You can even go one step further. Upload your files to the server where your website is, but don't link to them on your page...just give your clients the direct link.
My website, looks totally empty, but I use it all the time to pass on work to my customers like this. http://www.johniron.com/sebastian/reference/Sebastian-Pro-Flow.avi
If you need help with the technical side of setting up a system like this just post me.
It's why I have a website with my demos on it. I just send them the link to my demos. It seems to work best when I send them the direct link and not to the homepage.
Like this...

That way I didn't make them work to hard. Also if they request a resume in the original post, I just let them know that I will send it if they are interested. I also want to know who they are. That way I'm not spreading my personal info all over the place to strangers I don't know. True you have to be careful on Craigslist. I usually go with my gut feeling and always answer ads. I don't post them. I kind of think it could make you look to desprite for money and may you an easy target to be messed with.
Hope that helps.

A little story: I have a client in Brazil that I've developed through the past year. I always tease them that Portugese is "bad Spanish". My client now tells his producer to "hire that guy that speaks bad Portugese."
The way business is carried out in one area can differ a lot from another. The Valencia region where I come from and live, many would say is a half way house… but at the end of the day, we can’t loose sight of the fact that we are conducting business.
Just a quick question - out of curiosity. Is there a cultural difference between the "familiarity" thing between Spain and the U.S.? Just wondering. I've noticed that in most Spanish countries my clients are FAR more open and interested in building friendships.
Now, here in the States I've noticed that it seems to follow regional lines. In the midwest and the south, clients for the most part are completely open to visiting and chit chat. They're sort of open in NY, and by the time you get to LA it's all business and very little time for interaction.
Anybody else notice that...or something different?
