Glen,
I think you shouldn't spend your time schmoozing ad agencies. I think the folks who need your services are small manufacturing companies; companies too small to hire someone to do CAD work but who need illustrations of their *proposed* products. Every town has a bunch of these small companies. I'll bet you can get work from them if they know you can make products "real" for them.
In my own business I can tell you that, even though 3D work isn't the bulk of what I do, nothing receives more praise from my clients. They see their product come to life and they get wet all over. :-)
In the past two months, I've done Carrara illustrations for four such companies: A book publisher who wants to see how their book will look before it goes to the printer, a manufacturer who wants to promote a free brochure in a trade magazines, a builder who wants to sell homes before they are built, and a tool manufacturer who is trying to raise money to introduce a new power tool to the marketplace.
