AW: Omg...

So, I'm a graphic designer who's been desperately trying to find a professional "home" for about 6 months. I've been filling in the gaps by doing freelance and contract work, but mostly things that have fallen in my lap.

On Friday, I decided to go all out and actually start marketing myself, etc when I joined on with a new marketing firm that's opening. They will then reference my company as a "partner".

So, 5 minutes ago, I just registed the domain and have been designing my website all morning! OMG!

Coming soon, Punctuate Design Studio.

That's really exciting for you!! I wish you the best of luck in getting your business started. What kind of design will you do?

I probably won't be ready to do it for a while because I'm still in SAHM mode right now but my freelance writing website is in desperate need of a redesign. What do you charge for something like that? PM me and I'll send you my email address.

Well, mostly I do a ton of marketing material - logos, brochures, flyers, mailers, emails, web design, blah blah blah. I spent 5 years as the marketing coordinator for a software company and was responsible for all written and graphic work that left the building, basically. When I was laid off, I started doing the same thing freelance. I've designed more business cards than I care to admit.

I recently had a short-term contract with another software company doing the same thing - brochures, logos, marketing shwag and promotional material.

Jane of All Trades all up in here.
