    LinkedIn / Networking, #1 option IMO.

    Get contacted about projects all the time, from major ad agencies or direct clients. Just about every exec in an ad agency or major company uses it. Build your network. Every time you work for a company, connect with all of the folks you work with. Then get references or referrals.

    Those other places are hit or miss and not really places you can actually "look". You basically put a folio up and wait for a client to look for you. LinkedIn allows you to actually do something about getting new clients.

    I'd imagine being repped is great but definitely not through a place like Aquent / Create Circle...unless you don't mind them getting a 90% cut of what's being charged.

    What do you do if you don't mind me asking?

    • reps always take a cut, that's how they work. and they have decent work sometimes, just gotta be picky.doesnotexist
