Ocean Model Group wants all models to remember that they are young, creative professionals and as such there are certain protocols in communicating with your agency and clientele you should follow in order to succeed.Regardless of what people may say, in business, the old adage holds true, first impressions count!

These impressions begin before the interview.  As an Ocean model, you know our agency takes pride in meeting all potential girls prior to booking them to ensure quality.  The moment you contact an agency via email or telephone, they create their first impression.  So, it is best not to use the same email address you use with your friends, instead come up with something simple and professional for your future employer to see.  Email accounts are free so get as many as you need, and save the kinky name for your Facebook account!!

Speaking of Facebook, Myspace and other social networking tools, while they can be helpful in making connections, they can be harmful with the wrong content.  Make sure your accounts are labeled as private, or ensure they don’t have any inappropriate material like last weekend’s party pictures!  No boss wants an employee that may show up sloshed to a photo shoot!

Now, one last reminder… Use spell check!! This is one way that employers can gauge your seriousness and commitment.  If you’re a terrible speller make a draft in Word and then post.  The extra work goes a long way.  These tips will help you succeed at any Chicago Modeling Agency.
