Click here Good read. I kept it in my marketing file for future reference. My mind swarms with new business info every day. On top of 15 college hours, running a family, marketing 30 hours a week, and making art, I've been learning everything I can about the art business. I blame BigBroTiki...he got me started thinking about where I want to go with my business, and now I have to do something about it! I love my job, though. My studio is 120 feet away from my bedroom. The phone doesn't ring in there. I don't punch a time-clock. I design my own work. I get to think for myself. I can play the music as loud as I want it. I set my own hours (which are longer than I ever worked before incidentally) and I can take a nap when I want to. I'm thinking about talking to some local flower shops to see if they would be interested in any of those mugs that are not moving from my shelves.
