Do a brochure instead of a resume.  This is a great way to find temporary or
contract work which may lead to a full-time
position.  Send the brochure to your
target group, offering your services on a contract basis.  Speak to their needs on the front
cover.  Profile your projects and
accomplishments on the inside three flaps. 
Use the inside flap for quotes from your references.  Reserve the back panel for your mini
bio.  Include a photo if you’re good
looking.

Hand address the envelope you mail it in

Buy glossy brochure paper which will run through your
laser printer from stores like Office Max and Business Depot.  I order mine directly from Paper
Direct,  www.paperdirect.com

You can lay it out easily in Microsoft Publisher or a
similar program.

Lead with your best foot.

Keep it business-like in
tone.      

Keep the copy short.

Make sure your address and contact information are easy
to find.

Keep the font type to a serif because they’re easiest
to read.

Use italics and underline sparingly.

Make good use of white space.

Provide your website address.
