Pages101 Is Here: One Home Base For Your Young Actor's Career
If you've followed Child Actor 101 for a while, you know I write a lot about the habits of successful actors.
Stay organized.
Keep your materials current.
Communicate proactively.
Make your representative's job easier.
These habits separate the actors who get submitted, called back, and booked from the ones who get lost in the inbox.
But there's a problem I see in nearly every family I work with.
The habits are right.
The tools are wrong.
Most actor families are managing everything across five different places. Headshots in one folder. Resume PDFs somewhere else. Audition notes buried in text threads. Callback information hidden in old emails. Booking history scattered across spreadsheets nobody opens.
It isn't a discipline problem.
It's a systems problem.
That's why we built Pages101.
What Pages101 Is
Pages101 is a free actor page builder and private career tracker designed specifically for young performers and the families who manage their careers.
It does two things at once.
Publicly, it gives your actor one professional link to send anywhere — to casting directors, agents, managers, coaches, photographers, industry contacts. Headshots. Resume credits. Reels and clips. Representation. Casting profile links. A safe contact relay that protects your child's personal information.
One clean, professional online home base. Built for the industry.
Privately, it gives your family a Career Tracker. A real one. Auditions, callbacks, producer sessions, avail checks, bookings, casting contacts, notes, and statistics — all in a single dashboard you and your representatives can actually use.
This is the part that surprises families the most.
For years I've watched parents try to track auditions in notes apps, spreadsheets, group texts, and memory.
It doesn't work.
Information falls through the cracks. Patterns go unnoticed. Important context is lost the moment a callback gets scheduled.
Pages101's Career Tracker fixes that.
Built Around The Habits That Already Work
If you've read The Habits of Successful Actors, you'll recognize what Pages101 is actually doing.
It isn't a new system to learn.
It's a tool that supports the habits you should already be building.
Keep your casting profiles updated — your Pages101 page becomes the single source of truth your representatives can reference for current headshots, sizes, union status, contact info, and special skills.
Have strong acting samples available — embed your demo reel, comedic and dramatic scenes, About Me video, voiceover reel, and singing clip in one organized place. Categorized the way casting actually thinks about them.
Keep your headshots fresh — upload your current commercial, theatrical, light theatrical, and character-specific looks. Swap them out the moment new ones come back from your photographer.
Book out early and often — the Career Tracker becomes the family record of what your actor has on the calendar, what's pending, and what's wrapped.
Update. Update. Update. — every change you make is live the moment you save it. Your representatives, your child's coaches, and any casting director you share the link with always see the most current version.
The habits don't change.
The tools just finally catch up.
The Career Tracker
This is the part I'm most excited about.
For years I've watched families guess their way through audition seasons.
How many auditions did your child have this year?
What was their callback rate?
Which casting offices have brought them back more than once?
What were the projects that came closest to booking?
Most parents can't answer those questions.
Pages101 can.
The Career Tracker logs every audition with the fields that actually matter — project, role, casting director, casting office, project type, role size, audition stage, format (self-tape, in-person, or virtual), outcome, and the notes you'll wish you had six months later.
Over time, the patterns become visible.
You stop guessing.
You start seeing.
And when a representative asks how your year is going, you have an actual answer.
Safety Built In
Pages101 was built specifically for young performers, which means safety is the default, not a setting you have to find.
Your actor's personal contact information is never published.
Parent messages route through a secure relay form — casting and industry contacts can reach you without ever seeing your email or phone number.
Exact birthdates are never stored or displayed. Age ranges only.
And every page is hidden from Google search by default. You can choose to make it discoverable, but that's a deliberate choice — not something that happens accidentally.
A generic website builder treats your actor like a small business.
Pages101 treats them like a child.
Three Page Styles
Every Pages101 account starts with Classic — clean, professional, and free forever. Designed to look at home in a casting director's inbox.
Upgrade to Plus and you unlock two more styles:
Splash — bold, youthful, and personality-forward. The right fit for actors whose brand leans warm and energetic.
Prestige — full-bleed hero photo, editorial typography, magazine-style layout. The look most often associated with established working actors.
All three styles share the same content, the same safety controls, and the same Career Tracker. Switch between them in one click without losing a single headshot, credit, or audition entry.
What's Free, What's Plus
Every account includes:
A professional actor page
One-click Resume101 import
Child-safe contact relay
Career Tracker (5 audition entries free, unlimited on Plus)
Classic Free — $0 forever
Great for getting started. Includes the Classic page style, custom accent colors and fonts, 3 headshots, 2 video links, all the safety controls, and one performer page.
Plus — $49/year
For active performers and multi-sibling families. Unlocks Splash and Prestige page styles, custom domain connection, unlimited headshots and clips, the curated updates feed, sibling support for up to 4 performer pages, unlimited audition tracking, and removes the Pages101 footer credit. Cancel anytime.
Safety is always free.
That part isn't negotiable.
How Pages101 Fits With The Rest Of Child Actor 101

Resume101 keeps your actor's resume credits current and casting-ready. Import them into Pages101 with one click.
Prep101 helps you break down audition sides with a structured, coaching-grade preparation process. Custom guides for the auditions you actually have coming up.
Reader101 teaches parents how to be a better reader for self-tapes.
The whole point of Child Actor 101 has always been the same — give families the tools that talent managers and coaches use every day, without the gatekeeping.
Pages101 is the missing piece.
