Hello everyone! I'm in an advanced advertising // copy writing class and one of my newest assignments is to come up with a way to promote myself to an advertising company. Let me be more specific. Along with my resume, I am (hypothetically)supposed to send something to an ad agency to make them want to look at my resume and portfolio. NOW THEN. Some of the ideas I have come up with: Designing a coffee cup with information about me making a collage of my pictures, poems, advertisements, songs, etc. Making a jingle and recording it onto a cd ???? some other people came up with: making themselves a personalized action figure, a self portrait, a coupon book, etc. Any ideas would be appreciated!!!

I like the coupon book - that'd be a huge source of "things about you"...what you can do, who you are, what you plan to do.... I can see it now "BOGO - buy one get one....brains and talent!!!" Course you'd have to be a little more creative and imagenitive about it, but I think there is alot you could do with it.. goodluck!

I would LOVE to use the coupon idea, but it was used by someone else in my class. I think your BOGO concept is awesome, but is too closely related to the coupon book a friend of mine is doing. I will keep that suggestion in mind down the road. Thanks for your input, I really appreciate it!

Then bring it into the 21st century and do an ATM card for yourself. Or a debit card with a "spending limit". how about a checking account about you! Or in light of the current mortgage foreclosure delimma...make yourself into a loan program...
