The advantages and disadvantages of talent management modelling
by Myron G. Internet Marketing WarriorEvery type of modelling has its own advantages and
disadvantages. We are going to look at these from the talent management
modelling perspective.
Talent
management
Model management has both its pros and cons. Some
people might feel trapped by another planning their career and future, without
having any say in it while others believe it is a benefit to have a manager
planning everything to a tee. In addition to career planning model management
also includes additional training and classes, the training in itself is a big
advantage of model management, but the
costs involved can be high and difficult to plan for.
Talent management modelling gives the model the full
package deal in the services of a manager. The manager will also arrange travel
and accommodation related to modelling jobs that removes excess stress from the
model and ensures that the model arrives at the shoot in a calm and collected
state. Even though some people
appreciate others planning their day to functions; it can be a problem for
models with control issues.
Safety
The agency are there
to ensure the safety and protection of their models, this includes ensuring
that all jobs are legitimate and even proving chaperones to accompany the models to modelling jobs. Additional safety benefits of talent
management modelling include information and tips on what photographers and
training institutions to use, as some of these are also out to hurt or mislead
the models. The cons of having a chaperone around mean a possible block in the
creative flow of the model.
Better
modelling jobs
One of the benefits of model management is the
possible provision of better modelling jobs. The training suggested by the
manager will ensure that the model is more multi-functional or specialised in
specific skills sets. The cons of better jobs might mean additional travel,
more commissions payable and less time available to go to castings. Having a
lot of high paying talent management modelling jobs might also require the
payment of taxes on your earnings.
Advertising
A function of a model agency includes marketing and
advertising the model to ensure that they find more work or sign contracts with
multiple booking agencies. This advertising and marketing might mean a bigger
salary in your pocket. The con of advertising is that you might be needed on
short notice to take part in auditions and casting sessions.
Payment
Talent management modelling sometimes benefits the
model by providing them higher paying jobs. Agencies and management companies
are known to have better insights and connections in the market that enables
them to place higher prices on their models because of the quality and
consistency of the work delivered. A con
of higher payment means you have to pay more commission to the agency and manager. 20 %
might not be much on a small job, but when it comes to the bigger ones
it might hurt your earnings.
