Smells fishy to me.

You can get it for free? That was the part that I didn't know.

I had a hard time finding commercial fishing boats in Phoenix.  Then I realized that's because there aren't many fish there.

Agencies don't go where there aren't many jobs.

are they going to provide you with contacts that you can use in North Carolina?

Agencies, regardless of size or market, have one thing in common. If you are outside of their 'hub', they can't use you.

I've found that even if you're exactly what they need for a job, you won't get the call if you're beyond their comfort zone!

They say that they give me the list of agencies that want to contact me based on my comp cards.

Scam, in my opinion. Google agencies ... they're listed. Also read the site that was recommended: www.newmodels.com  Good luck, Tim

yep, that's info you can find for free: phone book, internet, reading the Boards here, etc. ...

for example: Evolution (Charlotte) and Directions (Greensboro) are reportedly the two biggies there in N.C.; check into them to see if you'd be compatible with their interests ...

no payment required. well, hmm,..., okay, a 'big bowl of Hatteras Clam Chowder & a glass of sweet tea', said the lil camera with ties in Lenoir County ----- smile!

Also read the "Info" area above... which you haven't done yet.

It contains info on how to do things like change your display name.

Even worse.

Here's a free list of all the agencies anywhere near you that would be likely to sign a 5'4", 137-pound model:
