JR, agreed on all of the above. I think it's fantastic that you take the time to prepare your girls before they go on cam (and during, it seems).
What percentage of the models/talent that you work with ultimately change their mind *before* getting in front of the camera?

thanks. one of the bigger lessons i have learned is that you cannot demand a bright smile every second in front of the cam. but you can go a long way to create the conditions that makes it much easier to smile by creating a pleasant place to work.
here is what typically happens.
100 girls will call.
about 20 will agree to meet.
about 5 will actually show.
maybe 1-2 will agree to work
at the point they agreed to work...
they still did not tell their parents
they still did not tell their boyfriends.
they still did not tell their husbands
they still did not think about what will happen if someone she knows sees her
they still did not think about what it means to actually get naked in front of thousands and do anything they request.
they still did not think that maybe XXX$ is maybe not enough
quite a few change their minds before working for those reasons and more. i dont get involved in that side of things as much as i did before. so i dont know exactly what the typical numbers would look like.
