Tips For The Every Day Hand Made Jewelry Entrepreneur
Forget about inspiration
Ego says: ?I?m an artist, I can?t work if I?m uninspired??well, and Pablo Picasso quotes inspiration exists, but it has to find you working. Who do you believe? I chose to believe Master Pablo, of course. Inspired or not inspired, work everyday. I?m sure there are a lot of ?office issues? like taking better pictures of your items, making tags or whatever that you have pending, as we all have, that you can make it on your uninspired time. My husband is an electrician company director and he goes to work everyday, whether if he?s inspired or not! Why should I have that privilege?
You can make your own ways to sell and promote your work
Ego says ?I?m an artist, I can?t deal with sales and publicity. That?s not what an artist is supposed to be.? Something I really hear a lot. I truly believe that, as artists, we are even more able to sell ourselves than other professionals because creativity is the real key to publicity success. The true instinct to find beauty is inside every true artist. Though I think it is a must to read a good quantity of marketing materials,articles, we have an ability to create that is a natural advantage. Again, change your point of view about yourself and create new ways to market your work.
Don?t take critiques personally
Ego says ?Oh, that person I don?t know at all thinks my jewelry is awful? I am a complete failure!? Well, you don?t like everything, so don?t expect your jewelry to be appreciated by everyone. What a person says about your work may be influenced by many things that do not have to do with your work at all. Be always ready to follow positive advice ASAP,immediately, but don?t let other people?s reactions reflect on your self image. Remember, maybe that person is also talking through her/his little angry child!
Epilogue
Learning the industry takes time and effort. There is no fast success and if there is, it will pass soon leaving you wondering what you did wrong? and making you learn another good lesson ? which should always be seen as a valuable thing. I am personally guilty and all crimes said above and in many, many more that have turned into a deeper knowledge of myself, my work as an artist and the world around me. I am very proud of all my mistakes, in fact!
We all are on an endless ride of personal growth, with no finish line. There is always someone smarter than us and someone that may need our advice as well. I really hope this article helps you in your way to reach complete success; knowing that you?ve found your way is one of the best feelings a person can have? and you deserve to have it too.
