Welcome to Creatives United!

Hi, I'm Kiki the moderator. I started this group because I was pissed
off that AIGA Atlanta costs so much annually, for so little
usefulness. What I really want from a designers' group is:
- getting to know other designers
- finding out about printers, sub-contractors, web developers, and
other businesses that we use
- warning about bad printers, clients, etc, as well as pimping good
ones
- freelance opportunities
- a place where I can ask for help/sub-contracting when I've got too
much work!
- sharing my knowledge and resources, like the great web-learning
sites I've found
- getting inspired by others work and ideas, and sharing my own
etc...
I think you'll agree this could become a really useful resource for
all of us! And the more Atlanta-area designers we get on this email
group, the more useful it will be! So please send out some invitations
to the designers you know, and let's make the FREE designers community
we want!
-Kiki


Here's a sample email you could send:

---
Creatives United is a new email group (listserve) for Atlanta and
Southeastern-based graphic designers, freelancers and other creatives.
My friend Kiki started it as a way for us to share resources,
knowledge, experience and opportunities -- sort of like a FREE AIGA
group.
Please join up by sending an email to this address:

creativesuni...@yahoogroups.com

Then we can dish on printers, talk about business climate, make
professional connections, and get to know each other!

Creatives United is a place for graphic designers and other creatives
– from Atlanta and the Southeast – to interact. We envision it as a
forum to share resources, knowledge and challenges: questions, advice,
recommendations, referrals, opportunities, and more.
