yes, a physical card is better

Email quickly, always. Physical card immediately in the mail (like same-day immediately, and if you live in the same city, it'll be there like tomorrow). typically you could send to the office but you could also reach out to their office manager and find out what the mail forwarding process is like.

Yes

Yes good idea. Another good idea is asking the person you talk to (either in person at the end, or in the thank you/keep in touch email) if theres one other person, a friend of theirs somewhere, they would recommend you talk to informally. Good way to build the network and meet people at other agencies.

I have never done freelance work and was given the opportunity to take part in a cool project. My problem is it’s a proactive case by a brand new agency and it’s their own project, meaning there’s no client who pays for the work. For them it’s PR for their new business, but I think they’re expecting me to work completely pro bono. It does have potential for a great case and I’d love to have it in my portfolio, but is it reasonable for them not to compensate me? Any tips on how to approach this?
