For Members Only!

Hi all,

When I first became a C3 board member about 10 years ago, we used to have portfolio reviews so all board members could share what they did at work, their styles, and specialties. I met a woman on the board who worked for a food company, and she got me a job with them. I have worked for the company ever since and finished an assignment just two weeks ago.
 
Last year I produced a cookbook to use as a promo piece. It didn't take long before two C3 designers decided to collaborate on the book in exchange for a few copies and a tag line, saving a few bucks in my pocket.
 
At times I have clients that ask me to do a job outside my area of expertise. I look to C3 first, and passed a job along to a member just a few months ago.
 
Why am I sharing these short snippets? To show the importance of marketing by word-of-mouth. The best place to start is within our own organization.
