What comes next? Help!

I do some what agree with OEJ that anal now days plays a big part in the sex industry. But there are some rather big names out there who work for companies who don't (yet) - probably not that many who work for the majors.
And whilst looks do come into it, overall perfomance plays a major part too, a model can be amazingly good looking and amazingly crap at the same time.
But self promotion is the main thing here. To be fair, I'd never heard of you before you contacted me - but you did contact me, but I did have to look up who you was as no picture was enclosed, and without banging on about it, if you had sent that to 10 people, who many of them would have gone to the bother of looking you up?
Personaly having worked with you, I know your a good hard working reliable model. Hope you reach your "desired" goal.

im afraid dumped u in the scrap bin after booking a date for your second shoot with digi a while ago and u cancelled with excuse like ' I forgot I was shooting'

ultra reliable models like Suzie Best and chelsea Jewels had 10 + shoots each for digi so far and u didnt go beyond the first.

i can't see my sig being a problem
A) its hosted on my site
And if its the size
B) its shorter than it was before! The main reason i changed to using an image yesterday as its not the 30-40 words i previously had as a sig... Thats long...

A point well put tom. He was the shoot I allouded to in my oriningal post. I did yes cancel him twice, once I think because I had an STI scare and a second time for another genuine but unprovable situation (I forget what). As I put in my first post I then failed to contact him after sorting out these problems giveing yes the impression of not caring and being yes an unreliable model. Remebering who I am incontact with and continuing to keep them posted was one of my biggest failings when i started and something I have worked very hard to sort out and I can confidently say that following this particular insident I really beat myself up and have not let this knd of thign happen since. I felt and still do feel very bad about letting him down and have apoologised to him in the past and tried to make amends. From what I can see he has a very successful site and you are right I let a very good oportunity slip by. A models reputain is so important and I know that once tarnished it is next to impossible to get back. I have tried very hard to move forwards in thsi and some lessons have to be learnt the hard way. I am trying my hardest to leanr everythign I can in this inudstry and yes have made and probably will make a few more mistakes but so long as I learn from each of them they wont have been in vain. My main perpose in starting this post was to try and learn more when it comes to contacting people as Gi demonstrated by pointing out that in his case I forgot to make sure my picture was attached before contacting him. I have along way to go and am aware of it but so long as I continue to feel that im excelling in my actual paid work i will continue to slug away at my admin skills (which are gettign better thank goodness)

Tom we've all had models that cancel but you don't slate them on a public forum, thats just bad man!

I agree with Dani, Maisie - I'm just a humble punter but have loved your work ever since I got a glimpse of you on Killergram. I think you've got a great look and you obviously put 100% into your performance.

I'm not qualified to give advice on your original post as I'm not in the industry but from the point of view of an ordinary 30something fella who loves British Porn, I think you're one of the best out there - keep it up.

[Masie]

Of course I remember you Dani how are you, Tony that was a real big boost nice to know im on track x

Everyones said what you can do to promote yourself more to attract the big companies etc.

The reality is no matter what you do, porn models have a very limited working life. Its all to do with the people involved wanting to see new faces all the time. I dont know why no-one ever mentions this, probably because it makes it sound like models are used up and then discarded.

Have you come as far as you can. Its not for me to say but assuming you have, and still want to work full time in the business, try looking at the few long-term models that are still around now. Two famous ones i can think of get involved in their own sites, and get most of thier income from so called amateur b/g modelling.

You are very analytical whuich is impresssive so one thing you can try is looking at a film from a company you are targetting and rate youself compared to the model they used, for performance, figure, looks, limits (gangbang, swallowing, dp, fisting, are classic high end limits), etc.
If you are anywhere near what they use , why not make up a really showy sample film, maybe shot just for promotion and send it to em ?

good luck
