Hmm. Well, didn't expect that kind of response. It certainly wasn't intended to be sexist – more a light-heated critique of politics and organizations using appealing smokescreens to mask their internal machinations. Not convinced this is the community for me. I'll respectfully depart.

Ooops! Apols 😅

But that lasted about 2 months! The guy that hired me got fired! So I networked like crazy and let it be known that I was available for work.

#local-vancouver - March 06, 2020 at 12:23 AM

Pretty much. I had a couple and decided that if I could get one of them to commit to a certain number of hours/retainer I could make the jump.

It's a good way to do it – as long as you can keep from burning out! Stay sane 🙂

#local-vancouver - March 06, 2020 at 12:10 AM

Hats off to ya though!

#local-vancouver - March 06, 2020 at 12:10 AM

I was doing similar for a good while – had a full-time copywriting job and sidegigging too. But the leap to fulltime freelance was always endgame for me.

#local-vancouver - March 06, 2020 at 12:06 AM

How long you been doing that for?

#local-vancouver - March 06, 2020 at 12:03 AM

How's that working out for ya? 🙂

Planning a visit in May/June time (that is if this whole coronathingy blows over...).

#local-vancouver - March 05, 2020 at 11:47 PM

Looks like we have mostly in-house peeps here – which is cool (sauf moi). But then I'm not in Vancouver at all. But I do have several clients there – and a big ❤️ for the city!

#local-vancouver - March 05, 2020 at 11:43 PM

And hi to you too 🙂

#local-vancouver - March 05, 2020 at 10:06 PM

Account Based Marketing? It seems to be a panacea for everything (at the moment).

#local-vancouver - March 05, 2020 at 01:22 PM

Maaarning from the U of K! Am kicking off a series of short blogs (or shlogs...) on Medium. Basically they're a chance to vent and sound off in a (relatively) structured fashion. Check me one time, bruddas and sistas: https://medium.com/tbc-shlogs
