thanks you guys for all the great advice.

xenigo, totally know what you mean. Most of the guys i work with are very nice guys. But there are still some that i really fear!

I don't care how nice a guys is, but when he's telling me that he doesn't have his cell anymore because the cops confiscated it, next to slapping him with a charge of "possession of a fire arm," i get worried. Especially when it's my second time working with them, as they know how the company works and where everything is.

Ok, about the payment structure. I know what you guys all mean when you say pay them "per session." But i seem to get away with paying less when i pay them by the hour. My shoots are usually about 3hrs, so that's $300 for the session. Whereas before i used to state $500/session in the ads, and well, that's what i paid them for pretty much the same shoot, when many of them would've been more than happy with $300 for the shoot. So yeah, i'd like to state $100/hr if that sounds as good and appealing as $500/session.

So what i'm most concerned with is which SOUNDS BETTER in an ad? If i get talent scouts to hand out "models wanted" cards, does $100/hr sound more attractive or $500/session?

I guess what i'm trying to do is "lure" in the guys who're on the fence by enticement of great pay. Hmmmm...that doesn't sound too good but it's the truth. I need my models!!

I think if a guy knows that he can make a quick $500, he might be inclined to apply. As apposed to $100, which sounds good, but they don't know exactly how much they could make. ??? Any thoughts?
