Hello from Toronto, Canada!
Well it has been a really busy few days here at the Canadian Model and Talent Convention, or CMTC. This is a very classy, premier event for developing the careers of aspiring models and talent here in Canada. If you live in the Toronto area or can get here, I strongly urge you to consider becoming a part of this event next time around.
Yesterday (Friday) I had the pleasure of addressing a couple of hundred of the attendees in a talk I gave all about the modeling markets of the world. From the feedback I received I think the talk went very well. I was happy to be able to pass on some important information to the aspiring models in the audience.
I’ve met some quite interesting models, and at least several that are potentially right for our Paris market. As I talked about at length yesterday, it’s important for models to figure out what markets best suit their unique attributes and pursue those markets.
Not everyone is right for Paris, but it’s a big world out there and there are markets that are probably right for you. Again, figure out what they are and go after them. Don’t waste time on markets that are not right for you as you will quickly get frustrated. It’s so much nicer to be on the right place for you!
Speaking of markets, I’m excited to be working on a new product that will deal with exploring many of the world’s best model markets. I won’t get into it here today except to say that I’ll be calling upon my agent friends and colleagues from around the world to supply their expertise. When I do announce this in more detail I think you’ll be very glad to see just what a valuable resource this is. Stay tuned.
Well here it is Saturday already and we’re down to just the last few hours of the event. I’m busy right to the very end with call backs and meetings. In fact I need to finish this post now as I’m due back downstairs in a few minutes.

Hi Mme. Luret,
Just wanted to thank you for taking the time to attend the CMTC convention and what a pleasure it was to meet you along with the other agents/managers. Because of the many contestants that attended CMTC, I highly doubt you remember me. However, although we only had a brief discussion about modeling and the attitude one should present in order to achieve success, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Listening to the advice you and the other agents/managers had to offer has and will continue to help me along my journey. I was the one who only had 4 photos and had just recently taken Audra’s modeling course at Mode Elle.
Thanks again,
Mike Gregory
