Groupon day! (Questions Answered Here)

Welcome to Model Integrity! If you are considering purchasing a Groupon certificate or have already done so and want to know what's next, please read below...
What is my Groupon valid for?
It is valid for one Model Workshop. Workshops take place on specific dates, and you must pre-register to attend. (Please see the “Upcoming Events” section of the website for workshop dates).

What are these Model Workshops?
They are two hour sessions that walk you through everything you need to know to understand the modeling industry, pursue joining it, and work as a model. Please read the “Upcoming Events” and “Interested in Modeling” sections of the website to get more specifics on what they include. And check out the "True Story" interview on the blog posting below to hear the story of someone who's worked with us.

What ages are these Model Workshops for?
Model Integrity workshops are meant to assist individuals of all ages. Whether you are the parent of a small child with a dazzling smile, a teen with hopes of seeing the runway, or an adult who wants to know about commercial modeling, we have answers for you.

Can we call or email you to get Modeling Advice?
While helping people is what we do best, please save your questions about the modeling industry for your workshop date. Due to high volume we are simply not able to answer everyone’s questions, and in fact this is exactly why the Model Integrity Workshops exist! We look forward to hearing your story and getting you answers at that time. Once you've purchased your Groupon, please do call or email to reserve your Workshop space.

What if I can’t attend one of the dates that are listed on the website right now?
Don’t worry, it’s most likely that additional dates will be added once we see how many Groupon certificates are sold. New dates are already pending – some for right away, some for three to six months out. Please note that most workshops will take place on either a weekday morning, a weekday evening, or a Sat morning. We will make sure to add enough workshops to accommodate the number of Groupons sold.

How do I redeem my Groupon?
Once your Groupon is purchased and valid and you’re ready to book your actual Model Workshop date, you can call or email us to register. When you get in touch, we’ll take your Groupon certificate number, a few details about you, and block off a space for that specific workshop date. Please know that space is limited at each workshop, but we will make sure to add new workshops if the first ones fill up. Your Groupon certificate is valid for six months, so you may make your reservation for a Workshop within this timeline.

If I am a parent and want to attend with my teen (or vice versa), or to get info for a child model, do I need to buy more than one Groupon certificate?
No. One parent is allowed with each model 18 or under. So a parent and their teen may attend together with one Groupon, but please specify the “guest” when registering. A parent may attend to get info for one or all of their children (with only one registration), but we do recommend you leave small children at home when you attend.

If you have a third immediate family member that wants to attend (say dad & mom both with their teen), there is a $19 immediate family guest fee that can be paid to us when you register. You may read more about this on the website “faq” section.

If you have friends that want to register, we look forward to meeting them! But they will need to purchase their own Groupon (if the deal is still on) or register with us separately.

Where do Model Integrity Workshops take place?
Currently all of our workshops take place in the lower level meeting space of Java Train CafĂ©. Java Train is in the Midway Area of St Paul, near Como Park and the State Fair Grounds. Please see the “Upcoming Events” page of the website for address and details.

If your question is not answered here, please feel free to call us at 651.489.8281 or email modelintegrity@juno.com. We will reply as quickly as possible, but please be patient in the case of high volume! Make sure you read up at the Model Integrity main website as well to learn more about what we do.
