Licensing
California law requires any company that procures or offers to procure employment or auditions, or that provides artist management services, direction or counseling to develop an artist's career, for any of which they collect a fee in advance to post a $10,000 bond. This law also prohibits charging for such services as; registering or listing the artist for employment, providing photographs, videotapes, other promotional materials, costumes, lessons or training, or auditions. To obtain bonding information, write to the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement, Department of Industrial Relations, Legal Section, at P.O. Box 420603, San Francisco, CA 94142 or call (415) 703-4846 or by email to [email protected] The website address is www.dir.ca.gov For businesses outside of California, please check with the agency that regulates this industry.

We believe this company may be required to post a $10,000 bond and register with the Industrial Relations Board as an advance fee talent service. Any company that requires a fee in advance to procure or offer to procure employment, provide management services, give direction or counseling to develop the artist's career is required to be licensed with the Department of Industrial Relations. Licensing information may be obtained by contacting the Department of Industrial Relations, Division of Labor Standards Enforcement at P.O. Box 420603, San Francisco, CA 94142 or calling (415) 703-4846. California laws relating to "advance fee talent services" allow 10 days to cancel contracts without penalty or obligation. In some cases, refunds must be provided within 48 hours, or the company is required to pay the artist an additional sum equal to the original amount of the fee. Cancellation procedures should be outlined in your contract. Our experience with similar offers, is that consumers enter into agreements based on verbal representations and not the actual services in the contract. We advise careful review of the contract. According to licensed talent agents, portfolios are developed over the course of a persons career and novices do not need expensive portfolios.
We know of no other matter or practice relating to this company that may assist you in your consideration of this company.
