[NEohioPAL] Marketing Tools Fees?

[Michelle Rosario]

NEOhioPal Community,

 I have a question for all of you that have experience in the market.  My kids are just starting out therefore we have no money to invest.  I sent out some head shot/resumes of my kids to some talent agencies.  So far 1 of them contacted me and told me they are interested in my kids and would like to meet them and sign a contract.  They are asking for almost $700 a child/year for marketing tools, head book fee and being on the website.  They also charge $75 each for a consultation that helps prepare our kids for the market.  They will update our resume, we have to supply our own head shots.  What do you think of this?  I thought money should never come up-front.  I don't have the money anyway but I am just curious to know.  My kids did 5 months of ACT training and I am not ready to dish out anymore money.  Don't have it anyway.
       

  
God bless,
Michelle
