We recently connected with Savannah Vinson and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Savannah, thanks for joining us today. What do you think it takes to be successful?
Being successful can mean a lot of different things. However, being successful to me means being consistent with what ever you decide to do. Giving it your 110% every day! If you can do this, you’re successful. Just because it’s hard, doesn’t mean it’s impossible.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers
I decided to graduate high school one year early in 2018 to move to NYC to pursue my modeling career. I didn’t know anyone, I just had the drive to become successful. Fast forward 4 year later, I model full time and I’m signed with multiple modeling agency’s in NY and in LA. I have modeled for L’Oréal, Redken, Target, Walmart, Sprayground, MCM, Black Pyramid, Hero Cosmetics, and the list goes on. I also decided to start my own casting agency “Queen Castings.” My brand Moto is to break the typical model standers and make every model feel like a Queen. We have over 1000 models, actors, dancers, and influencers on our roster in NY, LA, and in Miami! We have booked talent for Canva, Freshly, QC, AfterPay NYFW, Footlocker etc! Throughout the years I have been able to build a social media following with over 200,000+ followers .
We’d love to hear the story of how you built up your social media audience?
Social media is extremely important in todays day and age. Especially, when it comes to modeling. It’s the new version of a modeling portfolio, to showcase to Agency’s and clients. If you’re looking to grow your online presence, my advice is to post every 1-2 days on Instagram. Along with 5-10 Instagram story’s per day. This way you are consistently at the top of your followers feed. You also want to use at least 15 hashtags that describe your post! This way you can bring in a new audiance. As far as Tik Tok, I would post 3 videos per day. I know this sounds like a lot, but out of the 3 videos, one will perform well! Give it a try!
Where do you think you get most of your clients from?
The best source to bring in new clients, is word of mouth. Everything is about connections. Don’t be afraid to talk to new people and tell them what you do and what you can offer. Also, when you give your clients a good experience they tell people around them, which leads back to you. Another way, is doing out reach! Sending emails and dms on Instagram to potential clients I feel would benefit from my services!
