About THE PRINT AD AGENCY™
Our Vision
At THE PRINT AD AGENCY™, a proud Black-owned modeling agency, we specialize in securing bookings for our models in national print advertising campaigns. The pay for these print ad campaigns typically ranges from $10,000 to $50,000 for a one-day booking. Unlike runway modeling, fashion shows, and showroom modeling, which often don't reach these pay levels, print ad bookings can be particularly lucrative. Additionally, print ad campaigns don't require rehearsals, setting them apart from the demands of fashion shows and runway work. This category of modeling is often overlooked by the average model. Our vision is to place our models in a variety of print ads for our clients, primarily consisting of advertising agencies, leveraging the expertise of the Ray Robinson modeling agency.
