In Anchorage, its nearly impossible to attract a tv spot client unless you work for an established ad agency. 

Low end ads are easier to sell cold. We are talking in the 500-1000 range, usually attractive to mom & pop shops about to go out of business. 

Try walking a trade show floor and see who has demo videos, start a conversation. 

Approach a potential client with a PSA script & offer to produce it for free. 

Make an informative infomercial demo-ing your best and offering to create a web ad for free with slides or an iPhone with every 30 sec spot.
