west coast headhunter wanted
I’m in the market for a West Coast headhunter, somebody used to dealing with advertising and marketing creatives like myself.
I want to start spending more time on West Coast, helping high tech and next-generation businesses, ad agencies etc with my whole Hughtrain schtick.
The West Coast has been calling me for a while. Ready to make a move.
If you know anybody, please pass this page/link to them. Thanks.
Feel free to e-mail me here: hugh at gapingvoid etc.
Yesterday Paris, tomorrow Califor-ni-A.
Ahh, these marketing visionaries… so fickle.
Hugh, you think the West Coast will buy (and buy and buy) “The Vision Thing” more than the narrow-minded UK/European crowd who like things when they work for now to work forever?
Get that motivational crowd-pleasing performance tuned up — blogs ain’t gonna do it on the chat chat chatter TV circuit.

Don’t want to burst any bubbles — but marketing and advertising on the West coast ain’t all that cutting edge either. I think the cutting edge is happening in different pockets distributed all over the world and via the Net you find you aren’t alone. Early stage startups are up for more experimental stuff but rarely use headhunters, everything runs on trust networks, i.e. social networks out here.
It’s OK, Evelyn, just planting seeds
I got a couple of projects over there I’m working on already…
But if there are any headhunters out there, I wouldn’t mind talking to them. A man’s gotta eat.
