.


“I had a bunch of accolades from competitions, multiple high scoring evaluations from respected coverage sites and three actionable features in a proven genre but my quest to find a manager was coming up way short. Lee’s Representation Rundown package laid in incredible detail a) the specific reasons why my approach might not be yielding results and b) multiple options to reverse this trend in the future. I was blown away by how insightful and comprehensive the report was. Highly recommend it for those writers in a similar position.”

Johnny Gilligan, Screenwriter

“For me I don’t like to just write and hope for a sale, I realize there is a business machine behind any writer and having no clue how that works I decided to invest in Lee Jessup’s Writing Career Plan, hoping it was sort of a manual to the machine. It is. The plan provided me with honest feedback;  strengths, weaknesses, and followed with a structured approach to filling in the weakness and developing a career  path  and building my writing brand rather than just hoping to sell a spec script for a big payday.

What impressed me the most was how specific and industry-focused the guidance was. Lee didn’t just offer vague encouragement – she delivered concrete, actionable steps tailored to my particular situation and goals. The career plan broke down exactly what I needed to do next, which for me helped eliminate the paralysis that comes from not knowing where to focus my energy.

It was a no-brainer to have an experienced industry mentor create a detailed plan on how to develop my writing career and she definitely delivered. She even wrote me an award-winning script as a bonus. Kidding, you still have to do the work 🙂 “

Rob Watts, Screenwriter

“Lee’s Representation Rundown exceeded my expectations. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but what I received was an incredibly detailed, personalized analysis of my next steps for success in the industry. The Rundown was tailored to my experience and skillset, considering my strengths, body of work, and how to strategically leverage them to achieve my goals. This wasn’t generic advice—it was clear that a great deal of thought and care went into it. Now, I have a concrete, actionable plan to move forward. I highly recommend this to any screenwriter looking to advance their career.”

Patrice Escoto, Screenwriter

“As someone transitioning into a new facet of the industry, Lee Jessup’s “Your Career Plan” has been invaluable. Rather than spinning my wheels on projects that won’t serve my career goals, she has given me a focused direction. Lee’s deep understanding of the industry and the many paths available to writers makes this an essential resource for anyone serious about building a sustainable career in entertainment.”  

Tanem Davidson, Writer-Director
