Hi, I'm slipping my toes into the freelance waters. I was previously with broadcast tv news and then corporate video. Many, many years ago I wrote a couple of articles for a regional mag but haven't done any other freelance since. And I got out of writing for about 12 years and am just getting back in.
I've moved to 2 other states since I last worked in media, so I've lost my network and am trying to develop it again.
I want to write content for websites, print for regional mags/weekly newspapers, and videos. I'm going to pursue it seriously (while still keeping my day job and writing fictions too). Last fall I wrote a video script for a local group and have just been hired to write a second.
I plan to market myself more, so I need business cards to hand out to prospective clients. My husband is self employed and active in two chambers of commerce so he could also hand out cards for me.
I'm thinking about one with a simple, elegant pen design that would say:
My Name
writer
online, print, video
email address
I don't like giving out my phone number to just anyone ... I would write it on the card if I really wanted someone to have it.
What do you think? Do you have business cards, and if so, what do they say? Thanks for your help.
