33. The only way to do
great work is to love
what you do. If you
haven't found it yet,
keep looking. Don't
settle. As with all
matters of the heart,
you'll know when
you find it.

If working at an agency is what you want to do. (id recommend it because it really helps you grow). At an agency you&#x2019;re going to wear many hats. Large agencies need specialists, smaller agencies need generalists. Regardless of what road you decide, always specialize in something because it will make you irreplaceable; however, learn bits of everything to make yourself valuable.\n

Plenty of free resources to build a free website. If you don&#x2019;t have work to show. Consider pro-bono work to build your portfolio or do small projects. You can also get an about.me profile which links all your social networks such as your twitter,facebook and linkedin.\n

This is always the hardest part of freelancing. Pricing and estimation. One of two ways. Charge low rate and bill more hours. mentality here is the client thinks they are getting more for their money. or charge high rate and bill actual hours. I recommend charging low initially then moving into more premium rates\n
regardless of if you work for an agency or if you decide to freelance. these are 3 tips that will lead you to career success\n
Explore new ideas, take some risks, be open-minded. innovate. read and research latest trends and technology\n
grab lunch with co-workers. get outside your comfort zone. meet with management and upper-level. tell story of grabbing coffee with the ceo and how he said no one ever does that and he appreciated it.\n
Be accountable. Be prompt. If you have questions, ask. It&#x2019;s better not to assume. be a good listener and keep your mind open. voice your opinion. They want you to sometimes cause ruckus. However be sure to have a reason why your opinion should be heard. best campaigns are built through collaboration\n
\n
Someone who has experience in the field. Inspires you. Challenges you. Has a good network of contacts. Find someone who will help you throughout your career.\n
read industry and agency blogs, free tutorials online, take classes\n
