We are not a modeling agency. We are a public relations group of consultants (publicists) with a focus on professional and emerging talent in the entertainment related industries. Our membership offer was for a free basic membership and association, however, to participate in receiving the benefit of the iMC Resources VIP Card- that allows our members access to beauty care at wholesale from licensed professionals, the candidate did have to pay 10.95 shipping to receive the card, second day air. If not, the introductiory membership was in fact free. The only charge was for the postage if they wanted to take advantage of the card benefits. If not, they still were able to participate in the membership promotion. Unfortunately, in this era of "wannabes" in the modeling industry, certain persons are ignorant of the differences between, managers, agents, publicists, bookers, etc. It is common and accepted business practice for publicists to charge a retainer for their services that promote an individual, or company. We endeavour to offer emerging talent as well as professionals different levels of access to professional public relations experts at affordable pricing based upon the need of the individual or company. I hope this clarifies the situation and I respectfully request that the private codes that were posted be removed or blacked out. We will be happy to answer any further questions regarding this or provide any information. Thank you.
