Our History
I had observed 2 friends of mine attempt to get started into modeling and watched as they did what so many model hopefuls do – find an agency. Like so many other novice models they found themselves a company who sold them on the concept of classes and educational training for a fee in order to get their modeling careers off the ground (and like many others they bought).
They signed contracts and paid thousands of the dollars over 3 years to buy education/training products and at the end of their term had little show for their investment. Frustrated by the experience, they left when their contract terms where up and, slightly wiser, set out to find a better way to follow their dream. At the time of their exit from this “agency” I offered to leverage my marketing contacts to help them try and find actual legitimate opportunities to get their foot in the door somewhere. That favor turned into a 30-hour per week second job and a fulfillment of my passion for helping people.
