Hollywood Executives For You To Mail To Specifically For Your Screenplay
You've won the battle of somehow finding the time to write and re-write your screenplay, get feedback, and re-write some more. You may even have gone through that process a few times. Now you've finished it, and you want to sell it, right? If you said yes, I say, "Great!" You're on the right track.
You may already know this -- and if you don't you'll soon find out -- that getting your screenplay read by Hollywood is a whole other phase of a screenwriting career itself and is equally as important as writing the screenplay in the first place. Obviously, if you write a great script but never market it, nothing can happen with it. So the question is, where do you begin to market your script, given that you already know that Hollywood is super-competitive?
If you ask 10 different people about what you should do first, you will hear a few different things, like go get an agent or send a query letter or go to pitchfests, or something along that line. No matter what they tell you, it boils down to one thing that they all have in common. It boils down to this:
You have to tell the right people about your screenplay,
and you have to tell them about it in a way that makes them want to read it.Whether it's your first time that you will be trying to get the right people to read your script or the one hundredth time, your next step to get it read is to find the right people to read it and tell them about in an exciting way. There are a handful of ways that you can try to do these two things.
What about pitching in person?
One is that you could go to pitchfests where you have the opportunity to pitch to whatever executives show up. That's not a bad way to do it -- as long as you find out about the pitchfests and as long as the execs who would be right for your script are there. Then it's just a matter of getting your ticket to it and attending. And of course, you may need to get a flight, a hotel, and take some days off work to attend. And then of course, you will need to get really good at pitching. But if you can do all those things, it's a pretty good way to get the chance to pitch your script live to a few people.
Is It Spam?
Another way is to email some information on your script. Again, it's not a bad idea since it's basically free -- that is, it's not a bad idea once you find out who the right people are to send to for your script. But of course, you have to find their personal email address. And then, of course, you have to write a great pitch of your story. And of course, you have to hope it doesn't go into their spam folder. And, you have to hope that they actually see your email in the middle of thousands of others. And then hope that they not only see it but also read it.
Send a Hard Copy of A Well-Crafted Pitch
to Executives Hand-Picked To Target For Your ScriptOn the other hand, from the comfort of your own home, you could create a great pitch and market to just the right executives chosen specifically for you. You would know exactly who they are and you would have a complete listing of them for your records. How would you do this?
You would do it through a Smart Girls Query Letter Mailing to help you get it out to a legitimate group of executives chosen just for you. And no, it's not free, but you get a custom query letter addressed to individual Hollywood executives chosen just for your script, so you can present your script as professionally in your marketing as you have in writing it.
With a Query Letter Mailing, you don't have to wait for just the right time of year and hope the executives you want show up at whatever pitching event you might want to attend. You don't have to deal with the nerves of pitching just right in person at your one shot at the right time. You don't have to worry that they will never even see your email because it went to spam. With a hard copy letter, as long as the USPS delivers it, they WILL put their hands on it. And so then it's a matter of getting them to open and read that letter (and we have ways of doing that, so read on!)
First, let me tell you about the Deluxe Query Letter System, which Smart Girls has for many years. And we've just sweetened the deal on it!
A Professional, Well-Crafted, Query Letter That Pitches Your Script in the Most Commercial Way Possible. You will receive a custom, professional query letter about your script that identifies "the hook" in your story and presents your script in the most commercially-appealing way possible. A hook is critical, and If your pitch doesn't have one, you won't catch anything. We will help you create one that will make the best aspect of your story stand out.
If you're worried that your pitch might need help, you can relax, we work on that with you for your letter. In fact, we have Two Video Guides that walk you through the process of figuring out the juiciest, most interesting hooks in your script. From that we will draft your pitch for you – and then work together with you until we both agree that it's the best it can be.
A Hand-Picked List of Producers Chosen Specifically For Your Script. Using our custom-designed SmartStudio™software, we hand-pick a list of the best producers for your script from our database of over 2000 Hollywood producers. Our SmartStudio™ software was custom-developed for this process designed by Dr. Melody Jackson. Using more than 75 elements to categorize your script, we will identify the best companies for you to market your script to. The elements include things like the genre(s) they specialize in, budget, casting, VIPs in their company, their affiliations and deals, and much, much more. After taking all of this detailed information into account, we finally weed through the list (with our eyeballs) to come up with a prime, targeted list of the ones who would be the best candidates for your script.
A Custom Written Tagline for the outside of your envelope. Part of the challenge of getting producers to read your screenplay is getting them to open the envelope that contains your Query Letter to even tell them about it. With the Deluxe Query Letter System, you will get a custom-written tagline, phrase, or attention-grabber for the outside of the envelope that will grab the attention of the recipient and increase the number of people who actually open and read your screenplay's query letter.
A complete, detailed report of exactly who you are sending to so you can follow up. Once we identify the best producers to market your script to, you will receive a detailed report with all the information you need to continue to follow-up and build relationships with them for as long as you wish.
A set of mail merged letters and envelopes personalize to the executives. After we've written your Query Letter and you have approved it and we've selected your list of producers, agents, and/or managers, then we will print the letters out, each one personally addressed to the individual executive we want to receive it. We also print out the envelopes with your return address and their address already on it to make it as effortless as possible for you. We send that package of them back to you for your final inspection, and your letters are ready for you to sign, seal, stamp, and mail directly to their offices in Hollywood.
A Confidential Certification from Smart Girls Productions that you will be marketing your script to these companies and individuals. Unlike some blind marketing systems where no one tells you who is seeing your script idea so you have no paper trail of who has seen your script or idea , this Certification gives you added protection should you ever need it. This Certificate shows the date you received your list of companies from Smart Girls, thus giving you a written record of the people and companies you submitted to should you ever need supporting evidence.
A Deluxe Query Letter Mailing Package Delivered To Your Doorstep. You will receive a package delivered to your front door with hundreds of personalized letters that you can instantly put your signature on and send out to Hollywood to get yourself in "the Game." You will feel a great sense of satisfaction knowing that you are finally putting your script out there. You will know you have taken a Big Step toward selling your screenplay for potentially hundreds of thousands of dollars and seeing it made into a REAL Hollywood movie.
Three Bonuses Worth Over $50.00, including:
Bonus#1: Producer Query Letters To Make Sure You Get Your Fullest Value. You will receive 5-10 Bonus Producers selected for your script in advance because we want to be certain that you get more letters than you have paid for. We give you these in advance so even if a few of them have moved in the past month or so, you will get more than what you paid for.
Bonus#2: 24-Page Guide on "Hollywood Wants To Read My Script: What Do I Do?" This 24-Page Guidebook covers such things as the most common mistake writers make when marketing their screenplays and an easy way to avoid it.

Why almost everyone is dead wrong about marketing to Hollywood, and what you should do to be confident you have a strategy that is right for you.

Some writers ask us: "Does this service really work?" or "Will it work for me?"
Since we started in 1992, we've maintained an 80% Success Rate of getting our clients' scripts in the hands of and read by legitimate Hollywood producers the very first time they mail out. And this is for people who have no connections whatsoever in Hollywood. Writers who have never sold a script or had one made into a movie. For those who have gotten options or had movies produced, great. But it's also fine if you are brand, spanking new.
The fact is that I cannot guarantee that a top Hollywood producer will buy your script for $250,000 (you should run from anyone who does), but I can tell you that your query letter will be sent to the real Hollywood producers targeted specifically for your script and you WILL be in the game. You will have your solid list of Hollywood producers to target and follow up with, not just once, but for as long as you wish. This will set you up for not just one quick shot, but you can work the people on that list for as long as you choose to.
The clients that we have worked with have had many different types of successes. Some things that could happen for you as it has for our other clients is that you could get your script read, you might get an "option," you could make an outright sale of your script them. Our clients have gotten their screenplays read by almost every major studio and production company in town, as well as by hundreds and hundreds of small producers who can be your "proxy," so to speak, and take your script around to the "Big People" in Hollywood.
So yes, we've helped all types of screenwriters at all levels take a big step forward their dream. We guarantee that when you do your query letter mailing that you will be dealing with current Hollywood execs who could potentially be the right person to champion it around town to get it made into a movie.

My writer clients have gotten their scripts optioned, had their scripts produced, they've gotten rewriting assignments, and writing assignments from the ground up. Others have gotten TV staff writing jobs, agents, first-look deals, and so on. And that's enough about my background. Let's get back to you!
