 I'd like to introduce myself
Hi Everyone out there - my name is Marcie and I am a 20-year veteran ad agency, print & direct mail production manager, located in the Pacific Northwest.
I have been freelancing for about 3 years now. I work primarily with corporate marketing departments and other freelance designers and copywriters, as well as a few marketing consultants. Any one out there involved in this kind of freelancing?
I hope to pick up a bunch of ideas & tips from all of you, oldtimers and newbies alike, as well as share everything I have learned to date.
Currently, my biggest challenge is finding new clients...I am attending as many local networking events as possible on a regular basis, sending out direct mail letters, getting myself listed in all major business directories, etc. and am not getting the response that I had hoped for. I am very open to new ideas, especially guerilla-type marketing. I figured I'd check out this website and it seems like just the ticket.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Sincerely,
Marcie

Hi, Wish. It's sometimes difficult to tell via email if someone is being sarcastic or straight! Either way's fine with me. There's actually a story behind that username. Also, helps distinguish me from any other Marcies out there using their first name for their username.
So, Wish, what's your story? How long have you been on this site?
