| Junior Member   |  Face-to-Face Marketing? -
01-13-2008, 05:20 PM
I live in a city with many advertising and design firms. My plan is to enter as many as possible and introduce my services to the firm (face to face encounters have been far more profitable to me in the past than cold calls in getting a job). Does anyone here have experience doing this? Any tips or suggestions on introducing one's services face-to-face, etc? Thanks a bunch in advance! |

Read Peter Bowerman's book The Well-Fed Writer to get ideas on this. He started his copywriting business by doing cold calls in which his goal was to set up a meeting. One-third of the time, he would walk out of a meeting with an assignment. His business was off and running in no time. And mind you, he had no copywriting experience at this time - only sales experience.
