(1) As a Copyist, I am finding that I am having a hard time locating
new clients, as many composers/arrangers have also purchased
notation packages and do their own work, as have several of my
former clients. What advice does anyone have on this?
take a few scores you think are out of your league in regards to
notational challenges or quality and bring yourself up to and beyond
that level, which will provide you with examples of your work you are
proud of.
develop your own fonts.
make better scores than others and learn how to work efficiently
under unreasonable deadlines.
contact the people you want to work for and propose something to them
explaining - very diplomatically - why your work is so great that
they should hire you. you may or may not hear back from them (soon,
or at all).
repeat the above from the top.
repeat the above from the top.
Some of the people I want to contact cannot be found with my attempts at
Googling them; probably because they don't want to be found.
or because they receive 400 other such emails per week and so don't
post their email address.
