you want a social girl who goes out a lot, a partier---bi-girl, raver type chicks are best for this. the girl should be average looking, not a 10, as that intimidates too many prospects. you give the girl a cheap $200 digicam and she talks to girls, takes a quick digital pic, and emails it to you. you give her a "yes" or "no" as the pix come in.
your "field rep" has a sample portfolio of the type of photography you need---show some nudes, and girl/girl. do not show explicit or boy/girl at this point. make sure your sample images are classy and high quality (penthouse style is good)---the girl must believe that she will become beautiful by working with you.
you pay your field rep $100 for each girl you she brings you that you can shoot.
as you photograph girls, and it goes well, they bring you more girls, you pay these your models $50 for each referral.
do NOT hire a guy for this job.

I think this sounds like the most productive way of finding new models as soon as the college near me is back in full session i will try it.
I currently just place classified ads in the local papers and get a TON on responses but only 1-2% of the people that actually come in for interviews are useable. If you do try classified ads be ready for 30-50 calls a day from the dumbest people on the face of this earth.
