Grand London, Grand Dreams

 With my new job offering at Baby Creative, everyday of the past week has me thinking seriously about my future. After excitedly telling everyone about my new position, I am now calmly planning out what I want to do for the next few years. I did plan to stay in London til November 2009, which is less than 2 years away, but with this new oportunity, I feel it necessary to stay longer. I have discussed this with my wife, Debbie, who also is having career successes of her own, and both of us agree that to give ourselves enough time to see where these new opportunities will take us.

With this promising future ahead of us, I want to start making a name for myself as a serious designer and London is the place to do this. I am currently on several on-going projects, including my charcoal drawings, my animation series and developing an online presence seems to be a neccessary part of becoming famous. I want to really establish myself using the available technologies, even exploring new ways in which to reach more people. Currently I feel that I’ve really only been playing around with the internet and not seriously considering just how powerful it is to use as a marketing tool. Just to record where I am at the moment, I currently have a website: www.pangemanan.com which isn’t really attracting all that much traffic (currently about 200-300 hits a month). And I have this blog. My goal is to work on increasing my monthly traffic and I to do this with regular updates on this blog, regular content uploads on my website, generate interest via online art and design communities and keeping in touch with people via social networks like facebook and MySpace. There are other technologies that I can explore, such as RSS, podcasts etc, but I think I have enough to start with to keep me busy for the next few weeks. Get ready world! I’m determined to jump on this information super high way with as many flashing lights and loud noises to draw as much attention to my self to make everyone remember the name Pangemanan.
