When you work for yourself, being a great designer alone doesn't cut it. You also have to know how to bring work in -- and that's an art in it's self. What gets you "in the door" and what makes a client actually agree to assign a project to you? There are many answers. At the August Buzz, we're very excited to have Kristan Butler join us and share her thoughts on the pitching / proposing process. If you have been at this for a while, be ready to share what you have learned through trial and error.

About the Speaker:

Kristan is a designer and art director with 7+ years professional studio, corporate and freelance experience and a hybrid skill set spanning print and digital media. A newcomer to Denver by way of Washington DC, she joined gyro in 2010, where she has been a key part of new business pitches and winning bigger projects from current clients.

A big fan of variety, Kristan has been a vital part of a global ad agency, boutique design studio, corporate in-house agency, and has worked independently as freelance designer. She studied Design and Art Direction at Portfolio Center in Atlanta after graduating from The University of Virginia.

Some of her previous work can be seen here: www.kristanbutler.com.
Please RSVP so we can let Treehaus know how many pastries to make.
