Holiday Season Survival Guide

Thanksgiving was just a few days ago which means the holidays are here! There are tons of events and promotions around this time and some of them are long term. Here are a few things for all promotional models to remember when working during this busy season.

1. Don't overbook yourself. Money always sounds good but working 10 days in a row at 12 hours a day isn't good for anyone. Book wisely.


2. Make sure you leave earlier than usual, holiday season means everything is busier and there is more traffic.


3. Bring snacks, you will need your energy.


4. Make sure you have black pants because most promotions will ask you to wear these.


5. If you have to work outside wear as much as possible. Layers of socks, leggings, long sleeves, gloves, hats, hand warmers...anything you can think of.


6. Get lots of sleep, you will need a lot of patience during this time. It can get pretty crazy.


7. Save your money from the holiday season, things tend to slow down after this.

These 7 steps will help you survive the next 26 days of the holiday season. Good luck!

Busy Weekend For Our Chicago Models!

Usually things slow down after Summer but we are still extremely busy! This weekend we will have promotional models all over Chicago. We have 2 big events starting on Sunday.

We will have Pink Avenue Models at the Great Bridal Expo in Rosemont. This show has been going on for over 30 years and anyone planning a wedding should definitely go. The exhibitors are companies that provide anything you would need for your wedding including DJs, dance lessons, honeymoon, accessories, dresses, bakeries, rings, videography, reception locations, real estate agents and anything else you could think of. This show is a lot of fun and our models will have an amazing time.

We will also have models at the AHA show starting on Sunday. This show will take place at McCormick Place and will take place November 14-16. This show brings will have over 25,000 attendees and is geared towards the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular disease. Our models will be working as hostesses at one of the biggest booths of the trade show. Good luck girls!

Have an amazing weekend and if you are at either if these events make sure you say hi to our models.
