My suggestion is always, keep your ears open, and TELL EVERYONE! Contact the people you already know in the professional field, who may need to re-vamp their voice-mail system. If you are an Alum at XYZ University, contact your former favorite professor ... do they know who you should contact to offer your talents to for an updated Web tour of the campus? There are so many options of where to begin, some that won't include a paycheck the first time ... but that build connections and contacts for the next paying job. Keep your ears open, and talk, talk, talk about it! (That is why you started this endeavor, right? To talk!)
