I hope that you all are enjoying the beginning of Spring and some warmer weather (finally)!  Working at RedLine, we get the opportunity to view hundreds of qualified brand ambassadors and promotional models each day!  From my experience, I’ve compiled a few helpful pointers to help make your profile stand out and get you booked more often!

1. Following instructions can be a great help!  Whether via a blast or a posting on job boards, we post specific instructions to assist in a more fluid booking process.  Following these instructions indicates that you can also follow instructions in the field.  They also help you get booked quicker!  If we don’t have to search for your availability, recent headshots, or resume, we are able to spend more time getting you booked for the position!
2. Your pictures are key! In the promotional industry, clients desire very specific looks for certain events.  From trying to find girls who resemble twins, to guys who represent a skater-style look, the client knows what they want!  Sending the right pictures is crucial in getting you booked!  Specifically for RedLine, we are looking for a mix of everything.  Narrowed down to 3, I suggest you send 1 non-professional head shot, 1 non-professional full length shot, and 1 shot (can be professional) that shows your personality/best side.  Choosing pictures that accurately represent what you look like are ultimately what we need.  Don’t get me wrong, we love your Halloween pictures, they’re just not our top picks!
3. Great phone interviews rock! We want to hear your personality shine through the phone.  I like to think, “Smile through the phone!”   We’re excited about the opportunity to work with you and we hope you are too!  So, make sure to let us know that through your phone interview!

With these 3 helpful hints, I hope you all will have more effective and efficient booking processes!  If there’re ever any questions, shoot us an email!  We’ll be glad to help you out!

Have a great week!

If you’re like most people, chances are you made a New Year’s resolution this year.  In addition, if you’re like most people, chances are you won’t actually keep the resolution you made!  Maintaining change in your life is something that doesn’t often come easily, but is something that we seek each New Year.   Below, I’ve compiled a list of helpful hints on how to make and keep lasting change for this New Year!

1. Set the bar high, but not too high!  Being realistic is a key point in achievability.  Make sure to set a resolution that will stretch you, but one that will not break you.
2. Take it day by day.  If you only look at the end result, you are more likely to not obtain the results that you want.  In stead, take it step-by-step and day-by-day.  The old saying proves true, “Rome wasn’t built in one day!”
3. Tell a friend what you’re trying to accomplish!  Accountability is a great key in success.  Having a friend to keep you in line will help on those days that are harder than others!

While you’re working hard on your resolutions, remember to have fun and to treat yourself!  Keeping true to your New Year’s resolutions and making lasting change will help build character.  Don’t be part of the 37% that stop after the first month!

And on a business note, our calendars are filling up – so get ready for new events in your area!
