“Unfortunately the effects of the current global economic climate have trickled down to FITC and we have made the decision to cancel the FITC Chicago 2009 event scheduled in June. Our apologies to those who were interested in attending this event. Everyone registered for FITC Chicago will receive a full refund, as well as a free ticket to any FITC future event of their choice.”
If you’re a freelancer or even thinking about freelancing you don’t want to miss our panel discussion at FITC Toronto “Reality Cheque: Running a Freelance Business”!Â
This session will dive into helpful and practical subject matter that they didn’t teach you in school. We’ll provide you with tips and techniques to help you run a successful freelance business. Topics will include how to set your rates, factoring in taxes, making sure a contract is in your best interest and how to market yourself. So bring along your questions as well.
Panelists include Dana DiTomaso LakeStreet Communications , Kendra Gadzala www.gadzala.com, Nadine Lessio nadinelessio.com, and Stacey Mulcahy bitchwhocodes.com. And I’ll be moderating (Ann-Marie Cheung FlashGoddess.com).
FITC is even offering a special discount for freelancers and those who are out of work or have been recently been laid off, pretty cool!
I’ve been coming to this event for the past 7 years and it has always been great! I can’t wait!
I just added some new items to our Cafe Press Shop…Check it out!
If you have a used mobile phone, you can now return it to any Bell store across the country. Bell will donate $1.00 from the return of each used mobile phone to WWF-Canada’s climate change conservation efforts. Returned mobile phones will be reused or recycled, reducing the accumulation of e-waste in landfills.
In Canada, e-waste is now the fastest growing segment of solid waste. Bell has collected 232,000 phones since 2003, diverting 33 metric tons from landfill.
