In a nutshell, your skills and all you have to offer are inside the box and the way in which you market yourself is the package and advertising.

Marketing is the backbone of you as a business! Your talents and your skills are what secure you the job but we need to get you out there and seen by the people you want to be seen. There is no point in having an amazing product but no one seeing it or only the wrong people are seeing it.
