Frequently
Asked Questions
Q.
What do you really do?
A. First
of all, so that there are no misunderstandings... we are not a model
agency. We do not give you any promises of becoming a 'super model'
or a 'star'. We are a web
design business and we help models, photographers and others
to establish professional web sites on the net.
No
scam here! We are even recommended on Crimes
of Persuasion as reputable Web Designers. See here.
Q.
What is the site for?
A. This site has been established to help you see how good we
can make model/photographers look online, but we also offer FREE
stuff for your convenience; link exchange,
forum,
tips, ads,
profiles and contests!
Q.
How will I know if I am model quality?
A.
You do not need to be 'gorgeous' or 'handsome' since some
companies and clients need 'average' faces for commercials and ads.
Check other parts of this site for details such as the link 'Wanna
Be'.
Q.
Is this for Porn, nude or similar?
A.
NO! We do not deal in such things. Please do not send any
of these 'kinds' of photos either. We are also very picky about
what we put on the net. We believe you do not have to show your
'secret' body parts in order to be a model or to be beautiful. Many
top agencies will not deal with models that have 'nude' as part
of their portfolio.
Q.
If I send my picture will you give it to others or post it on the
net?
A.
NO! We do not give out information to others nor post people's
picture on the net unless we receive authorization through a signed
contract with you, but please do not send us your photos unless
you are thinking of taking one of our services.
Q.
I am afraid of putting myself on the net. I have heard bad stories
about it.
A.
The net like everything else in life has both good and bad users.
It can do no more harm or good than a newspaper ad or television
commercial. The only difference is the mode by which you communicate.
Most people like to have their info on the net because it means
you have a wider audience and the information displayed can be updated
easily. You do not have to meet anyone that views your web page,
just like you would not have to meet everyone that saw your television
or radio commercial.

Q.
What kinds of faces do you put on your site?
A.
Anyone and everyone that has the drive to become a model. Personality
is key!
Q.
Does it matter what ethnic background I'm from?
A.
NO! All are welcome - in fact the more races the better!
Q.
Is this something I have to pay for or is it free?
A.
This depends on if you are already a professional, an amateur or
just trying. Sometimes we look for models for our own web sites.
We can work out a contract with you to have your own site FREE!
See a similar question at the start of this page. Sections of this
site are divided to cater for those who want to pay for a professional
site or for those who just want free stuff such as FreeX.
Q.
I see that you are based in Trinidad - does that mean I have to
be physically in Trinidad too?
A.
Yes and no... here are the reasons for 'yes' and for 'no':
YES - If your picture is online and a Trinidad based company
wants you to be a model to market their product then you may have
to meet with them personally to take photos with their product and/or
establishment.
NO - Our business does not require us to meet with anyone
personally. In these modern times business is done through the net.
We have built many web sites for clients that we have never met!
If you have a photo online then you can state what country you want
to model in so contacts will be generated from your locality only.
If it is that you will be modeling for our business then we will
just instruct you as to what photos we need and you get your very
own FREE site. Sound good right?

IS
THIS FOR REAL?
Q.
Is this for real?
A.
We are a REAL web design business. We are registered in the Republic
of Trinidad & Tobago, but it does not stop us from doing business
with the entire world! In fact, if you look at most of our designs
you will see that most of the web sites we design are for foreign
based companies and clients.
Q.
After my site is up what do I do?
A.
Use your new web site as a foundation for exposure. Put the web
site's address on business cards and résumés just as you would a
contact number. Remember to be just as vigilant in replying to emails
as you would in answering the phone. Business can come from anywhere!
Q.
What are some other things I can do to develop my career?
A.
Look for a legitimate agency with direct connections to the
industry. Some people seek out modeling schools, but this
is dependant on what you feel you need - it may be a help to you
or it may just be a waste of money. Get just one or two really professional
photographs of you to 'walk' around with as you travel, but
do NOT purchase a portfolio 'book' as it may just end up being a
waste of money if an agency already has something else 'in mind'
for you. Composite cards or comp cards, a printed
sheet of your photos, will help prospective clients remember you.
Make sure you have a good résumé.
Q.
I need help with my make-up, walking and expressions... can you
put me on to people that help in these areas or do you do that too?
A.
There are people in that area we can most definitely put you on
to if you are in Trinidad. In other areas of the world you will
need to do some research. We do not change your make-up or anything
like that - we just make you look good on the internet - for that
you will be sure to get professional advice from us!

WHAT
DO MEMBERS GET?
Q.
I can't get in the members section, how come?
A.
The members section are for those that have contracted us to build
their highlight or profile page. They get unique items that help
boost their online experience that a random visitor will not get.

We do not want photos already taken. The photos we desire will be
in special poses we specify in our emails to you. They will become
copyrighted under our name and for this we will have a signed agreement
on your part. Photos used can bear the name of the photographer.

FAQ:
Preguntas Mas Frecuentes
PRIMERAMENTE:
REVISA TODAS ESTAS PREGUNTAS ANTES DE CONTACTARNOS!
P:
Me han contactado a traves de otro sitio web, que ideas tienen? R:
Si te hemos contactado a traves de otro sitio web significa que hemos
visto tu foto y hemos leido tu perfil y pensamos en dos cosas (Por favor
lee ambas respuestas)
1)
Que nos gustaría diseñar un sitio web gratis a cambio de que nos permitas
el uso de tus fotos que serán utilizadas para promover nuestro negocio
(no desnudos por favor). Nuestro negocio se llama Borde Global Impact
Designs, un negocio de sitios web. Mayormente es ese el motivo por el
cual te contactamos. Lo que tienes que hacer ahora es contactarnos y
decirnos si estás interesada/o. Por favor, escríbanos:
A)
Nombre B) Donde están tus fotos (ya que recibimos cientos de
e-mails diarios) C) Como piensas que podemos trabajar juntos-
Se específico/a D) Tu programa de Chat Online y Numero (Díganos
cuando estarás online para charlar)
Si tu
haces desnudos ó desnudos artísticos no podremos ofrecerte el sitio
gratis ya que poseemos ciertos códicos de etica que debemos respetar.
Gracias por entendernos!.
2)
Mayormente pensamos, que quizas te gustaría contratarnos para que creamos
tu propio sitio web por un muy pero muy buen costo. Si lo que realmente
quieres ser exitoso/a en esta carrera, debes tener la exposición que
necesitas y el profesionalismo que podemos brindarte. Si tienes un sitio
web que no se encuentra al tope de tus expectaciones, por favor, contáctanos.
P:
Como se si tengo condiciones de ser modelo? R: Mándanos tu foto
por e-mail con una descripción de ti misma y de tus metas. No necesitas
ser 'hermosísima' ó muy bien parecido ya que algunas companías necesitan
gente comun para comerciales de televisión y de revistas.
P:
Es este sitio porno ó algo similar? R: NO!, nosotros no manejamos
ningun tipo de desnudos ó porno. Por favor, no envies este tipo de fotos
tampoco. Somos muy selectivos acerca de que clase de fotos ponemos en
la internet. Creemos que no debes mostrar tus partes 'secretas' del
cuerpo para querer ser modelo ó aparecer hermosa.
P:
Si envío mis fotos, se las darán a otras personas ó la pondrán en la
Red? R: NO!, no damos ningun tipo de información a terceros ni ponemos
fotos online al menos que tengamos expresa autorización de tu parte.
P:
Tengo miedo de poner mi foto online, he esuchado tantas historias!
R: La Red como cualquier otra cosa en la vida, tiene buenos y malos
usuarios. No puedo hacer más daño que un periódico ó un comercial de
televisión haría. La unica diferencia es la forma en que te comunicas.
La mayoría de la gente le gusta tener su información online ya que la
audiencia es mucho más grande y la información puede ser actualizada
más facilmente. No tienes por que conocer a alguien que vea tu sitio
web, de la misma forma en la que no tienes que conocer a la persona
que ve tu comercial de televisión.
P:
Que clase de 'caras' están buscando? R: Cualquier persona que tenga
el deseo de ser modelo. Personalidad es la clave!
P:
Importa de que origen racial soy? R: NO!, Todos son bienvenidos,
de hecho, mas razas mejor!
P:
Es esto algo que tengo que pagar ó es gratis? A: Depende si eres
un modelo profesional, amateur ó solamente estas intentando. Muchas
veces buscamos modelos para nuestros propios sitios web. Podemos trabajar
con un contrato y crear tu sitio web GRATIS!. Vea pregunta similar arriba
al principio de esta página.
P:
Veo que están basados en Trinidad- significa que debo estar presente
en Trinidad tambien? A: Si y no...aca van las razones por el si
y por el no. SI- Si tu foto es online y una companía de Trinidad quiere
contratarte, entonces debes estar presente en Trinidad. NO- Nuestro
negocio no requiere que nos conozcamos personalmente. En tiempos modernos,
los negocios se hacen a traves de la internet. Hemos creado muchos sitios
web para clientes que jamás hemos conocido!. Si tienes una foto online,
puedes colocar de que pais eres y futuros clientes te contactarán desde
ese pais. Si modelarás para nuestro negocio, entonces te diremos que
clase de fotos necesitaremos y obtendrás tu propio sitio web GRATIS!.
Suena bien no es cierto?.
