Pageants have a participation fee that is meant to be paid by participants or participants may get sponsorship for themselves, this is how the pageant industry works globally. All international pageant give their franchises to national pageants on fixed franchisee fees or participation fees basis.

Nothing is for free
Freebies are the weakness of Indians, But let me remind you there is nothing for free on this planet. If you’re not paying for the product, you are the product. Pageant Training Academies are serviced based industry so are the pageant organizations. Many girls get influenced by conmen who say they are offering training & grooming for free to lure young age girls. Many greedy parents also get lured by the promise of free and comprise the safety of their girls just to save a few bucks. But they never pause to think how their children can be used in the wrong way to raise money by an organization or person who claims to be giving free training etc.

Pageantry is not modeling
Modeling is a real profession just like any other profession which requires some specific skills. While pageantry is a contest, which is open for all professions, You may be a doctor or a student you can participate if you fulfill the requirements of the pageant organization.
Pageantry is an expensive Game
Pageantry is an Expensive Game. It is not a necessity of life. I always suggest financially struggling youngsters not participate in it, if they cannot afford expenses. There are no free lunches. Pageants are important to enhance your personality & groom you, only if you can afford them. Pageants are your gateway to modeling and acting. But do not think you are entitled to participate in pageantry on someone else’s money.
