Hey! We've been expecting you! Join the Collective for just $97 per month for a 90 day committment.
When work is slow, your momentum shouldn’t be.
First Team Collective keeps trained actors booking-ready with mentorship, structure, and community that move like the work does.
Led by working actor DaJuan Johnson (100+ IMDb credits, 7 seasons).
Is This You?
- You’re well trained and close—but the yes keeps slipping.
- You want that first network credit and real support to get there.
- Self-tapes vanish into silence; you want clear, actionable notes.
- Motivation dips between opportunities; you want accountability to keep shipping.
- You were dropped by an agent (or outgrew yours) and need a smart path to new reps.
- Your materials are fine—not “absolute yes” yet.
- You’d rather learn from working actors and industry pros than internet theory.
- You want a community that keeps you moving when the market is slow.
What You Get Inside First Team Collective
Live Mentor Q&A (90 minutes, monthly)
Use it for: your biggest blocker—self-tape choices, scene beats, headshot/reel decisions, rep outreach, mindset.
Result: you leave with an exact next step to execute before the next call.
Industry Insider Sessions (Quarterly)
Use it for: current intel from working actors, casting, agents/managers, showrunners, and directors.
Result: you adjust your materials and tape approach to what’s booking now.
Resource Hub (24/7)
Use it for: targeted training across five modules—Foundation, Absolute Yes Package, Craft, Team, Credit.
Result: you fix specific gaps on your schedule without waiting for live time.
Your Tribe (Private Community)
Use it for: accountability, peer insight, and real-world examples (cover letters, mock interview scripts, outreach emails).
Result: you keep momentum between opportunities and stop second-guessing alone
Red Carpet Path
Use it for: a clear, step-by-step path so you always know what’s next (and what to stop doing).
Result: you spend time on the few moves that actually move you toward that first credit.
Think Bigger Vault
Use it for: past guest sessions and resources you can apply immediately.
Result: quick wins when you need a specific tactic or example.
Note: This is a membership, not weekly 1:1 coaching. You get live access, guidance, and community support within sessions and the hub.
How This Helps in a Slow Market
You can’t control audition volume. You can control your craft, your package, your relationships, and your readiness. First Team Collective keeps you moving on those controllables—so when opportunity opens, you’re first in the room.
- Live Mentor Q&A: targeted next steps so you’re not guessing what to do this week.
- Industry Insider Sessions: hear what’s landing right now and align your approach.
- Resource Hub: level up tapes, breakdowns, branding, materials, and outreach—on your schedule.
- Your Tribe: accountability between opportunities so you keep shipping.
- Red Carpet Path: prioritize what matters and cut busywork.
- Think Bigger Vault: fill skill gaps fast and keep momentum steady.
Bottom line: even when the industry is quiet, you’re getting sharper, clearer, and more visible—so when the call comes, you’re ready.
The Five Core Modules
1
The Foundation
Clarify your essence, sharpen your brand, and set a focused career direction—so your choices read on camera and on paper.
2
The Absolute Yes Package
Make your materials earn a “yes before the room.” Polish your headshot, resume, reel, website, and IMDb so reps and CDs immediately see fit.
3
The Craft
Level up self-tapes and audition performance. Nail script breakdowns, on-camera choices, and mock rooms so your work looks booking-ready.
4
The Team
Build the right support around you. Use templates for cover letters, mock interview scripts, and outreach emails to approach reps with confidence.
5
The Credit
Follow a practical path to your first (or next) network credit—focus effort where it counts with insider insight and step-by-step guidance.
What Happens After You Join
Immediate access to the community and the Resource Hub
Calendar with dates for Monthly Mentor Q&A and Quarterly Industry Insider Sessions (replays provided)
Post your current focus so mentors and members can point you to the right training
Meet DaJuan Johnson
Hey, I’m DaJuan. I’m a working actor, acting teacher, and certified transformational life coach.
I’ve built a career with 100+ IMDb credits and 7 seasons on a hit network series. What I didn’t have coming up was someone who was working to sit with me, look at my materials, and help me make smarter choices. I wanted community and guidance I could trust. I built First Team Collective to be the space I wish I had — a professional rhythm for actors who are ready to work, not wait..
What you can expect from me:
Straight answers.
No fluff. What I’m seeing on set and hearing from the rooms.
Real guidance in real time.
Bring your questions to the monthly mentor Q&A and leave with next steps.
Practical notes.
Tapes, materials, mindset—the stuff that actually moves the needle.
Industry voices I trust.
Quarterly sessions with working actors, casting, reps, and creatives, so you hear what’s working right now.
If you’re trained, hungry for that first network credit, and ready to keep moving even when the industry is quiet, I’d love to work with you inside the Collective.
Proof From Members
Try the collective — Totally Risk-Free
This membership is everything I know about building a sustainable acting career.
Everything I’ve used to book work, to show up ready for seven seasons on a hit series, and to help other actors do the same.
I can’t guarantee bookings — no one can.
But I can guarantee you’ll have the exact tools, guidance, and community that have led me and my actors to book work consistently.
And I believe it can happen for you, too.
You’re going to love being in this space.

No hoops. No hard feelings.
FAQs
Why another membership?
Momentum is built between jobs. You get live guidance, a clear path, and a 24/7 hub you can use on your schedule—plus a community that keeps you accountable.
Will you review self-tapes and give feedback?
Occasionally we run self-tape review sessions, but no — that isn’t a weekly event inside First Team Collective (yet).
During live sessions we focus on tape strategy, performance behavior, and common issues, with notes that move your next tape forward.
Will we work with DaJuan directly?
Yes. DaJuan leads two sessions monthly; a community check in and a Mentor session where we get work done! You’ll also learn from the Think Bigger team and quarterly industry guests.
Is there an annual plan?
Enrollment is $97/month. If an annual option is added later, we’ll note it here.
Is this mostly for LA?
No. Sessions are virtual and principles apply across markets (LA, NYC, regional). Replays are provided.
What if it’s not for me?
10-day risk-free trial. Email in**@th*****************.com within 10 days for a full refund. No hoops.
