This issue we profile Toronto Model
Bookings, a somewhat unique modeling agency that seems to be "of the
internet age", somewhat between the traditional agencies and the
internet modeling portals. Lindsay Jolly is the owner, creator and booker for TMB. Toronto Model Bookings is a service I originally created in order to help the photographers I know eliminate or at least seriously cut down on the number of no-shows and cancellations they were experiencing from sites like OneModelPlace, Musecube and ModelMayhem. My goal was to cut this rate down from approximately 50% to almost nothing, in the process I was also able to help connect the repsonible, reliable models with more paid work. Over time the "roster" has developed and expanded to focus primarily on glamour and figure models to better suit our clients' needs. I started this service because I already had a large contact base for models in this area, as well as a great deal of knowledge in regards to who was who and how this industry works. I was hopeful that I could help all parties involved, models and clients. I am also a model myself, which brings a strong desire to help the models I work with, as well as a sincere concern for their personal safety, to the company. I have experience working with real world agencies as well as the hardships aspiring models can face in an attempt to break into the industry. All of these things have impacted my business decisions thus far and I am sure will continue to play a major role in how Toronto Model Bookings operates. |
