Some things I do myself already. A lot of people that went to my school complain they cannot get a job in their field. It was hard starting out and I still encounter some snags here and there but compared to A LOT of my class, out of school for a year, I've accomplished a lot. Being active in the design community by doing a lot of things in this list is a great way to gain expose, which in turn, gains you clients :) These are a lot of great ideas.

I've seen a lot of mediocre designers get paid more than they're worth because they had confidence and asked for a lot of money up front, and at the same time I've seen great designers go unnoticed because of their lack of sales skills.

I have been working as a freelancer for last 6 years mostly working in and around Flash technology. Never had time to think I can expand myself so nicely into more directions and also push up my earnings too by learning these new tricks. I too will try to find new avenues for showing my work at marketplaces you mentioned. I have written it on my daily diary to learn jquery and css3 this year for sure. Thanks for this informative article. Jay Hi Nick
