A while back we did a presentation to a bunch of illustrators from on the art of self promotion. The result of the sessions was 7x7 — a piece of self promotion which they then used to send to commisioners and other people in the know.

I’ve edited & converted the presentation into a .pdf and put it online for anyone interested to download — share the wealth and all that. The presentation includes 12 steps to self promotion and offers ideas for various self promotional tools and some other stuff.

Even though the presentation is aimed at illustrators I hope others might find it useful too, and if you do, please pass on the link and leave us a comment or two.
