There are lots of agencies . It is very important to send a small jpeg image by email. Agencies are very busy. They are selective. Models represent the agency when they go out to clients. There fore if an agency feels that you are right for their market , they will take you on.
Agencies that have been in business for many years and have a solid track record in the industry is a good start. You can also check with the Better Business bureaur on their rating. Agencies cannot just register with the BBB. They must be up to date in their business practices and run an excellent business.
Check out their website! If they don't have a website and you can't find them on the web, if they do not have a good online presence that how will clients find them to book you.

WHY DOES MY AGENT NOT CALL ME!
Agents will only call you when they have an audition for you or go see to meet with the client. It is your responsibility as an actor or model to gain experience and knowledge in the industry.
There are lots of things a new model or actor can do, Take Classes Learn your craft! I cannot stress enough how important it is to be trained. To many clients today complain models are not trained, they come to a job and don't know what they are doing.
Show your agent what new projects YOU have worked on, what new shoots you have got to help improve your book. If you are an actor or model or also acts. Do community theatre, visit websites like mandy.com for job listings that are usually non paying or low paying , but help you gain experience. Remember agents are very busy. YOU are not the only one they represent. I t is very important to have good communication skills with your agent. YOU email or call them, let them know what YOU are up to.
Agents do not get reports back from client or casting directors, how well you did at an audition. However, they will get a call back if you were late, or were not professional. REMEMBER, this is a business, it is not get rich quick!
