I am starting a new section, or regular addition, or what ever you want to call it, to my blog. "Lindsay's Lesson of the Day" begins today. Just to be clear, I will not post a new lesson everyday, but will post as often as they come up.
So here is the story... Colin, my old intern came into the studio today to show me some new work and to talk about getting into the business as an assistant (he will be an excellent assistant). I was going through some old postcards that I have be sent in the past and pulled out a few that I really liked. One postcard I even had on my 'to call' board. For one reason or another I never called that assistant. I never heard anything else. I filed that postcard and now years later I wonder what ever happened to that assistant. ... please follow up. If you send a postcard or call or send an email and I do not respond, that is just because I am busy or have a favorite assistant at that time. But things change and people move on and it is always good just to send a hello as a reminder that you still exist.
I will tomorrow take my own advice and follow up with a few people.
