Depends on where you live, what you want to do (stage, tv, commercials, film, industrials, etc.) and how serious you are about doing it.

You'll need to get a headshot and resume together for starters, and you'll want to find opportunities to showcase your talent. Take acting classes... network with other actors... find agents and managers and think about who you want to target. Learn who all the important casting directors are in your area and read up on what projects are happening... I read the Hollywood Reporter and Variety religiously in the 90s. I also used to get creative when I was able to get on the lots like at Paramount, Sony, Warner Brothers etc. and would find ways to get my pic and resume in front of the right people. These are just a few things to think about
