The comp card is one of your greatest tools in getting work. Basically, it’s a card, around 5” x 8” in size, printed on both sides. The front side of the card is usually the models’ headshot along with the model’s name. The backside of the comp card usually has multiple shots of the model, usually four in number including there stats. The actual size and design of the card isn’t always standardized, but Most casting professionals will sometimes want all their comp cards to be similar view samples below.
When an advertising agency, graphic design, or major corporation needs a model, the easiest thing for them to do is to pick up the phone and call a modeling agency or referral service. On some rare occasion, they may have someone in mind that they have hired freelance before, but nine times out of ten, they’ll give their favorite referral service a ring. The client knows that they will be paying top dollar (good for you) and they also know that they’ll have to deal with the “usage” issue (also good for you). But realistically, they don’t have a choice. Models come and go in most cities and keeping track of who’s available to model for them is just too big a burden for most companies to keep track of. Rather than go to all that trouble, they just depend on the professionals to do their legwork, the Referral service. This is what (steppin stone referral services) does for you no guarantees: First we expose you to the potential clients (usually better that you could do). Then we get you the job (much better than you could ever do). Then we negotiate a price for you. (always much better that you could ever do) Then we invoice for the project. (pain in the butt that you probably don’t want to do) Then we make sure that you get paid for the project. (another pain in the butt avoided) Yes… we're worth it.

No one does it better!
I wanted to write a testimonial because I am so impressed with your product and customer service. I originally had my comp cards reproduced at a very expensive printer in NYC upon the request of my agency, but the customer service was terrible and I didn't get my cards until a month later. I wanted to have more cards made because I would like to send them out to different agencies, so since I was out of business cards, I conducted an inexpensive test with your company. I figured I didn't have much to loose for $25! When I received the business cards in the mail I was so excited because they looked so terrific and I knew immediately that the comp cards would look just as good. Now that I have such a great calling card, I always remember to give them out and I am contacted because of how professional they look. Of course, I immediately placed an order for the comp cards after I received the business cards.
I just received my new comp cards from FedEx a few minutes ago and I am equally satisfied with the quality. I actually think they look better than the more expensive ones I had done here in the City! I must say that when I was contacted by Shauna in Customer Service for payment, I was delighted at how informative and helpful she was.
Overall, this experience has been excellent and I intend to use your service exclusively in future.
Thank you so much Steppin stone!
With very best regards, Jacquelyn, New York City
Hey, I just got my order and am totally thrilled with how it turned out! Thank you for taking special care with the color balance, the touch-up is fantastic and I LOVE the gloss coating! The whole order was really well executed, your turnaround was very timely and your price is the best around. I'll gladly refer you and I'll definitely be back myself.
