If you’re a model, stylist, designer or jewelry designer based in NYC (or can get out there next week), here’s a great opportunity to build buzz for your brand without spending a dime:

Tired of tradition and doing things the same old way, a small group of eight Porter Novelli staffers, averaging 26 years old, created a “pop up” fashion agency called Jack + Bill. From mid-July to early September, the agency will provide free branding, buzz building, media relations and viral marketing services to one NYC-based individual in each of the following categories: model, stylist, women’s apparel designer and jewelry designer.

On July 15 and 16, Jack + Bill will hold an open “casting call” at Sandbox Studios (250 Hudson Street) to select its clients- imagine all the New Yorkers clamoring for their 15 minutes of fame!
