Get Your Own Personal Booth Babe Anywhere Anytime
Leora Zellman has decided to put her body up for sale as a traveling booth babe. Leora is a blogger, photographer and model and attends many tech conferences around the country. The idea came from a discussion with a friend, "The other day at Tech Cocktail I jokingly mentioned to a friend that my ass gets stared at so much at these things I should start selling ad space."
So just how much is Leora’s ass? $30/hour. Same price as her head if you are wondering. Her back is $10, and arm $5. Check her blog for all of the body parts pricing. There’s a two-hour minimimum for all zones. If you go for the mega package at $100/hr, you will also get a link on her blog. I wonder how Google deals with paid body links.
Leora is here in NYC covering Internet Week events so you can book her now.
I met Leora at BlogWorld in Vegas and can tell you that she’s a really bright girl who understands blogging and making money.
To be honest, I could see a booth babe freelancer site working relatively well. If you are having a tech event or sponsoring a tech event, you could go on the service, see profiles of each booth babe and select the ones that meet your requirements. Each booth babe could have a profile showing her in action at previous events as well.
I want to agree with you so bad, but the more I think about this – there’s a difference between a booth babe and an actual IT/Internet woman worker. It’s like saying that Paris Hilton and the Hills women ruin acting for the "real" actresses like Julia Roberts or whoever. It’s totally different.
at least that’s my thought for now….
“I met Leora at BlogWorld in Vegas and can tell you that she’s a really bright girl who understands blogging and making money.”
Allen: she understands making money but is willing to sell her ass for $30/hour?
yea i don’t know her motives – revenue diversification perhaps?
Prancing around technology conferences for $30/hour is a gig – it’s not revenue diversification.
I don’t know why she is doing it Drama – I will ask her the next time I see her and shoot you an email.
@Allen: Absolutely, your idea of a booth babe seems like a never been done before and the business model is obvious. I can see such a service taking off easily.
On to coding the new: hirebabes.com
Thanks!
*sigh* and it just got a little harder for the women in this industry who are NOT “booth babes” to be taken seriously.
I’m with you, anon, on this one…. *sighs along with you*
@Allen @KT ten steps ahead of you ;-) Thanks for the post!
yea yea sure, you say that now to cover up for the possible legal action the firm of Stern, Stern and Stern would take if you launched using my idea and my patents and copyrights!
It is advertising and publicity for herself as a brand as a blogger, nothing more, and it has worked pretty well it seems. It’s an idea people are talking about, is there anything better than word of mouth?
