Want to spend month in the spotlight?
Last month we launched our new website feature where one of our freelancers writes a short article about their views on the advertising world. Martin Mol got the ball rolling with his comparisons between a creative’s working experiences in The Netherlands and in Slovenia. This month Arkadi Mazin looks at the evolution of attitudes in Russia compared to her neighbouring former Soviet states. Check it out on the home page http://www.thecollective.net/.
This feature is a great way to get your name in the spotlight in front of The Collective’s clients as the column is also featured in the monthly newsletter we send to them. So if you would like to grab your moment of glory please contact Wilma to book your slot.

Help improve The Collective’s search ranking
With our new website up and running, we’re doing all we can to make sure as many clients as possible get to see it. If you’re familiar with the way internet search engines work (and most of you probably are!) you’ll know that the more inbound links a site has the higher it ranks. We’re therefore asking you to help us build up our link count, by adding a link from your own website to http://www.thecollective.net/.
Having a link from your site to ours will help improve your credibility by showing you are represented by an agent with such a high-calibre portfolio. You can link directly to your own profile, which will also get your name more visible on the web.
The more visible The Collective’s site becomes the more likely we are to pull in new clients from around the world. You can work out for yourself why that’s a good thing as far as you’re concerned! So let’s get a true Collective effort going to bring in work for one and all.
Here’s what to do:
Contact Wilma to ask her for some text and a logo to use for the link.
To find your profile’s URL you should use the search facility to find the page and then click your name as it is listed under the search results. You need to click on your name in the results list even if it is the only one and the page is already showing, because the page that is displayed when you first get the search results is shown on a generic URL and is not your profile’s own URL. A correct profile URL will have a long number at the end of it.
