There are many benefits of working as a model, although we know only a select few will have the drive and determination to make it a career and be successful. It takes a lof of hard work, discipline and some luck to really make it in the modeling industry.  Whether you are thinking of modeling part time or full time, here are 5 benefits that will make it all worthwhile.

1. Flexibility

The first benefit of becoming a freelance model is that you can work whenever you want. Based on your schedule you choose your own hours. If you want to work certain months of the year, you can do that. If you want to burn the midnight oil and work around the clock to save up for your next international trip by all means, go for it. As a freelance model, you can actually work where and when you want. You don’t have to be restricted by your location or schedule. 

2. Control Of Your Career

When you are an employee you don’t get a choice of who you work with. You can become stuck long term working with unprofessional or rude people with no say in the matter. But, when you’re a freelance model, you can choose which clients you want to work with. If you don’t mesh well with a client’s personality or business professionalism, you can pass on the opportunity and wish them the best. It’s as easy as that.

3. Work Wherever You Want 

Whether you prefer working locally or traveling the globe, you can choose to work wherever you want. Whether you live in Atlanta, Las Vegas, Chicago or even while you’re on vacation in Hawaii and want to make extra money.  You are no longer stuck and can find work no matter where you are that fits with your lifestyle and location. 

4. You’re the Boss

You no longer have to answer to anyone but your clients and yourself.  You call the shots and manage the whole process. You are free to do as you please, when you please. Making all the tough decisions just became your responsibility, but you have all of the control.

5. You Keep All The Profits

No longer do you have to work for a salary that may only change annually if you are lucky.  Now, you get to allocate or keep all the profits from your large and small projects and clients. This gives you the freedom to use that money to improve yourself and expand your business.
