FN-FORUM: New Business

date posted 14th November 2007 18:15


Hi guys,

Having recently decided to 'go it alone' I am currently trying to build up =
my client base. So I thought I'd send an email out to this forum in an atte=
mp to obtain new business. I am at present sorting out advertising and rede=
signing my website in accordance with my new corporate identity. This will =
also display more recent work. However if anyone is interested in viewing m=
y current portfolio then please feel free to ask and I will mail a PDF cont=
aining work samples.

Profile:
34 year old Creative Designer/Artworker based in Warwick, with eight years =
experience encompassing design for print and some new media. Projects inclu=
de brand design, brochures, catalogue design and artwork, POS, corporate id=
entity, illustration, logo development and project and studio management. W=
orked in both permanent and freelance positions. Ten months with previous e=
mployer in an in-house design department, mainly working on catalogue desig=
n and production. Previously Junior Designer for a small creative agency, t=
hen Creative Designer for a repro house, then five years working as a freel=
ancer on various types of contracts. These ranged from catalogue design and=
management through to the design and co-ordination of bid submission prese=
ntations for a large construction company in the Midlands. Then as a Projec=
t Manager/Designer for a large retailer, mainly working on catalogue design=
and production.

I charge =A330-=A340 an hour or =A3250 a day depending on the size of the j=
ob. I would ask any interested parties to contact me by mail or phone to di=
scuss their requirements. If after viewing my portfolio you are still inter=
ested then I would require a full brief from which I can provide an accurat=
e estimate. If you would like to take things further after receiving the es=
timate, then I require a purchase order or an order to commence work by ema=
il.=20

I will then progress with the project and present concepts on boards or as =
a PDF by email. I ask all new clients to pay a proforma before any major wo=
rk commences. This would usually be 50% on order (or on presentation of con=
cepts) then 50% on delivery of artwork.
