Toronto ad fish 🤠 I’ve spent most of my career working as a copywriter in London (6 years here, 2 years Toronto) and the market is pretty different here. I’m planning on moving back home but wondered….how do you find work in Toronto? Agencies barely post openings, is the recruiter scene strong? Is it mostly who you know?

There is something called errors and omission insurance. Basically if you misrepresent a claim in your work or do something else like an art director shows a picture of the cn tower the client could be sued. And they would pass that to the agency. And the agency could decide to pass that to you. It’s multi level ass coverage.

This is correct- to a point. Talk to your lawyer who set you up, could be different coverage depending if you are an LLC or SoleProp.
Remember, freelance is the very end tip of the blame finger, not worth losing your house for a junior AC trying to cover their bum.
I do not have a layer on retainer. I am a freelance studio artist and that would be prohibitively expensive for me.
In 20 years in the industry I’ve never seen a studio/production person mess up so badly lawyers had to enter the fray.
