How To Keep Models At An Agency

How do you keep models at an agency?

We all learned a big lesson from the first breed of the super models in the mid-eighties. When the models were being stolen by other agencies so, you had compete with it. It's a very expensive thing for a model agency to have to put up with because now, during the shows, any good girl is surrounded by an army of their bookers taking care of them from being stolen by another agency. That's a relatively new thing and I think that started in the early eighties. It's not great for a business in this country to have to send its staff out around the world babysitting, because you're not really achieving much business hanging around backstage making sure another agency isn't handing their card to your star property.
