I began sending queries out this week, after I started getting a stream of postings that didn’t require bidding in the traditional sense. There’s one Twitter account that is sending out the Craigslist writing jobs/ gigs from major cities around the country. It’s a mixed bag lot of course, but I see one or two that strikes me as worth querying. The Twitter account, for anyone who wants it, is writersjobs. This is something that came through yesterday that took some thought : http://austin.craigslist.org/wrg/1925841688.html It said to email for details, and didn’t say to send samples in the email, so I didn’t. I did give a line or two of background and noted that I could end samples if it would help them ”in their in thei decision making process”. I’m not real sure of the protocol on these things. — kind of winging it
First off…thanks for the Twitter user, I will set them up so that their updates come into our Activity Stream.
The real protocol is to follow the instructions to the letter (as you did) and be ready to fire back any samples or other details they may want.
Thanks. Can I ask one another question? Another kind of big-deal post came through one, a very different one, and it did detail specifics about what to send, but I have a couple points of uncertainty. (Just not certain enough what I am doing yet, and there are certain things that leave this question mark in my head.)
