Are there ever freelance gigs within agencies that will pay for people to come in from out of state?

I use to often get gigs where they would fly me in but now with more and more people working remotely I’m seeing it less.

They’re rare but not unheard of.

Art & Letters in Richmond flew a friend out for a couple weeks.

Facebook (I know, not an agency) in CA has done it as well.

I worked with some CDs at McCann NY who were based in Utah and flew in. Not sure if McCann paid for them though.

I think it depends on your reputation and agency background. I got out of state gigs when I was young and a big name agency was fresh on my resume. And the heavy hitters are always going to get these opportunities.

Any other tips and tricks that work for you? In general we automate savings first and kind of reflect on the bills at end of month and note where to tighten for the following month but I feel like we need more discipline

A lot of folks, this bowl included, are getting a reality check at the moment, which i think is good for learning experiences. Can’t call yourself an “investor” but the second you see a position fall +20-30% start to question or panic sell. However, if this is you, and your equity position was initiated off a whim or a blind recommendation, I struggle to feel any sympathy lol especially if you were someone buying stocks (MGNI for example) when they were approaching ATH

I’m contracting with a company in an admin role, but sometimes I’m asked to do projects that would normally be outsourced to a marketing or design company like designing a flyer for example.

Is it out of the question to ask if I can be paid for that work under a separate fee as a consultant or something? Is that even possible?

I have used butterfly needles for phlebotomy since the beginning of my Nursing career.

Should I mention this to my manager? How can I approach this situation?

Why does the 3% Conference get so much money from agencies & clients when they have a history of showcasing toxic, abusive to female employees underneath them, women in advertising?

But agencies and clients should take a hard look at who is speaking before giving money.
