Visual Representation of Myself as a Brand

67% of emails are spam, if your'e unknown to somebody your email is more than likely to end up in spam. If they originally don't reply it may be an idea to inject some humour into you emails along with photographs; it's still worth a try.

If you telephone people, write a list of around four things you want to discuss.
To write a letter is the most personal and shows great interest. It also makes you check what you've written, in the way that as you write, after you write and seal the envelope we reread; unlike the instant typing of an email.

Zines and books (half filled that say: I/ we can fill in more if we work together)
Business cards: best websites Vistaprint and Moo, consider consistency with cards, letterheads etc.

Over Christmas try out producing a business card(s), try let it communicate who you are.
