By Sharon Wilson


If you are the type of a person that like being self-employed, there are several business opportunities that you can delve in. However, if you are a fashion lover, starting a Modeling Agency in Nashville is the best idea for you. One may think that starting this kind of bureau is difficult, but the steps are almost similar to other businesses. Therefore, instead of thinking that it is difficult, be positive and start the fashion bureau so that you can even create employment opportunities for the local models who are very talented and the upcoming talents.

To start with, it is wise to plan before starting the business because without a plan; you will not know where you can start. This will involve you gaining experience by working in a fashion company that is already established so that you can learn a few ground rules like how they find talents and how they can handle the talent-related problems as well as seeing work for the models.

Next, you should be aware of the kind of bureau you wish to operate since there are some categories. For example, you can decide to open an office that deals with both male and female talents of ages 15-35 or single genders of the same age bracket. You may also choose to hire 4o plus are plus-size models.

Once you have picked your category, you will also be required to come up with a list of expenditures that are necessary for staring the bureau. Do not forget to include your monthly rent, renovation costs, the costs for scouting and hiring talents, hiring a photographer, marketing costs, utility and equipment costs, and internet costs among others.

Make sure you have written a formal business plan so that you can keep your business on track especially when you apply for a loan for the business. The plan should capture the amount of money you intend to charge the models as well as clients for services.

After you are done creating the business plan, and you have the experience, it is now time to implement the plan. If you do not have enough funds, you can secure a loan so that you can get started. Then, find a location for the business then obtain a working permit, insurance and other licenses that are mandatory.

Start hiring any staff that will be required like a photographer. Then, start looking for talents, interview them and choose the ones you are impressed with. You may then start advertising your bureau either in television advertisements or on your internet website as well as online classifieds. Make sure that the personnel and talents you hire are the best.

With the hired talents, start looking for work form local clients. Create portfolios that you will show all potential clients and network with all local businessmen and inquire whether they will require models for their advertisements during business events. Also, look for other jobs that will require modeling talent.
