this would be nice, but that would cost money, which means the trade assoc would cost the talent money. leaves room for theft, but it could work assuming people want to pool their funds for money.



costs money. talent will have to pay fees to an association to get this done.



this is competition between the agents. some insist on holding rates, others insist on working with producers. talent/agent is all about perceived happiness, however you will see more flexible agents make strives to grow their business in the future, while those that are more strict, will probably move downward. no need for a trade association, the agents are going to be who they want to be.



Costs money, costs will be passed down to talent.



stick a bunch of money in front of someone in charge, will they do the right thing? to me, it just doesnt make sense, many of these things you do not need a trade association for, the other little things cost money, not every talent will be for it. trade associations make sense when industry needs large pools of money for an overall cause. mixing regular competitive business practices in with small time perks, the downside is bigger than the upside imo.
