Once issued with log in details, your profile is live for clients to see. You are therefore now being seen by clients, it is vital your profile is looking good!
The information you now submit determines what bookers and clients can see and how we submit you for work.
1) Firstly, we need your paperwork uploaded for you to work legally.
Please download your documents at https://www.bizzykidzagency.com/agencydocs where you will also find instruction on how and where to upload them.
2) Using desktop version (not the app), go through your profile page by page and complete as much info as possible. Also upload a selection of very good images, in colour, with a nice close up headshot in slot 1.
Pay special attention to the below
3) Ensure heritage under the ‘personal details’ tab is completed. It should read e.g. mum irish/dad French etc
4) Natural accent - this is what they speak at home please, it is found in skills and you choose the one with the star for the one they speak naturally and without the star if they can do it proficiently - for a major film role with full script etc and not just the odd word or phrase
5) Base - This is the city you live closest to. Your permanent address.
6) Home Address should also be added in personal details
7) LEA - This is your local education authority, so your council, regardless of age of artist and needs to be added
8) No efolio links are allowed, these are for self promotion and have your personal details on, they are a conflict for agencies and profiles will not be submitted to our clients with these present
9) Website - do not add anything in that field, that is for our agency Pro-Folio links. See www.bizzykidzagency.com/pro-folios for further information
10) Social Media - add your insta link if you have one, so we can tag you from ours when we post about work you are involved in etc. If you are new to Instagram our social media guru can book you in on a 1 to 1 zoom instagram workshop at https://www.bizzykidzagency.com/workshops
11) Sizes - We must have height, shoe size, clothing size to appear on a search for ALL ages and anything in addition to that should be added for over 4's. The more you have on the profile the more searches you will appear on, so please bear that in mind and keep it up to date every month.
12) YES TO / NO TO - Select those that suit you, here we can establish where you are happy to travel to, can stay at and many other things!
The more info available then the higher your chance of fitting the right criteria for a client brief. With this in mind please add info to your Skills section and levels/grades etc into the training area.
There is one other thing you can do that will assist bookers for confirming assignments, and that is add a weblink.
Weblinks field is in the personal details section of your profile and is where to add a tape. This is to show accent, confidence and any abilities.
INSTRUCTION
Short Introduction tape, do not state age or location.
Examples:
Little ones: A little clip of them laughing, playing etc, just to show character and personality.
Older ones: Hi my name is .., I am ...yrs old and with Bizzy Agency. I love this , I dont like that, hobbies are…, want to be .. when i grow up,
These are ideas, maybe say something interesting thats happened to them, something funny etc
Nice and close, put hands up to camera at the end to show front and back.
Maybe pan out to show full length at the end.
You can upload several of these, just ensure they are removed/replaced as you change.
Do not add long clips, clients get bored, and add a different one for each skill and name them as such; so 'Singing', or 'Intro', or 'dancing' , or 'gymnastics', or 'accents' etc
You would need to add clips to YouTube or vimeo (you can make it so only people with a link can see it) and then add the URL to the weblink area on the profile in personal details as LOTS of clients ask for these and usually want them immediately).
If you would like to book a 1 to 1 workshop with our coach to help you with this and more see HERE

Licence docs, terms, contract, checklist & troubleshooting guide are at bottom of this page and at https://www.bizzykidzagency.com/agencydocs
Don't forget we have an 'artist information' page for some great guidance for your time with the agency and ways to enhance your profile while with us.
We recommend using Docusign to sign documents: https://www.docusign.co.uk. It’s completely free and will generate a “squiggle”.
Within the invitation we sent you, there is facility for you to create a password to log into your Tagmin profile. Tagmin is the name of the software we use for all our artists. It is the fastest and most efficient agency software used by the majority of clients in the industry and has many fabulous features to help make your and our lives easier and your assigned booker handles all submissions for you.
You should also download the free TagminTalent app in the app store. This will be needed when doing self tape auditions for clients PLEASE DO NOT USE THE APP TO SET UP YOUR PROFILE, ADD IMAGES, OR LICENCE DOCS/CONTRACTS you should use desktop version.
You should maintain their images and aim to refresh them regularly throughout the year to keep them current.
Babies should ideally change images monthly.
Don't forget that clients insist on up to date images of artists, and of course they change! So please ensure that the images reflect the artist that may be booked and walk through the clients door! Surprises with different colour, or length hair arriving for a shoot will result in them being turned away, so update your images when any changes occur.
London Model Division
You must use professional images on your profile. You are welcome to book in with our London studio HERE if needed and use good snapshots until your appointment for a maximum of 30 days.
Here are a few reminders to help your profile look the best for clients.
If you enter your password incorrectly 5 times it will block you, please wait 1 hour then try again. If it is still incorrect then please use the forgotten password facility to reset.

if you are registered with spotlight (optional) you MUST list Bizzy Agency as your primary agent. If you want to join spotlight see our www.bizzykidz.com/spotlight page
If you try to log in and it is asking for a 4 digit pin number that would mean you have set up 2 way authentication on the app and not completed it. So do not do that if you can help it!
If you cannot log in it usually means you have entered your details incorrectly more than 5 times and it has locked you out. You have to wait an hour for it to unlock. We would then suggest returning to the log in area and clicking forgotten password to get a reminder or reset.
If you cannot view images then you are probably in the app - use the desktop version and go to your gallery and you will find them there. Likewise if you can't find the legal and financial area, that is also only viewable in the desktop version.
REMEMBER you cannot upload images in the app,…..only in the desktop version - make sure you have saved the images you wish to use to the device you are logging in from, so either your computer, or laptop, then upload them from there. You might have slow internet speed and it is causing it to timeout, so if that is the issue then try making the images smaller. You can do this quite easily by emailing the image to yourself and choosing to send smaller versions. When they arrive in your email, save those smaller images to your device and upload again.
If you still struggle then maybe clear your cache and cookies, or use another browser.
Google chrome is usually an issue, so we suggest Firefox as a better alternative.
Don't forget we have an 'artist info' page for some great guidance for your time with the agency)
