There Are Many Ways to Skin a Freelance Copywriter February 27th, 2015 by Mona Sabbah on Beyond Madison Avenue
	As a freelance copywriter, how do you get business? I get this question a lot, both from clients and creatives alike. For a number of people, the ultimate goal is to work for themselves: their preferred hours, deadlines, and clients. Yes, experienced creatives have options.

The goal was to make sure the messaging across all global platforms was positive and consistent. Now, with the public relations taken care of, Brand USA is looking to bolster its creative component.

Race, Ethnicity, and AdLand February 23rd, 2015 by Dwayne W. Waite Jr. on Beyond Madison Avenue
	Yes, it is hard to go through February without bringing up the issue of race in advertising. It is one of those topics we feel won't be brought up unless we do.
