Modeling Scams

Select Model Agent Review Technique (SMART)

SMART is the solution for the problem of poor performance and conflict of interest in convention scouts selecting and screening aspiring models for attendance at modeling conventions.

Failure rates are extremely high and too often expenses are too high. A lot of time and money is wasted. This is dumb.

SMART (Select Model Agent Review Technique) works by sending pictures of prospective models to model agents for review before convention payment and attendance.

Every agent scheduled to attend the modeling convention first must review snapshots of potential models and notify the convention organizers which people they believe have potential, may want to represent, and therefore want to see in person.

The aspiring model is then notified by the convention organizers how many agents want to see him or her in person; then told the cost of the convention; then offered a place at the convention.

SMART Online is a web-based review system, fast, affordable and efficient. It reduces the cost of basic non-professional snapshot photography, allowing convention scouts to take digital pictures of prospective models and upload them onto a website.

Select model agents then review the digital photos of the potential models online, and notify the convention organizers which people they believe have potential, may want to represent, and therefore want to see in person.
