Flashback Friday!

The team at Pink Avenue Models is frustrated with this Chicago weather just like everyone else in this amazing city. Since it's Friday and we like to reminisce we thought we would take a look back at warmer days. This picture is from 4 years ago at an outdoor event in Chicago. The promotional models spent a weekend educating consumers about Axe body spray and handing out samples. It was a great event!

Awesome Website For All Promotional Models

The team at Pink Avenue Models usually blogs about upcoming trade shows and events but we like to write about fashion and beauty tips as well. We think that the promotional modeling industry needs to know about what is going on with our company but we want them to also gain tips of how to succeed as a promotional model and how to succeed in life. Today I came across a post on instagram that intrigued me and I ended up on a new website. This is a website that I think all girls can appreciate. There are fashion tips, make up tips, travel tips, life tips, and even a book club. This is a website that I am excited to visit again and I hope some of you enjoy it too. www.laurenconrad.com Team Pink Avenue

Flashback Friday! NACS - Chicago!

NACS is one of the best trade shows to work and it will be back in Chicago this Fall. This show is full of energy, music, and has a professional but relaxed crowd. If you are a promotional model and haven't worked this convention yet try and work it this year. Here is a picture from the last time this show was in Chicago. Enjoy! promotional models. trade show models, event staffing, chicago, trade shows, events, promotions Team Pink Avenue

The Best Of New York Fashion Week!

Pink Avenue Models is primarily a promotional modeling agency. We staff promotional models for trade shows, events, promotions, corporate parties, street teams and anything else that is requested by our clients. Well, almost anything else, we do have rules here! A lot of our models are also interested in acting and other types of modeling, we love hearing their success stories or seeing them on tv. Here is an article that I loved reading, it is very uplifting and inspiring and to be honest I was shocked to see it. These models look amazing! This is what happens when models with disabilities take over New York Fashion Week. http://www.cosmopolitan.com/style-beauty/fashion/news/a36641/photos-of-models-with-disabilities-owing-the-runway/

Do Your Research

The team at Pink Avenue Models spends some time checking out the job boards on Facebook and we notice the same questions being asked over and over. The main question that we see is about an agency and if they pay. We see so many promotional models asking other models if they have been paid from certain events or specific agencies. You have to be smarter when booking work. Do some research! A lot of people see a posting and it sounds like an amazing event with decent pay but you have to see more than that. What is the point of working an event if you never get paid? Some posts mention that they are waiting for checks from Summer or early 2014, that is unacceptable! Promotional modeling isn't always an easy job and you deserve to be paid! Make sure you research the company that you are working for before you agree to work, google them, ask peers, look at their social networking websites and see if there is negative feedback. Just be smart. Team Pink Avenue
