How do professionals break into theater or entertainment marketing in a city like New York without prior industry connections, and what experiences in college actually make the biggest difference when applying for those roles?
I have a strong interest in theater and entertainment marketing because I have been heavily involved in the performing arts throughout high school, including musical theater, choir, and leadership roles. As I start college in New York City, I want to be intentional about building experience early on in this field, especially since I do not currently have existing industry connections and am eager to learn the best ways to break into the industry.

Best way to enter the entertainment industry on the business side
Hi everyone, I am currently a junior in college, and my professional future seems to be directed towards advertising. After an internship in marketing in general, I am interning this summer in an ad agency, on the data analysis side. Yet, my dream is to work in the entertainment industry, on the business side, either as an agent or in a studio. I was wondering what you would recommend to enter this industry where network is everything. Is it worth it to start as an assistant (at the bottom of the food chain) and then become an agent, potentially later switching to a studio? Or would you recommend starting in another industry (advertising for instance) and then switch over at a later date, probably higher up in the hierarchy? And more generally, what is your opinion on this industry? Thank you very much for your help! #marketing #entertainment #advertising #career-change #entertainment-industry #digital-advertising #entertainment-marketing
