which market is for you

wanna be a model? which market is for you? find out here!
Although modeling is a fun job, it is a business and you should consider which market would be best for you and your business. Consider not only the big markets but also some smaller ones. You need to find out where your looks and personality are appreciated and where you will be happiest. Some markets may be small but quite lucrative. Athens and Barcelona are small markets but a good place to work on your book and earn some money while enjoying the culture. It really depens if you are just starting out or need to work on your book due to a new hair colour or cut.
Generally, it is best to get into an editorial market as cliets can see a variety of looks you can be perfect for. Commercial and adversiting clients have very little vison when it comes down to it, sometimes they will feel safer if they cann see a picture in your book which is exactly the kind of look they have in mind for their job. Bear this in mind when you decide to do a test.
Discuss your look with your agent. An agent in Germany will probaly err on the conservative side, as it is a commercial market, whereas an agent in Paris may recommend something more dramatic. Being distinctive in an editorial market is the whole point , but remember to consider your features and do something to compliment and strengthen your look.
