If you reading this blog then we’re pretty sure you fall into one of these three categories:
1. You’re on board with us and have enjoyed some fantastic modelling jobs with some of the best brands around.
2. You’ve already registered with us and are eagerly waiting for our clients to pick you after we’ve put you forward for the most suitable jobs.
3. You’re genuinely curious about modelling, so you want to know a little bit more about us and the industry, and whether we’re the best fit for your expectations.
We don’t really need to go all-out to tell everyone why choosing Models Direct is the best step for models. We’re comfortable in our work. In fact, we’ve been proud to serve our clients and models for more than 33 years. And we’re growing year on year, reflecting the depth of demand and the growing number of brands that come to us first when they’re in need of talented models.
However, there are a few pointers that readers should know – or be reminded of. These are useful for both experienced models and newcomers.
We’re a progressive modelling agency with the right team to deliver, but we’re not infallible. We can’t predict the future, but there are some statements that we can say with certainty:
1. We’re the only national modelling agency in the UK so we have active commercial modelling jobs available to models all around the country. We’re not restricted by location. We’re based in Norwich, but we receive many new assignments daily asking for models to work in just about any part of the UK, and even abroad. Jobs can be in major cities like London, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Newcastle and Liverpool, or they could be in more secluded destinations. It’s a major advantage for our models. We’re a national agency, with thousands of talent taking advantage of our widespread opportunities.
2. Diversity is key to our success. There are no “typical” looks for models. We do have many clients looking for everyday looks, but those clients also need just about any type of model for their marketing purposes. These can be – and frequently are – babies, older children, teenagers, models living with any disability, models of diversity, and even fabulous pets. We cater for every type of model, giving our models the best chance to be picked by brands.
3. Our registration fees for those who are selected work out at about £1 / week. This covers administration purposes and makes for an affordable way to be seen by clients – something that is extremely difficult to do without us. Because clients rely on us to recommend the best models, they approach us in the first instance.
4. Clients have busy schedules. We make their marketing processes easier by giving them a handful of suitable models to pick from. This means they don’t spend money and time advertising for models: the right models are already on our books – and that right model can only be you if you’re on our books.
5. Our own processes are uncomplicated. From registration to giving models relevant information prior to their assignments, to during the job and receiving reviews after completion, we make everything as effective as possible. No fuss, no problems.
6. Our team are always available to answer queries. We love technology, but the human touch can’t be beaten.
Brands are constantly looking for the right models to help them with their projects. Join us and we’ll put you forward whenever the right job becomes available.
We’ve been industry-leaders since 1990. As our clients keep looking to expand, we keep looking for more models to help them progress in their business.
