Jim Hlavac
Advertising Copy
Between 1985 and 2000 I wrote the words, the AD Copy, for hundreds of ads in a slew of magazines and
directories along the Gulf Coast. Sometimes the work was for an ad agency that would place that ad in a
multitude of publications, the likes of which I have no idea. But those that I did direct work for are:
OffBeat Magazine (New Orleans)
Louisiana Music Directory
BIC Magazine (Gulf Coast)
Lagniappe Magazine (Lake Charles)
HollyDaze Junior League Directory (Baton Rouge)
Business Plus! (Palm Beach County)
Florida Trade Show Company Directory (West Palm Beach)
Louisiana Construction Magazine (Baton Rouge)
Times of Acadiana (Lafayette)
West Side Journal (Houston)
Houma Business Journal
South Baton Rouge Journal
In Register (Baton Rouge)
And a slew of others that frankly I forgot at the moment. But I was either an employee or a contract worker or
a free lancer of some sort with all of these at one point in time or another. Or I worked with them, such as the
last in the list, solely with one client. It was a rigamarole to say the least. But it worked, and I got paid,
eventually.
