About

Industry Parent started with a phone call

Bonnie Lia spent over two decades inside the child talent industry, on both sides of the table, before founding Industry Parent. It began, as most useful things do, with a phone call from another parent who didn't know where to start.

Every day parents ask the same question: “are your books open?” Ninety percent of the time the answer is no. What follows is always the same: where do we start, are we doing this wrong, can you recommend anyone else?

A space designed to demystify the agency world, break down the barriers that keep it feeling exclusive, and equip parents with the knowledge to feel properly supported.

There are no silly questions in this space. Only parents trying their best for their children.

I went from panicking about a contract at 11pm to having Bonnie's advice within the hour.
