Q.	Why should I join Skybolt?
A.	Most importantly because your agent has asked you to join. Unlike many other similar services, Skybolt is a tool that is currently being used by your agent. Skybolt gives the agent the capability to create electronic packages of talent that can be emailed to their clients. Agents without online photo delivery capabilities cannot compete in today's market that demands instant photo delivery. Skybolt also helps an agency organize all the resumes, sizes, and contact information for all their talent in one area. It gives the talent a place to log in and keep their information current and up to date without distracting the agency staff.
Q.	Why do I have to pay for Skybolt? Shouldn't my agent pay for Skybolt?
A.	Just as you had paid for your composite cards in the past so should you pay for Skybolt. Skybolt is essentially a digital version of your composite.

You want your agency working to get you work not administrating an internet photo delivery program.
