As most of you know, in addition to being “just” a graphic designer, I also spend a large majority of my time creating Web sites and teaching. Recently, I was asked to help with the development of a new curriculum for a University level class on Social Media Marketing.
It occurred to me, after giving the subject a test-drive in one of my classes that these soon up-and-coming professionals know very little about HOW to actually market THEMSELVES.
That being the case, I am launching a new series called, “Market Yourself”. If you’re a freelancer, full-time designer or still a student, these keys to getting your name out there are absolutely invaluable.
Nearly every media tool that we discuss will hinge on how well you use it as an artist!
We’ll be exploring the “How-To’s” of Social Media marketing and the best way to use it to your advantage! Grab a seat and strap in, let’s get started!
I’ve heard a lot about this new phenomenon. I can’t wait to hear more about it! Please keep writing on this subject!
Marketing myself is one of the hardest things as a freelancer. I hope to glean a lot from this series!
Marketing myself is one of the hardest things to do as a Freelancer. I hope to glean a lot from this series. I wish there was a set “price” for the services I offer.
