[quote=Anonymous]I'm an MB.  Professional photos would be irrelevant to me, and the website and ebook portfolio would be interesting but not determinative in my hiring you.  A far bigger issue would be your availability to interview in person.  I'm not sure I would hire anyone who didn't spend time with me and my family first.

So the things you're describing would set you apart, but I'm not sure in a way that would make me pursue you.  However, it might be that a very high profile family might see this differently.

I'm a garden variety WOH mother of twin toddlers.  I pay decently, offer great benefits, etc... but it isn't a $25/hr job.  I hired from recommendations from my neighbors - which carried tremendous weight.

All the best to you in your search, but don't spend a lot of your money on things that can't replace in person (or really good, repeated) face to face contact and references.  Put that money towards a plane ticket to come do interviews in person.  Flying out to be available for interviews WOULD set you apart in a very important, impressive way in my eyes.[/quote]
