THE IMPORTANCE OF REFERRALS

It is always good to work closely with other people in the freelance world.

Other professionals are the source of referrals and therefore jobs.

If you have a pile of business cards from professionals who you trust you are also able to offer your clients a more comprehensive service that means they can pick and choose the people with the skills they require without paying an agency…

With that in mind I met up with Simon Jessop the other day – a photographer who I have worked with before.  We grabbed a meal and a pint at The Crown in Farringdon – just round the corner from his studio.

Simon has already given me one really good referral – and although I haven’t been able to return the favour yet, a few months ago I made him look good in a ‘behind the scenes’ web video shoot for a magazine – see what you think:

And here is Simon’s shot they went with for the front cover:

 

So given Simon’s kind referral I’ll return the favour and recommend him to everyone reading this post!  Hire him, he’s brilliant: Simon Jessop
