Fellow Xavier Hoops Fiends,
I was recently laid off (along with the entire business development team and then some) from my Marketing Director position at a national Healthcare company in the Indianapolis area. It was nightmarish to watch the major banks squander mounds of cash leading to up to the financial crisis and then to watch our team of Principals simply repeat this process until they were forced to cut down the workforce in order to continue to make payroll. Needless to say, you never think it can happen to you... but as long as you work for someone else, your career path is never completely in your own hands.
I am not looking for sympathies here - if I was, I would head over to the warm, loving arms of MrNegative and that other board. What I am looking for is, well, help - introductions, connections, work, etc...
I am currently freelancing both Marketing/Branding/Web/SEO services and Video Editing work. Freelancing is ebb and flow and it is always nice to have too much work to handle. I am currently doing contract marketing work for a Branding firm called Tactic (www.tacticmarketing.com) and any marketing work would be in collaboration with the fine people at Tactic. You can also see examples of my video work at www.OnCars.com, for whom I edited videos for nearly a year (specifically the Audi A4, Mini John Cooper Works, Lincoln MKS, Hyundai Genesis, and many more). Basically, I am a nationally recognized Brander with strong experience in the healthcare, dental, and technology industries.
[Now for an emotional appeal]
I have two very young daughters at home and I really need to get back to steady work... because watching the kids all is the hardest thing I have ever done in my life. (Not where you thought I was going with that, huh?)
Any help is will be appreciated beyond imagination. Best of luck to everyone in 2011 and will someone please find Titan a job as well?
Thanks in advance. God Bless.
