Pitching Tip for Models: Ride a Purple Cow
Tags: Babes | Blogging | Filipina | Marketing | models | Purple-CowThere’s a million hot naked chicks on the Internet. There’s a difference between those girls and me. Those chicks don’t talk back to you. — Tila Tequila, Queen of MySpace.
I’ve been getting a lot of email pitches from young Filipina models hoping to be featured in the Babes category of this blog. Let me give you a tip, girls: it takes more than regular print and ramp model credentials to get my readers’ attention. Traditional aspiring models are a dime a dozen. You need to do something remarkable, in the sense that it’s worth making a remark about. Ride a purple cow, if you will.
You could self-publish like UrFame, or write intelligent blog posts like Anna Bayle, or unleash your inner geek like Alodia Gosiengfiao, or become a YouTube Director like Happy Slip, or become queen of Philippine cosplay like Jerry Polence. Just make sure you come to me with something more remarkable than a bunch of magazine covers.
