Having a meeting with my agent tomorrow, any advice?

I am a new model with no previous experience, signed about 10 months ago with my MA. I am having a performance meeting with an agent tomorrow, and I was wondering if what are some things that are "valid" to bring up if that makes any sense?

Agency side of concerns I can anticipate:

  • I have not booked any opportunities so far, although I get submitted for 2- 4 opportunities each month. So far I went to 1 casting, and submitted self tape for 2 virtual casting opportunities.
  • I have very small social media presence with than 100 followers. I started social media when I got signed.

My side of concern:

  • I feel that there's a very little development opportunity(the biggest concern)
  • I had been to my agency only twice, once for the polaroids and once for the test shoot.
  • I tried to book a test shoot on my own twice and asked my agent for an advice with photographer, concept etc. But the communication got lost and I never heard back.
  • I do not know where my niche or market I am aiming at yet. I am very skinny but have a more commercial/feminine face, and I gained advice that my polaroids are too "high fashion" from another agent from different agency. I reached out to my agent if I can re-do polaroids aimed to certain market but I did not hear back.
  • So far as social media, I do not know what to post. I am a very shy person (yes I need to get over this) but as far as I understand, I must be posting "modelling" things, but since there are nothing going on I have nothing to post.

I really like them and I really don't want to be rude with them, and since this is my first time being signed I don't know if what are valid things to bring up and what's not. Thank you so much for advice in advance!
