Do you know who wants you?

One of the most impor­tant basics of suc­ceed­ing in the mar­ket place is know­ing who wants what you have to offer. Those peo­ple who want what you have are key to your suc­cess and know­ing who they are, where they are, and how they live are extremely impor­tant. With­out that knowl­edge you are lit­er­ally gam­bling away your suc­cess on the off chance that one of them
may show up and want your work.

Today I ran across this post on the Michele PW blog The les­son here is par­tic­u­larly impor­tant for this sumer’s show sea­son and food for thought as you develop ways of get­ting paid what you are worth  for what you love to do!

Check it out and keep the les­son present in your mind as you meet poten­tial patrons through­out the sum­mer. Learn how to spot those who really GET you and your work. These are the folks who will buy your paint­ing and likely many more after that.
