Stingy Omantel
If you have noticed, Omantel spends a fortune on its outdoor and print advertising campaigns. Dumb hoardings with stupid lines have become their hallmark. People at helm have the knack of netting PYTs (pretty young things) as models for their campaigns. They keep an eye on local magazines to shortlist models. A majority of these PYTs are expats too.
And, how much do you think these models are getting paid for their efforts? Don’t fall off the chair. RO25 plus lunch a day! This is pittance considering the prevailing international standards. High time a professional modeling agency sets up shop in Muscat.

This is an industry wide issue and not related to Omantel just as you noted. Even advertising networks such as Zeenah are complaining about the lack of models in Oman.
My concern is how do companies arrive at a figure of RO25 for payment? For this rate, no one will aspire to become a model, at least in Oman. BTW, what is Zeenah's offer for models?
Interesting thread.
Does anyone of you have a contact to a Muscat-based or nearby agency for hostesses or is there none?
Would it be recommendable to bring our own hostesses from Dubai with us?
Thanks in advance for some feedback on that...
