Downloadable: Contact spreadsheet
This is not sexy. But it is so important. What good is a perfectly researched, excellently produced project if it’s unpublished and unseen?
Absolutely, it’d be good on your portfolio. Yes, it’d be good to show to new clients. But we’re pushing a little higher than that right?
We want a national audience, and perhaps a little cash wouldn’t hurt.
With the button above, download the spreadsheet that I use to research contacts.
I’ve included five contacts to get you started, at PBS, The New York Times, National Geographic, Time Magazine, and NBC.
You can use this resource as you begin to pitch work to your growing list, to keep track of the project you’ve sent and when.
Please be careful with the contacts already in this spreadsheet. Make sure they’re relevant to your niche, only send work when it’s polished, and be very polite!
