so much information moving around us at all times, it seems almost impossible to
remember or read all that comes at us in one days time.
So it's best to share what you know with someone else, and they can share what
they know with you. So together we all move on with our lives without major
mistakes and avoiding downfalls and pitfalls.
I'd like to share with you somethings I know, and somethings I think I might
understand.
I have been asked about starting a modeling agency, but found that it's just too
much of one sort of work for me. I do put on modeling shows, but I do not have
to track models, I do not have to contact models to be there, they already know
that these events are for networking, photo opportunities, socializing and
having fun too.
I know that a modeling agency shouldn't ever get paid by the model. A modeling
school like Barbazon or other companies are a different story. So watch out for
such companies that 'guarantee' you a job, or hit you with a fee. I did hear of
one agency claiming that the 'fee' charged to the model was for the on-line
portfolio cost, I might believe that, but... do not be led down a road where you
pay more than $15 for that service, even then... you are their bread and butter,
so it shouldn't cost you a thing.

Why dont you try go in on the agency with someone else? But first work out the
contact lists and the like. Mention it to models that you have worked with and
ones that participate in your model shows.
I dont see why a new modelling agency shouldnt take at least a little bit of
money, im sure the models would understand it. Like yes its a chance but sure
could work out well?Howdy.I'm a 18 year old half asian from Ireland who really would love to get with an agency who can get her exposure or anything please look at my profile and get back to me  |

the models!
... Who pays the costs for office and stuff
And it takes a lit of time and costs, to do good work in that business.
And there are many unqualified people writing rubbisch 
... Maybe to bring themself in a better light  Tomorrow must be the longest day  because everything is scheduled on it  |

Company pays the company and agency pays the model, that's what I said. |
