Acheiving Your Dreams: How To Be... The Ultimate Writer

Hello readers,
Today is the second post of a four part special, designed to arm you with the tips you may need to achieve your stardoll dreams. Todays post is all about becoming a well known stardoll writer. Over the years many oridinary members with a writing talent have gone from unknown to writing for the official stardoll blog! Here are my tips for getting into the buisness!

Apply, Apply, Apply!

Any blog any subject just apply. Employers are looking for a fresh take on the world of stardoll which comes from an angle. Make your application to fit the quota there looking for and sound professional. Compare your application to others around you, and see what you could improve on for your next one. Rejection will happen, don't take it to heart though.

Posting
Always post regularly. If you don't your at risk of being fired and appear lazy. Make sure you come across as friendly through your words and never use text talk. A good post contains pictures and information which makes the page look eyecatching and interesting. Do your reasearch about the topic, but NEVER copy and paste! You will land yourself in very hot water.

Contacts's
If you have any friends who are well known writers, now is the time to contact them! If you don't know them that well send them a polite message requesting some advice about blogging. They could notify you about positions that have not yet opened or even a temporary spot at their blog. Oppertunities such as this are few and far between though

Agencies

As far as I'm aware there are no known agencies which hire writers :/ Stardoll does need one though. If you own one or know of any please contact me :)

Already got a position?
Keep applying! It's not hard to post for more than one blog. If you do secure another job then stay loyal to the blogs you already work for. If you feel that your getting a bit waylaid with all the positing invest in a good filofax or agenda. If your working for to many blogs and feel exhasted choose the ones tht you enjoy writing for.

Hope these hints and tips help! All the pictures you see on here are of stardolls famous writers :) Before I forget, thanks for all the great comments - it really made my day.

Acheiving your dreams: How to be... The Ultimate Model!

Good afternoon readers,
Yesterday I mentioned the new 4 day special on how to acheive your stardoll dreams. Today's post is all about becoming the ultimate model!







Stardoll has helped to produce some of the most amazing virtual models of all time, here's some helpful hints to becoming one...

Looking fabulous:
Non-superstar or even royalty, you can always look fabulous if you put your mind to it. As a girl who knows several agency owners the 'barbie look' often does not bode well with designers looking for models for their fashion line. Try to make your doll original- this includes the clothes it wears. You don't always have to have the most expensive clothes, just aim to present yourself in the best way possible :)

Applying:
Try to apply for every oppertunity possible. The more jobs you apply for, the better chance of you being accepted for something! The key is in the application. If you sound unprofessional, they won't want you. Use formal language and Spell correctly! Rejection is part of the process so when it happens take it with a pinch of salt. It's not that your a bad model, just somebody else was more suited for the position.

Jobs:
From album shoots to fashion lines always be professional and punctual. Usually th information you need will be given to you, however if you have any queries message your employer in a friendly manner. Timing is key, if you have to change your medoll in any way for a shoot then do it asap!

Agency's and clubs:



Getting into an agencyblog/club is hard, staying in it is harder. Agents want girls who can apply and get work. They can be your best friend and open up so many oppertunies for you. A good agent can even help you get your own graphics and portfolio.

Portfolio's:
They're quite simply a record of everything you've done. Making your own makes you look more experienced and professional. From being featured in a scenery to designing work - it all goes in here. Agents can help you create one or simply do it yourself.

Contact's:
If you have any agent/ model friends now is the time to contact them. Friends of friends who can put in a good word for you are a big plus to. It's a good ideas to also know who to contact and the best girls and guys in the buisness.

With these hints under your belt you could become stardolls next great supermodel :)
