By the way, maybe I am poisoning the well, but I tell all girls that there is no money in modelling...
Ultimately, someone else gets rich off of it the second you sign the release form.
It would be wiser to do their own sites, but most lack the drive or know-how... and are rightfully weary of partnerships....
A smart girl, however, would do her own site, use a unique name, and have her own content with affliate links to every sponsorship program for sites she is on...
She could then at least earn $ for each signup she sent to the sites he posed for and make a % off the backend (in a roundabout way).
Granted, I don't see it happening--most models I know are broke and need the $150 (if they are in it for the money in the firstplace)... and I know a lot of girls running their own sites who just aren't doing well at all, and I give them advice but they don't get it.
Lately, I am enjoying taking my time and working with girls who are primarily in this because they want to be doing it to live out a fantasy... it is far less deperessing.
I am working on sites with two girls right now where I fronted no money whatsoever and am just hanging out with them and compiling pics... ultimately, we will split whatever money comes in.
