What's the daily average of auditions your agent(s) are sending you?

Pretty much "incalculably low". If asked I will always oblige.

Well, I only get auditions from my agent. Some days 20, some days none. I never think about it. The days I get none gives me more time to market and write. Some days when I get 20 I cannot get to them all. No matter how many auditions, I'm never not busy. I'm in my office working most days from 5am-6pm.

A valuable lesson in that closing sentence.

"I'm in my office working most days from 5am-6pm."

First rule of both life and work. "SHOW UP!"

"I'm in my office most days working from 5am-6pm"

same, Bob.

Feel like I should be getting more from them. I get maybe 4-6 per week between both agencies.

Have you had a chat with them? Do you feel they aren't sending you what you should be reading? Categories and genres you know you are right for, but they aren't sending you? And if so, do your demos reflect this?

Have you taken them to dinner to discuss career???? If not, you should. If after all of this you still aren't satisfied, perhaps it is time to shop for new reps.

Also just checked your site. NO agents listed that I could find. Odd! Why not????? If I were your agent, I'd be really pissed. It's like a slap in the face that you aren't interested in doing your part of this agent/client relationship.

Good point. I'm updating site these days. Will build that in.
