Go to “The Hollywood Creative Directory”. There,
you will find listings of producers, what they’ve
produced, and their contact information. Select
the producer or producers who have produced
genres similar to yours.

To contact them, write a query letter. If you need
some guidance with this, read my
query letter article, “Anatomy of
How To Write An Irresistible Query
Letter” on my website. You can
also find it in “How To Sell
Your Screenplay” by Joan Wilen
and Lydia Wilen at Barnes & Noble.

Fax, snail mail (be sure and enclose
a SASE), or email the letter to your list of
selected producers. Give them 2 weeks to
respond. If they do not, then contact them.
Tell them that you are contacting them to
see if they received your query and that you
would like an update on it. Then, go from
there.

If you would rather call producers, then,
write up a short script for yourself. Many
of the gatekeepers who answer the phone
can be pretty tough on callers. Simply
make them feel like they can benefit
from your call. They love to “discover”
someone like you and take you to their
boss.
