Hi robert

If you find a way - please let me know, I have been relatively fortunate
that the handful of clients I have had keep giving me regular work, but
changing circumstances mean that I have had to start thinking about
advertising.

I work as a retoucher and have started by compiling a database of potential
contacts using sources like 'Contact' and other directories, I don=B9t really
know how effective this will be - I get perhaps 5 percent lukewarm to
positive response within days but hopefully it is a way of getting the
silent majority at least aware that I ma out here, so in a pinch they might
give me a bell

As oscar wilde said - the only bad publicity is no publicity

Good luck mate
