Any Ideas

a well concieved, strategic solution to a clear communications problem you (in your expert opinion) feel could be solved. demonstrate this through comps, designs, and creative brief that lays-out not just the solution, but creativly, their 'problem'.
example; you have looked at all canned vegetable brands and you think they all suck in their online presence and packaging design.
- problem?: a smarter design would set them off from all the other shit brands and thus produce a tangible increase in market share (use related/parallel industries as examples).
- solution: design and develop static comps providing a solution as you see it w/ C. Brief that outlines your creative. present this as a complete proposal to someone you make your connection at said company. if they do not bite, you have great portfolio piece. if they do, hold on tight for that ride...... ;)

an idea I've been toying with for a while, is to hand make a book of your own work. It would be something which you can put nicely into a box, wrap it up and give it to them.
Everything about it can be customised and it would look sweet. I did a book making course which taught me how to make bound books and all sorts of different stuff. It took me all of two days in a community college.
it sure would be a good idea... if only I did it.

i remember reading about one lady who bought all these old wallets from a thrift store and put miniature samples of her work in the little plastic photo sleeves. In the spot for her drivers license was her business card. I can't remember if she mailed them or just dropped them off, but it made the front desk person look through it to find the owner to call them about their lost wallet. Never learned how that worked for her, or maybe i just don't remember.
