In an industry where a single booking can make or break a season, KSTING isn't just another directory—it's a transaction engine for fashion's elite. With 22 employees and $3.5M in revenue, they're proving that hyper-niche platforms beat generic marketplaces every time.

"They're not fighting for everyone's attention—they're owning the exact moment a creative director needs a model, a stylist, and a makeup artist, and needs them yesterday."

The Instagram presence (@kstingofficial) is their real storefront. While their website is minimal, their social is where the magic happens—visual proof of successful bookings, behind-the-scenes access, and the subtle credibility that comes from being in the right rooms. Emma Ruuth (Agent & Producer) isn't just a contact; she's the human face of a digital platform, bridging the gap between algorithm and agency.
