- Rule 2: Legitimate licensed modeling agents never charge money or require up front fees. They receive 10-20% commission on jobs they book for youafter you get paid for the job.
- Rule 3: Legitimate licensed model agents have relationships with casting directors, personal managers, photographers, producers and production companies. They can legally negotiate deals for you.
