From my friend Ilise Benun at Marketing Mentor: this looks to be a great event for all of us independents and you can’t beat the location! The Creative Freelancer Conference, slated for August 27-29, 2008 in Chicago, is the first and only business conference for self-employed creative professionals, serving graphic, web and interactive designers, photographers, copywriters, illustrators and anyone else who fits the bill of “creative solopreneur.” A panel of creative-business experts, led by Ilise Benun and co-founder, Peleg Top, will share best practices for pricing, marketing, building client relationships, crafting proposals and contracts, maintaining a work/life balance and other skills critical to freelance success. Creative Freelancer Conference Please share with other freelancers. Details are also posted on the ideaXchange Events page.
