    fair enough, self-promo is one thing, demonstrating the ability to work to client specifications is another. If i was trying to beef up my portfolio, i'd evaluate companies brand strategies and making up ads or logos etc. that compliment their current brand direction, this shows that you understand brands and can come up with work that keeps true to a companies target market. Just coming up with random designs is great artistically, and great if you're a superb designer, but it doesnt show that you understand a companies needs and can convert their needs into a proper adversitment, logo, etc.
