The agency works closely with a number of organizations and charities (including The Organic Pharmacy, Core London and B-eat - an eating disorder charity in the UK) [cite news | author = Bridget March | title = The model agency that dares to be different | date = 4 April 2008 | work = Cosmopolitan (UK) | url = http://www.cosmopolitan.co.uk/fashion-&-style/fashion-news-ethical-model-agency/buzz] to help ensure that their models stay healthy. The agency also pays for nutritional advice and intolerance testing for all of its models in an attempt to encourage long-term health awareness.

Some of the models represented by Quintessentially Models have gone on to secure contracts with big name cosmetic manufacturers, including Selena Breed with Lancôme, Silvia Peretzki with Olay, and Myriam Wiedemann with Nivea.
