I have been looking for the right advice regarding the entertainment industry and I finally found the right company. Act Outside the Box is the perfect place to learn about the business and how to create connections. Take Lisa's workshops and you will be on the fast track to reaching your goals. Thank you!

As always, your workshops are extremely enlightening and a lot of fun. I love your warm, bright energy and how well you present the information. Your seminars are always so jam packed with useful info and I thank you so much for doing these kinds of programs.
Marcin P.
Being a newer actor, its very confusing and frustrating to figure out the right steps to start off a successful career. One class with Lisa Gold solved that problem for me and put me ahead of the curve over other actors. I came in confused, but thanks to Lisa, I left with a real plan.

Thank you for helping me implement some concrete ways to develop myself and the business I'm creating. At 51 years of age I finally feel like I am taking the right steps! I've taken a lot of courses but your sincerity and genuine affection for people is astounding. You helped me to address some of my fears as well as my ignorance. Thank you, thank you. Transforming!!!

Lisa, I found today extremely helpful. I feel re-energized and motivated to push ahead and I thank you so much for that. Some things I heard I already knew, but there was other info, new and insightful and delivered in a really positive way, which in think is really rare.

Soooo informative! There is so much I didn't know. Now I feel more privy to the “secrets” of the business and how to approach getting work in a different way.
