PROMOTING NARCISSIST'S PLAYBOOK

THE MISSION: GET THIS FILM TO EVERYONE WHO NEEDS IT

You are the tip of the spear. Our goal is simple: get Narcissist's Playbook in front of as many people as possible.

To do that, we need two things:

1. AWARENESS - People need to know this film exists
2. RESOURCES - We need funding to reach them

WHY WE'RE DOING THIS OURSELVES

Hollywood and traditional distributors don't understand the value of this film or the size of our audience. They said there's no market. We know they're wrong.

So we're bypassing the gatekeepers and going directly to the communities that need this most.

We are not funded by a studio. We are not funded by a distributor. We are funded by people.

WHAT YOUR SUPPORT FUNDS

Every dollar raised goes directly toward reaching more people:

• Marketing & Outreach - Getting the word out to survivors, educators, therapists, organizations

• Self-Distribution - Platforms to host and screen the film online

• Online Events - Tools to organize virtual screenings and Q&As

• In-Person Screenings - Renting theaters for community events

• Ongoing Promotion - Sustained campaigns to keep building momentum

We're raising money as we go because this is a grassroots movement, not a studio release.

HOW TO TALK ABOUT THE FILM

Keep it simple and personal:

"This film exposes how narcissists target, groom, and control people. We talked to survivors, clinicians, and self-confessed narcissists who reveal their playbook on camera. The film takes you through the experience of what it's like to be fooled, so you understand exactly how people get manipulated and trapped. Once you see the pattern, you can't unsee it."

Why this matters:

Most survivors get asked, "How did you not see it? Why didn't you leave?" This film shows you exactly how it happens, so you stop blaming victims and start recognizing the tactics.

When talking about support:

"Hollywood said there's no market for this. We're proving them wrong by going directly to the people who need it. Every share, every donation helps us reach more survivors and future victims."

When someone asks why they should donate:

"This is about getting it to millions of people who are trapped in dynamics they can't name. Your support funds the marketing, distribution, and events that put this knowledge in their hands."
