Bogus Agencies

Bogus Agencies

Because modeling agencies have classified themselves as management companies rather than talent agencies, they escape licensing requirements, caps on commissions, and other requirements that would safeguard their talent. Still, some agencies are better than others. Be sure to visit an agency’s website to see if they represent any recognizable faces, and ask to speak with models on their roster to gauge their experience of working through that agency.

Bogus Agency Contracts

Most agency contracts are one-sided in favor of the agency, not the model. Do not sign an agency contract without first getting the advice of a lawyer, and know that the terms of an agency contract are negotiable. A legitimate agency will give you adequate time to review the contract with an attorney and offer any proposed changes before you decide whether to sign with them.
