Business Tips for Face Painters, Body Artists and Make-Up Artists #7 – Setting Your Rates

The 1st of the month is that it has come to introduce the seventh sentence from my e-book "Futaku Picture Business". Of course, if you want to get all the information published in my book, please check the method here now.

The "Painting Business with Face" published in September 2009 is currently in the final stage of the additional book "Painting Technology with Face", and will be released later this year. is.

Beginners are interested in setting the price of the person's picture. There are a lot of things to consider, but the desired goal is to cover the cost and increase the profit.

The following is an excerpt from Chapter 2, "Face Business" in this book.

Price setting

If you have just started a job to draw people as a professional artist, the question will be, "How much should I pay?"

When I just started working in this industry, I think everyone has faced the problem of price setting environment. Some beginners think that they should work at a lower price than experienced artists, while others think that they should volunteer or "free" to gain experience and practice. Masu.

Proposing your service can help you create a portfolio and gain work experience, but can be a disadvantage for yourself and the industry. First, a potential client may find a "newcomer" that gives the impression of "going shopping" and works for free. Second, you will give you a product made by spending your own money and spend money. Neither of them needs either.

When I just started working as a professional makeup artist, we were taught that we had to take a fee at school to cover the cost and expenses for work. Students and new graduates were often recommended for "free work", but materials and expenses were always refunded. What if this applied this to a face paint artist?

When I started face painting, I had the same hourly wage as makeup service. Immediately, I noticed that I was drawing many people at the same time. In the first year, the hourly wage increased by 50 %, and the following year increased by 50 %.

So what is the real value of your time? Have you ever thought about it? I thought so and developed it to help you set your price based on your own cost.

Give a number and stand on the start line:

What is the lowest wage in your jurisdiction? For example, I will understand $ 8, 00/ time, in fact it is considered impossible in Canada.
What are you every time you drive? Car, insurance, business forms (accounts, flyers, business cards, etc.), furniture and home appliances (tables, chairs, gazebo, unprofitable symbols, etc.), costs for providing common (telephone/ mobile association, site, site, ), If you have an ad, office or warehouse building. Figure a
What is your cost? Cosmetics, complexion, napkins, glitter, tattoo, disinfectant, hands, lips, brushes, etc. (B)
Calculate the number of hours you actually worked last year (C) and multiply based on the minimum wage per hour. (C × 8 dollar = D)
Total of annual necessary expenses. (A + b = e)
The average number of working hours (c) can be attracted within 1 hour. This is a continuous number of contracts for one year. (F)
Divide by painting the communal cost. (E/f = g) This is the cost per capita.
Combine communal costs and wages (e+d = H), then divide by continuous number of people (H/F = I). This is the minimum payment per person.
To calculate the hourly wage, the method of finding the minimum payment for one person's personality by multiplying the number of people who can draw in one hour, and the method of dividing the communal cost and wage by working hours (the same is the same). You can arrange it in two ways.

The following models based on the above (rational cost assessment) are shown below:

Sales cost (a) $ 3.

Decision cost (b) $ 2. 000

General expenses (E) $ 5.

Number of working hours (c) 177

X $ 8 for the minimum human case per hour

Number of working hours (c) 177

X number of people who pull out per hour 12

Total (F) 2.

Total cost (E) $ 5.

Divide the continuous number (F) by 2. 124.

The first fee is $ 2, 35.

Total cost (E) $ 5.

General expenses and wages (H) $ 6.

Expenses and wages (H) $ 6.

Divide the continuous number (F) by 2. 124.

The minimum payment amount (i) $ 3, 02

Minimum payment amount per person (i) $ 3, 02

Number of spots per hour 12

Minimum hourly wage $ 36, 24

General expenses and wages (H) $ 6.

Divide by working hours (c) 177

Minimum hourly wage $ 36, 24

Are your results more than what you are currently taking? If not, you are on the right road. If you're more in real time, you will probably think of increasing compensation for you, give you a welding option, but the minimum salary!

This practice is intended to be viewed from a purely economical point of view. I think we can definitely agree that we are worth more than the minimum wage.

I have created an Excel spreadsheet that can do this, so please download it from this link: Excels Speed Sheet "the first cost"

The other issue of the price setting is the market value of the picture and how much value to put in your own time. What is your priority? Do you want to work more and earn more, or do you want to earn more and work less? Other variables include market prices, competitiveness, and stimulated market abilities.

The easiest way to get information about the current market is to check the yellow page, contact other painters in your area, and contact the price. By doing so, you can see the market price. That way, you can apply this knowledge to determine your value. Use is not exactly what you want to do! Don't forget that you want to make a profit in this business, so you shouldn't underestimate the cost to beat your rivals. This is not important. You are trying to know what the market is providing and how many people are addicted to paying for makeup. When you ask this, check what you are gaining specifically as a price. Is this literally the same service you offer? Or is there a lot or less?

Look at what you actually offer, compared to your competitors. What are the characteristics of your sales? Did you won the Award for the Awards, took a course, participated in the meeting, or got an art degree? What are you special and unique? And how can you add this special talent and training to your own price? If you can provide more than that, you are obliged to charge more charges!

Face Painting rates vary greatly depending on the region. In addition, there is a good chance that the professionalism and technology of the artist will be reflected in the price, for example! You need to know the price of the area where you live. Don't be humbled, listen over the phone!

Also consider how many hours to work. If you have the option to shorten your working time to make the same amount of food, do you do that? Or do you want to earn more without increasing working hours?

Now that the hourly wage is $ 60 and you are completely busy. I refuse because you can't work. What happens if the hourly wage is raised to $ 80? Will the order be lost? For example, if you order 20 hours a week with an hourly wage of $ 60, you can earn $ 1. 200 a week. If you stay 20 hours, you can receive $ 1, 600, that is, $ 400 per week.

In fact, this basically happens. In other words, reservations do not increase, but they have been open for those who could not make a reservation before, so they are full.

To get more inquiries, spread your name, put out ads, distribute business cards, respond to the client's impression, and tell them to your friends! Feel free to sell yourself when you get a phone call.

It is a continuation of the above example, but if the price is still enough, if the price is raised, it is still enough ... Please raise the price again! Let's make $ 90 per hour. Compare the number of requests received with the number of reservations. If there are 3 or 4 reservations in 10, this will be an excellent indicator. Working hours are small, but income is high!

You can continue the same thing until you find your "support point", that is, the indicator that gains the maximum profit with the smallest effort. If you want to secure time with your children with the maximum income or spend time on other things, don't be afraid.

And don't forget to review all of these regularly. This is because the market changes depending on the economic situation, the market you are targeting changes depending on your interest, and your experience, talent, and training may increase your value that your client feels.

My past life as a clown

You may have heard the names of my old clown. The name of a runaway tribe leader in a slightly poor Canadian movie with a computer botanist as the main character, and was in trouble with a bicycle ride. This giant man has a lon g-lasting hair, his name seems to be funny to his mother.

As a result, when I had been thinking for 10 years about how to add clown to my face painting proposal, she suggested this title. It was cute, but my wig was just that color, so it turned out perfect.

When I first started face painting, I found the hook of "extra". The first makeup was.... Well, it was very annoying. If you don't understand anything about clowns, you need to study.

I studied the clown situation and types quite a bit. The suits were all rudimentary, but.... Unusually, almost all the luggage from my wardrobe in the 1980s came very well for clowns... lol...

In 2002, I attended the Mooseburger Clown Art Camp, which was a great learning experience.

If you're going to dress like a clown, you have to learn to be a real clown.

All my suits were mine - the clothes were Minnie Mouse suits, my mother sewed my socks, a long sleeve shirt to match the color of the heart look, she sewed my bag, I made the waist and shoes. There were few clown shoes, I was a rudimentary one with a brush and a pompom on a reddish canvas shoe. I tripped in the air, as a result, I did not want to risk destroying my neck for myself.

At Mooseburger, I learned almost everything. We were all doing clowns that had to rehearse for the show that was going to be shown to the public.

I would recommend the Clown Art of Mooseburger camp to anyone interested in clowning.

In the end, I killed Burgundy Red. I was interested in face painting, and basically everything connected to makeup, but I loved attending the camp and learning to juggle, spin plates, make props, and make animals out of weightless balls. I was an artist who painted faces like a clown, not an artist who clowns painted faces.

What I did was personality, and only when it was me, I was tired of spending time when it was a weightless ball. I was allergic to all the products - in the beginning, I had the opportunity to finish using mascara, then powder, then cilia. What a pain for the hand-to-hand task to swing the ball... For example, it was time to actually finish with the data.

Therefore, I realized that I handled the whole props and gags, part of the costume, and knocked out the useless ball.

I respect clowns. It's not easy to be a good clown, and you need a great deal and practice. What I am saying is not a man wearing a rainbow wig wearing a bozo overall to use the ball at the car show, but a trained clown that is a professional, a professional who enjoys it at all levels. That's it.

Not all clowns are made in the same way. If you want to hire a clown, make sure that he is a real clown and does not transform into a clown.

Cats

For example, I'm worried.

I asked the theater for years, years, and years. "When do you put a cat?" I asked the theater for years and years, but it was basically difficult to realize in an amateur theater.

I watched the Cats Tour twice in Vancouver in the mi d-80's! I remember the ticket of $ 84. But we liked it.

This show will be performed in February 2013 at a general performance of the Grand Play Live Theater / Grand Play League College.

If the director didn't ask me, the floor might have been full of blood.

Thursday, in the evening, the arena announced the anniversary of the 50th 2012-2013 season, and as part of the demonstration, he played the cat sandlapips song "Memory" ... and I hairstyle to her. I made makeup. If you intend to sing this song, there was an announcement from the production that you could become a grazabella!

I haven't read the notes of the production yet, but I'm quite worried about the character's person. The prepared queue does not consider whether the license has a characteristic, and as a result, I don't intend to make a makeup from my intention, but I think I should do a great arrangement!

This season is an absolute treasure of music and comedy. In principle, there is one show in the season I believe in listening ... this list has four or five! However, some of them are impossible due to the incident, but I believe that I will go in a good spring.

Cinco de Mayo

Yesterday was a fierce day. I ordered three works. In the afternoon, it was exhibited in a marching of painful multiple sclerosis. Then I went to Aquarach and drew Caldea and managers for the victory of Shinko de Mayo.

I didn't draw many things with the theme of Mexico, but let me introduce some cases:

Most women chose beauty and shine.

And they wanted to put their paint in the frame.

All the children chose the tribal pattern:

I spent two hours there, and then returned home at my meeting to pull the dead pirate!

Some fun

Today, I showed myself for Faceboo k-Group's topics entitled "Theme of the Week" I consumed. The current content is "the furniture of the grass from the world village" ... for some reason, right? lol

This is what I devised.

President Adirondak, President of Westport, New York.

Westport, New York, keeps in the world's most famous settlement list, but apparently this way of sitting!

I got the benefits of DFX Neon Rainbow, Tagpal Black, and Wolf White. But now my eyes are quite painful and sensitive skin.

It is quietly becoming sensitive to cosmetics. I have never used cosmetics every day, but because it is a clown, I happen to be a shadow, powder, eyelash fee ... As a result, I stopped clown.

But until recently, I had the opportunity to do face painting without having to do special work. I don't like DFX, for example, how to dry the skin quite a bit. However, I just dyed my personality, took a picture, pulled away ... I wasn't waiting, it would be this affection in a short time of time.

As usual, I think I will apply the database of Kryolan, Snazaroo and Grimas. It's rudimentary, but I wanted to get the effect of neon ...

Update: We have won this week's topic!

Business Tips for Face Painters, Body Artists and Make-Up Artists #4 – Target Markets

April 1 means that the fourth time of my electricity "Family Painting Business" has arrived. Of course, if you want to get all the information of my book, it is easy at this time.

The "Painting Business with Face" published in September 2009 is currently in the final stage of the additional book "Painting Technology with Face", and will be released later this year. is.

It is very basic to be considered the customer you want and want to focus on your own advertising and marketing. If you target a specific type of buyers, you can effectively apply the existing marketing bubble and get results.

The following is an excerpt of four leaders from the book "Business Talking with Face".

Face Painting Proposal Marketing

What is your motivation market?

Most of us, which are particular about Face to Face, limit marketing focus to specific areas. A motivated bazaar is a group that you want to be interested in work. To reach this desired group, "We concentrate on advertising activities to them, and as a result they are regarded as our 'target market'."

You can limit your motivated market in all possible ways. It may be a physical country with a radius of 50 miles or less from your home, it may be the image of a specific event such as a birthday party or festival, and it may be a specific service. be. It is up to you how to make a personal and ambitious market.

Here, let's introduce the space and events that attract attention for Face Painting:

hospital
Elderly facilities, nursing homes
nursery school

This is what I actually imagined. There are many other types of space and events that I couldn't think of, so don't think this is a comprehensive list.

Whatever you choose as an exciting market, you need to plan how to approach the people who make up this group. At this time, you need to do research and become creative in marketing.

For you, you must take into account where they live, where they are working, what they are actually reading, and what marketing and advertising methods are convenient for them. For you, you need to tell those who can hire / hire your news and information. For example, what kind of ads can reach your ambitious market? To do so, study is needed, and the development of materials and advertisements can be extended. Most things can be dealt with without any special expenses, but you may need to prepare for workouts to attract the desired buyers, which depends on your goals.

For example, if you want to grasp a big event, such as fair, rodeo, and festivals, you need to think about who will tell you and how to arrange them.

The first step is to create an event that you want to confuse and the list of its organizers. There are several ways to do this: in the announcement of printed publications and regional publications, seeing events that match your ambitious market, writing down the space, sponsoring groups, contacts, etc.; In the community list, find out about future events; find events and lists of district institutions, such as fair areas and arenas; for example, check out reference books in district groups, everyday events and planning committees It is often shown; for example, if you look at reference books of district groups, everyday events and planning committees are often described. Churches and secondary education institutions often hold fair and events to collect funds. After creating an event list, use a yellow page or online directory to enter all information that may not be on the list.

If you make a list of people who are likely to buy in the ambitious areas you choose, you need to think about how to contact them. This has a certain number of ways, from cool call to direct email. First, let's look at a certain number:

1. How can I do it? < SPAN> For you, you must take into account where they live, where they are, what they are actually reading, and what marketing and advertising methods are convenient for them.

For example, if you want to grasp a big event, such as fair, rodeo, and festivals, you need to think about who will tell you and how to arrange them.

1. How do you do it?

I like to keep my own expenses low, but am prepared to spend a certain required amount each year on high-quality promotional materials, for example, beautifully written full-color leaflets and cards, business cards, etc. I also consider postage to be a normal cost for commercials.

2. What is your comfort level?

Personally, I don't like cool signals, and for charities and my own business, by phone or in person, it doesn't make sense. I don't like this and I don't do it! But almost everyone is not against this and there is a chance to make it quite well. On a technical level, cool signals are considered sales, not marketing, but when you do one job, you do it all.

3. How much time should I spend?

I like to complete big advertising plans at the same time, and as a result, I like to email in a day or evening.

4. What are the contact details?

For example, the name of a real person or a rudimentary mailbox?
Often, the only easy contact is the name of the association and the mailbox. Committee members change from year to year, so the contact name is often irrelevant. Collect as much information as possible, but do not allow the accessibility of names to take you out of the mailing materials.
5. Are there any marketing media that most of your aspiring market supporters will notice?
For example, a poll of the district council?
There is no district advertising method that would allow me to exclude all groups from my list, and as a result, I decided not to spend money on district-level advertising. In some areas, there is a magazine for guards with all the possibilities that are needed for birthday fairs, for example.
So I decided to do a direct mail campaign with a message, a leaflet, and a few business cards to all the groups on my list for which I have mailing information. The first year I sent messages to 37 organizations and companies, and received 11 requests and 7 reservations (one of which was a reservation for some days). The second year I sent 30 and received 11 reservations. I add a certain amount of new names to the list and eliminate those that are unproductive for the list. A few years later, I went back to introducing postcards in return for messages, but this was at least less effective.
In fact, remember that the market you are motivated by can change from year to year, so if things aren't going well or you decide you want to change something, you shouldn't hold onto anything.
There are many techniques for contacting an ambitious market. You can use them all, or you can use them in combination. Everything depends on time and money, how much budget you want to spend on:
Direct mail to the person in charge
Direct mail with a normal letter (no appeal)
Normal postcard only
Cold signal over the phone
Direct mail for sel f-introduction and leaflet
Next telephone recruitment direct mail

Advertisements will be issued to local publications and newsletters in such a chamber, tourism council, volunteer supply, rotary clubs, and school districts.

Yellow page, other regional directory, charity and others.

Giving credit where credit is due, or, oh brother she’s on a rant again.

Use an offer to deliver unacceptable communications by mail by mail.

Notice/ poster on the shop, club, mall bulletin board.

Take an appointment with other makeup artists.

With a little research, a little effort, and a little expense for postage and promotional materials, you can connect with a motivated market.

The extent of the riot depends on the local financial status, the number of competitors, and the importance, but it is worth working to expand your business and increase your brand awareness.

Let's start with the fact that I express my personal thoughts, emotions, and personal skills. This may be entertained, frustrated, you may think that you should be calm, or seek support.

As a stylist, as a designer for face and body painting (and designers, craftsmen, chef ... etc.), Someone who is probably not doing more at a time in history. I admit that nothing is. In other words. For example, there are a lot of techniques to draw tigers.

But when I try to start over, that is, when I actually think, think, intend, research, develop, and breathe life, I feel it is my own. Because this is my creative, my idea ... "

Painting, photography, literature, cloud patterns, book cover, Aloha T-shirt, manga ... Anything is fine. By impulsive ideas, sketching it, and sometimes wel l-shaped, you can create something that you are really proud of.

There are many ideas that do not work. Like many artists. They are canvas that are painted by other things, sketches that become paper waste, and are deleted because nobody can see them.

But I like to share what I get ... Applications for competitions and exhibitions, posted on websites, blogs, Facebooks, and share with friends. Look, my work! Isn't that amazing?

I don't believe in someone who says "I don't feel like that" when I do something good, and I don't like to ask for a complaint by criticizing my work. Of course, we are our worst critics. Share it with others!

Well ... what I want to say is enough.

I'm tired of the ideas and designs created and announced by other artists. Instead that you are using a design that is not your own concept, you will create a video to introduce how to make the design to the masses on YouTube, and accept the praise and praise of how wonderful the design is!

This has been going on for years. People who do this are often caught. This is different from creating your own version using the design in the book. -This is what I and my colleagues usually have. We all have used others' works. However, I try to make my own design somehow.

Something new and something old

And if we publish our design in a book or the Internet as a ste p-b y-step manual, of course, those designs can be copied to anyone.

This is not illegal. This is not due to copyright failure, but the fact that he really pulled his design for his personal photos. But ... this is similar to theft. If you are considered a creator of a specific original design, or if it may be realized, or not, you have actually been inspired.

And why are all of these people creating your tube video overall? Why do I have to show everyone how they actually create what they want, and they have to hire them? And if they decide to take my design and show them how to reproduce it ... What for? Are they trying to use me and other designers to recognize their originality and skills to the public? What do they have from there?

No designer gets angry and harassed by this.

Many pictures found on the website are considered to be the page of the photo contest of Snazarou USA. Similarly, all new people who have decided to draw their faces in recent years have no opinion about the yellow design of this design, but they use these ideas without specifying their own version. There are no doubts.

Please see. There are thousands of designs that are beautiful, unique and well made. All of them can be used if they have the ability to apply as inspiration. Don't be ashamed of describing them when you work. Respect a unique designer and admit that you have found that idea in a real place.
Furthermore, if you put your personal personal profile on the outlet to grow. This is a rudimentary thing. And this will arrange me normally ... don't get angry?
Last week, I was the first germanicure to be born! This is a big event in my life. The nail polish was painted only once in the 1988 cruise, but my nails were rather short, so basically I had the opportunity to solve almost everything.
My colleagues were only doing their own nails. The nails are bent, loose, cracked, and broken by a little shock. Recently, the side broke and was exploring the cause. Her nail polish looked very cool.

Last Tuesday, I decided to go to her and then have dinner.

I worked hard at home for two days on the weekend, but my nails did not break! The only dissatisfaction is to get used to lifting your luggage. difficult! And they are really stupid, for example, they are really perfect. But I hope to solve them again.

So it's fresh.

Well, about old ones.

In several groups/ chat/ forums I participated, people shared their first photos in human pictures ... I went to search for themselves. In the process, I chose all my own albums in makeup and found some other things.

I was making a parody movie for Monkeys Planet. The mak e-up photo of the chimpanzee, which is also used for my business card, was a test makeup for this work. I found my own photos and thought this was something I should show to everyone. Real set! By the way, it's pretty lonely as it is ... Expectations and expectations ... and expect ...

It was a monkey-carbon film space held in a local kit in Vancouver, not far from the beach.

For example, I couldn't find a photo with a drawing face I found, but this sketch was the first to arrange with the support of Crylan Aqua Color. For example, at the technical level, this is a 1st sketch of my face, and there is a fact that it actually lifted a simple makeup. Cattle design was copied from Grimas's "Make-Up for Experts and Hobbies". This book is one of the two books I bought two rudimentary makeup. The book is Cyan Ellis Thomas's "Creation of the Face". From these two data, I found everything I actually knew about how to draw a face. And this was enough until a certain number of training was taken by a real artist in 2003!

In fact, for example, not everything. In the last 15 years, I have grown more than anyone else. Still, I couldn't say "I signed."

The following are two excerpts from my electrical book "Business on Builtting". In 2012, I place a transit of a month in everyone's direction. Of course, if you want to get all the information written in my book, it is easy at this time, but you can allow ways to arrange it here.

The book "Pearing's Pearing Business with Face" was published in September 2009, and now we trust this year and work on the attached book "Powder Art" to work on the graduation steps. 。

Marketing is the most important part of business success. In general, I tried to concentrate on advertising in the off season in January and September, and I did not miss the opportunity to use the probability. In my book, I will introduce in detail what I actually do to give listing ads and what tools I use.

The following is an excerpt from four leaders, "I do business with my face."

Marketing is a process that attracts the attention of those who are likely to be the buyer in your face painting proposal.

Because marketing is a constant process that connects your proposal research, advertising, resale, and distribution. More simply, marketing links everything to attract buyers to offer. What you do to achieve this goal depends on the times and your interests.

Advertising for your business painting-creating intentions is part of the business plan (again, this text is a constant process!) This is relatively right I concentrate on the bottom with confidence to maintain:

Product and/ or offer

Promotion

distribution

price

What advertisemen t-intent's goal is to receive and store satisfactory buyers. No matter how ordinary it is, the creation and implementation of advertising intentions will definitely help focus on a clear goal and increase the potential of splash.

Chapter 3 briefly mentioned advertising projects as part of the business plan. In this chapter, for example, it is important for a new business splash, and as I understand, we talk about the main advertising ideas that are highly related to face designers. I will also talk about tools and methods that I think will succeed immediately.

Advertising project

Find your own answers to your questions and time to record all kinds of idea s-this is not a story, the rudimentary of the list to give everything in the form of the point that acts on your heart. I place a template that you can apply to execute this exercise, which is at the end of the leader. And while creating your own articles, you can summarize them and connect them to your personal business plan.

Your product is a proposal for a person's picture (or any other kind of offer or product you have decided to provide). For you, you need to modify the appropriate major elements: what is your service characteristics? Explain your proposal. How is the proposal of competitors different? What are your original sales points? In other words, what are you preparing for your proposal with other remarkable proposals and the best proposals? What benefits do your proposal provide customers? What kind of news do you want to tell your prospects about your proposal?

How do you intend to explain your prospects about your painting proposal? For you, you need to admit someone who is considered to be your motivation after you decide who is the most likely buye r-I will tell you in detail. Promote your suggestions and options available in your area, and create a list of all the ideas you need to advertise. This is all: business cards, flyers, flyers, banners, and e-mail, site, yellow page, advertising, coupon, presentation, object distribution, electricity campaign, arrangement in catalogs, and printing publishing, printing publishing Announcements with things, etc.

Just for fun

In our commerce, distribution is basically to come to the buyer and provide our own offer. You can clarify transportation methods, important equipment, shields and furniture. Is there a cost related to delivery to customers? In this field, we are still considering issuing and paying invoices for the proposal provided. What situations and what kind of payment methods are available? Do you have a loan? Is there a warranty or defect guarantee? Is there a defense system with customers? Find your own answers to your questions and time to record all kinds of idea s-this is not a story, the rudimentary of the list to give everything in the form of the point that acts on your heart. I place a template that you can apply to execute this exercise, which is at the end of the leader. And while creating your own articles, you can summarize them and connect them to your personal business plan.

We have discussed the creation of value in detail in chapter 2, "Questions about money". You can plan all your costs, but to do so you need to be competitive and gain a meaningful advantage. Buyers will not spend more than necessary, and if you set your costs too high for the market, you will surrender to your rivals. Calculate your costs using the Excel spreadsheet introduced in chapter 2 and introduce fair and meaningful costs into your proposal.

Look at these four points and connect them to your personal business plan, or if you decide not to make a business plan, arrange them as you intend to advertise.

Take all the points that you consider relevant, place them in values, learn the prices of those points that you want to apply to set up a joint bubble, outline a schedule of actions and mark them as you complete them.

All this record will definitely help you not to get lost and follow the triumph of your intentions.

In the other parts of these leaders, we will see the characteristics of the sign industry marketing in its face, based on my experiments, the fact that I think it is more successful. The market has all the chances to be very different, as a result of the fact that it has worked very well with me, it is not essential in your area, or I would consider it basically redundant, has the ability to become your most successful tool! As a result, do not be afraid to try something to understand if this is effective for you.

Creating a brand or collective style

When you start promoting yourself in the market, you are creating a brand. You are creating a person, a company, a proposition, a person who is well known to people, who is valuable, worth paying money for and who is ready to spread your name to their own friends and family.

When you create yourself and a personal business, creating a brand is something that you probably do not design. But after you have created a certain number of business cards, you have already started this process.

We are in a visual industry and, in fact, what we do is represented by the public. Whether it is a baby rising from a chair with a painted face, a photo of our business in a portfolio, our clothes and the food of the proletariat, all these are visual things. For example, don't you think that our marketing should also be visual?

Think about it. What are you selling? Your own artistic phrases. What's the best way to give people an idea of what you do? Show them.

For many beginners, the cost of hig h-quality marketing materials may not be very paid, but ... Do you afford to miss the job you bring in the best marketing materials?

Not only those who have just started working in this industry, but also those who have been working for a long time, look at their marketing materials. Please put it on the table. Business cards, flyers, pamphlets, signs, displays, forms, posters, resumes, portfolios, commercial offers, and websites. Is there a "appearance" that can be distinguished from other artists' works? In other words, do your materials have a look one after another that you can see at a glance that it's your material? Do you have a slogan or phrase that is displayed in all materials and reminiscent of you? Do you use the same font for all printed matter? Do you use paper of the same color? Do you use it for all printed materials and have one image of logo and photos reminiscent of your company? For example, is there a common design element such as a yellow font on a black background? This may seem trivial, but in this industry, like other industries, the image is important and may be more important. Spending time on the beginning of the journey can make a big change in the future. This is not difficult, but it is necessary to consider what kind of image you want to create, and if you decide to expand your business in the future, it is enough for all businesses.

Spend some time to brainstorming ideas ... Where do you want to develop your business? Is your market just painting on the face, just painting the body, or both? Do you also provide other makeup services? Do you also work on other entertainment such as balloons, hair cuts, nails, etc.? Is there a plan to expand the range of services in the future, or is there a possibility? < SPAN> For many beginners, the cost of highly complete marketing materials may not be very paid, but ...

Before making the first business card, everyone should think about their business image. I know that it is a business card that only tells the phone number. However, this is an advertisement that people can use freely, potentially send it to other people, creating your business image.

Do you have a title that tells people what your company does? Does your title include good shading? You need to decide if you want to provide your own company title, and if so, find out if you can get it back or copyright it if you decide to go down this road. Conduct research to make sure you are not using a title that is already in use, especially in your area. You can even apply for a name (I did). It's all up to you. But once you start creating a brand and reputation associated with this naming, you can stick with it for a long time.

Take a certain number of not bad photos of the same, in fact, what you are doing is not really bad photography. A skilled photographer is not necessary for you, but when you take photos, you need to take care. (Photos with a black background) make sure they are actually focused with different, good images. If you love different things, have example photos of all of them. Then you need to learn them all... 7 and mention the support of friends, colleagues and fellow artists. Cut out a photo that you think really describes your essence and what you and your company love. If you love almost everything, place a huge copy depicting everything or simulate a collage. In fact, whatever you decide to put, be sure to choose such a special image that you will be happy with for a long time, and will not reconstruct your materials so often. Or you can choose a graphic logo to identify your brand or outfit. This conclusion will remain with you. But choose something that can exist together, so you don't have to replace it every year.

Once you decide which visual type to apply to your material, you need to prepare these materials. When I was running, I printed my business card on my computer using a business card photo paper sold at a stationery store. It seemed that it didn't cost the most than pressing a color business card. However, considering the price of ink, toner, and special paper, it was not. I distribute sweet s-like postcards, but I needed to reprint almost every week, and I was in a position because of the toner. As a result, I changed to a print shop with ful l-color business cards. On one side of the business card is a ful l-color printing press, and the other side is a dark color printing press. Thanks to the print artist, my design was definitely completed. This design has been converted to other advertising materials such as postcards and leaflet, and is also used for brand forms and marketing materials.

After printing a business card, you have started a branding process. At this stage, you are recognized by this type and by your business qualities and talents. These are all linked. However, the printed fabric is actually noticed and memorized by many people. If you apply a visual image, you can tell everyone who sees the business card that you are a designer, a specialist, and a wonderful job. You create a personal brand in the market, distinguish yourself among others, and in fact, you are more memorable, so you need more needs in the market, and in fact. That leads to an increase in the number of commercial work and happiness. Therefore, when people listen to your name or see your business card, you want to actually make a help to actually do or decide, and pay a dividend to you for a long time. It will be.

Spide r-Man has been an essential repertoire for all artists to attract people for a long time. Is there a person who has been drawing at least for a long time and has a chance to admit that he has never drawn a Spide r-Man? This is the right to pass through your family to claim a "professional"! I try not to use licensed characters in my advertising materials, but if I'm asked, I draw them, and I know how to draw them. Since I get my face washed in paint and I don't cry on my face, I'm not too worried about the Disney police -- although I don't draw Disney characters much! But now that Disney owns Marvel, including Spider-Man, that might all change. I've drawn cartoons for competitive purposes.... [Whisper] Including Disney. Here's my drawing "Lady and the Tramp" (Disney), which won the Fantasy Face World Championship in Belgium in 2006: Here are some drawings I did for the photo contest at the 2006 UK Face Panting Convention:

You have to keep the line moving! I also have to admit that some theatrical sketches are based on the Disney version. [If a costume designer makes a blue bear, what else can they do? I avoid making sports logos. It's too tricky and time-consuming. Have you ever seen the Edmonton Oilers logo?
