Why Cheltenham
The agency grew out of THE GOOD STAFF, which has staffed events for years. We know what clients book, and we only take models we can actually place. That is why the board is small and the jobs are real.
ROW ONE is the model agency of THE GOOD STAFF, based in Frankfurt. We book models for productions across Europe, including Cheltenham and the region, and we are open to applicants who have never modelled before.

Why Cheltenham
If you live in Cheltenham, you will mostly work in the region and travel to London, Birmingham and Manchester for campaigns and shows. Travel costs are paid by the client.
Models from smaller cities like Cheltenham are on our board too. Jobs come from regional companies and from the larger cities nearby, Gloucester, Worcester and Swindon among them.
Travel and support
Cheltenham is 778 kilometres from Frankfurt, reachable by plane or train. We work with models across United Kingdom; interview and polaroids happen by video, castings in the region or on set.

Questions
Frequently asked
01Do I need experience to apply from Cheltenham?
Experience is not a requirement. What counts: four natural photos, correct measurements and the willingness to travel to castings and productions.
02Does the application cost anything?
Nothing. We never charge for comp cards, photos or courses; if someone does, it is not us.
03How tall do I need to be?
Guide values: women 172 to 181 cm, men 184 to 192 cm for fashion. For commercial and e-commerce we book outside these ranges as well.
04Will I hear back?
With a clear yes or no, once we have looked at your photos. If yes, we propose a date for the video call.
05Can I model part-time?
Yes. Many of our models study or work. Tell us your availability early and we book around it.
06Will I get a comp card?
Yes, once you are on the board. The comp card is produced by us, free of charge, and updated with every new set of pictures.
07Which photos should I send?
Phone photos are fine. We need to see you, not a production: daylight, neutral background, fitted clothes, no edits.
08What does a model earn?
Day rates depend on the category and the usage: e-commerce days at the lower end, campaigns with buyouts at the upper end. Our commission is stated in the contract.
