Subject:Co-op business -- need Specialists From:Allan Sand <asand -at- FLASH -dot- NET> Date:Sat, 14 Jun 1997 09:22:26 -0700
Hi everyone,
Some of you are aware that I'm starting a Co-op in the San Francisco Bay
Area for writers. I've finished the business plan, and am currently
cleaning up my mailing list. The next step is to call the companies and dig
out the contact name in the Pubs Dept. (Question: should I include
Marketing Directors as a target?)
I'm looking for writers with very strong specialized experience and skills
of all fields. (Specialization should help overcome distance.) Part-time
is acceptable.
I also need related fields, i.e., indexers, editors, web wizards, etc.
(If you can, send resume in Word format.)
I need examples of Contracts between Companies and Agencies, and Agencies
and Talent. Is there a book?
See attached Word file for more info. Send questions and comments.
