Email your portfolio. Honestly, those stunts are rarely received well. What’s your idea for the self promo?
Also most agencies can’t/won’t legally accept or open any emails with “ideas” for existing clients, opens them up to litigation
“We cannot accept unsolicited ideas."
Don’t send unsolicited work. You can ask someone to have coffee and being your book, and that’s a million times better than an unsolicited resume email or - worse - Office drop in
Like, an idea for a brand they work on? Send it to the CD who’s in charge of that brand. Look up past work from awards and you’ll find the CD name. Then you can look up any email address from the company to find their email format. Good luck!
