Lately I've been working more on the business side of art and at times it's a bit overwhelming. I am so way behind on all my shops and behind on promoting my work. In the beginning when I started my business, I spent 50% of my work time doing this, but after having my daughter, I put my business on the back burner. I think it sorta killed my business. So I will have to start at the bottom again. I'm going to be re-pricing my originals again to fit this bad economy. I'm reducing some even more than what I did a few weeks ago, but the ones I really love they are going back to my normal prices. I haven't had a chance to do it yet. I re-opened my artfire shop as well. I'm slowly adding stuff and I still have a lot of work to do on zazzle. There is a lot of business changes coming for me in the new year.
I got to thinking about how I use my time and I want to make changes in my life to use my work time more efficiently. I've come up with a new schedule for the new year. I will actually starting it now, but I'm not going to be working on much art, until the new year starts. I want to spend the next three weeks getting caught up on my shops.
When the new year starts out, I probably will be doing a lot of aceo's or 5"x7" in the beginning to sell on ebay. This is easy money for me and I need the money to buy unique products to put my art on. I know that it will take a lot of time and hrs, before I can start getting a steady flow of money, but I am motivated and determined to do it.
