My suggestion:
get a hold of all the staffing firms in the area, ie Aquent, The Creative Group... and find out where they're sending people. DON'T SIGN UP WITH THEM. Call up the places and tell them you'd be willing to work for 80% of what they pay the staffing companies. I used to freelance for the companies around DC and made about $35 hr for print design. I got an full time agency gig soon after, and left 8 months later. Now, it's not outrageous to ask for $100/hr after I left that shit and got a handle on how it works. You'd be surprised how much those companies pay the staffing places, and how much they hold out from you.
