P. 4
A model must be alert, intelligent, resourceful,
reliable, good-natured and must also have a great
deal of common sense and a good sense of humour!
Am I really cut out for this?
Who does the agency represent and how much work
do they get?
Who are the agency's clients?
Is the agency asking for money up front or are they
confident enough to invest money in me?
Do they have a proper office or are they just using
a mobile phone number?
Those who do fit the bill must then go on to learn
the various skills models need to survive and thrive
in a business with high running costs and high
expectations. But do take no for an answer!
There are hundreds of so-called model agencies out
there who make money by charging up front fees
(useless photographs, model courses, etc) rather
than finding work for hopeful would-be models.
Believe us, if you fit these criteria and are capable
of making a decent living as a model, good model
agents will be beating a path to your door.
They certainly won't turn you away. cont’d
