Norm's advice: Stop emailing creative directors. |
Via The Denver Egotist:
Stop Emailing Creative Directors
By Creative Director Norm Shearer
As adjunct teacher at CU Boulder and Cactus CD, I’m often asked to do informational interviews. I’m happy to do them when I can. I like giving young creatives feedback and helping them out, even when we aren’t hiring. Plus, I like to meet new people and stay connected to what’s going on. I have reviewed portfolios in the classroom, online and in every imaginable plastic, metal or leather case known to man. I’ve seen the good, the bad, and the ugly. And, I have a few thoughts to pass along to young, passionate creatives looking to break into the industry during one of the most competitive times I’ve seen.
Don’t email your portfolio. We get hundreds of emails a week from job-seekers. When you use email as an ice breaker, you become one of the masses. Custom mini-books, thumbnail samples, interesting snail-mailed items break through the clutter better. When I was out of school, I once mailed a post-card-sized chunk of dry wall to a CD. I hand-wrote something witty about “breaking” through. Maybe cliché. But, it was unique and customized to the person I wanted to reach. He called me back right away. Your first impression needs to be thought through and relevant, not just gimmicky.
