Howdy,

I hope you're well!

I'm a photographer currently on the lookout for new work opportunities.

I'd love to buy you coffee or a pint to introduce myself and show you my work.

Please check out my website at www.willienashphoto.com

I think the PEOPLE section would be of most interest to you, but please mosey on to the FINE ART section as well.
A bit about me: I'm from New York City but my studio is now based in East London. I've got years of experience behind me working in portraiture, fine art, and commercial photography. More recently, I've been commissioned by bands and solo artists for their portraits and some live gig photography.

I'd love your feedback on my work and a chance to meet face-to-face. Feel free to suggest a date and I'll lock it in the diary.

Many thanks,
Willie



Hello!

I am an Illustrator based in London. I produce mostly editorial illustrations, which can be figurative, colourful, conceptual, hand-drawn or digital (usually a mix of the two), humorous, serious, loud, quiet, or anything in between. I am able to produce a wide range of illustrations, whilst keeping a recognisable style.

Here is a recent illustration, used for promoting summer activities at a venue in London.

I am available for commission and would love to pop by and introduce myself and my portfolio. Or I would be just as happy to discuss your illustration needs over the phone.

Take a look at my online portfolio, and please feel free to get in touch regarding any upcoming projects.

Kind Regards

How to maximise your email open rate

facebook directory search twitter twitter BikiniLists.com connects you with YOUR creative market - Get the free trial...


So you've worked hard on your last project and the time has arrived to promote your work to the rest of the creative industry in the hope that your next project is just a 'click' away. How do you ensure that your email get's firstly into the inbox of your next client and secondly that they open it? I'm Gillian the promo's manager at Bikini Towers and I'm going to take you through the best practice in email marketing to help you get an increased open rate on your next campaign and hopefully a big juicy client!

Firstly you need to understand how email marketing works, if you haven't already had a chance then I suggest you watch our slide show Email Marketing - what creative buyers want here you will get an idea of how to make your email marketing inviting to the 'Creative Buyer God's'. 

Once you have prepared your next email campaign using the advice from  Email Marketing - what creative buyers want  your work is still not complete. One of the biggest problems all email marketers face is the dreaded spam filter! Spam filters are the bouncers of the nightclub; they stand guard at the email door of your creative buyer and decide who comes in and dances the night away and who is in the next taxi home with a portion of chips and cheese! Spammers are the 'chav's' of the email world. They spend their lives in little dark rooms banging out useless email that we have all received from one time or another. I lose track of the amount of times Viagra has been on special or I have been offered the chance at a cut of some money sitting in an off shore account belonging to Prince Akeem Joffer of Zamunda (note the Coming to America reference film buffs)! Nobody likes these sort of emails in their personal inbox and when it comes to business inboxes these types of emails are not tolerated, they slow down email productivity and usually have viruses attached. So the spam filter of your creative buyer is looking for anything and everything that might be classed as spam and you need to make sure you are not on that list. 

So what are the rules of the spam filters... At this point I would love to tell you that there are hard and fast rules to follow to guarantee success, but if we knew the rules then so would the spammer's and that would render the spam filter useless! However fear not, we at Bikini Towers know enough about email marketing and spam filters to have a pretty good idea of the things that your email should avoid at all costs if you want to make it into the best inboxes. 

Images - Too many images and your email will be rejected. The spam guards like to read as they think they are brain boxes! If you think it looks cool putting your image and your text into one large jpeg then think again. The spam guards will reject your email as 'spam' because they can't 'read' your image and if they can't confirm the content of the email is safe then you are not getting in. 

It's all about text based content - Senders send way too many images and not enough content. Take a little time to write something interesting and engaging to your prospective Creative buyer and not only will they reward you for it, so will their spam guards. 

Avoid spam phrases - The spam filters are wise in their battle of fighting the spammer and unfortunately sometimes the legit marketers get caught in the crossfire. Avoid certain phrases like 'Dear' as in 'Dear Creative Buyer' the spam guards really don't like the word 'Dear' so use an alternative like Howdy, How'do, anything but Dear. Try and be as creative with your emails as you are with your photography or illustrations. Keep them light, upbeat and maybe inject a little humour and automatically you will avoid the spam guards because you look like you should be in the club. 

DON'T SHOUT - SHOUTING in your subject line is wrong wrong wrong! I can't emphasis this enough. TYPING IN ALL CAPS = SHOUTING AND IS RUDE. Don't type in all caps anywhere in your email...EVER!

Finally there are a few things in the background that need to be in place to beat the spam guards. These include how unsubscribe links are written, sending plain text and html versions of the email amongst others. Fortunately as a BikiniList subscriber we do all the dirty work so all you need to do is write a fun, engaging email without shouting and stick an amazing image on it and we'll do all the rest. As you can see, your emails can get flagged as spam, even if you're not a spammer. Your email delivery can suffer, even from an innocent mistake. If enough innocent mistakes happen, BikiniLists overall deliverability can suffer. So we're working hard to prevent that.
