Talent Maven
LinkedIn for the entertainment industry
A social network that connected actors, musicians, and models with talent agents. Within months of launch, 30 agents at William Morris were using the platform.
Making Headlines
Michael was working in the mailroom at William Morris. Every day, piles of tapes, headshots, and CDs arrived from aspiring talent—and every day, the instruction was the same: throw them away. But mailroom employees could only climb the agency ranks by discovering and signing great talent. So we built Talent Maven to flip the script: connect hungry artists with the junior staff at prestigious agencies who actually needed to find them. The assistants got discovery power; the talent got access. Everyone won.
