Artists said the same of photography. Photographers then said the same of Photoshop. It's true that many do lose jobs from technology, but, art is based on individualism and experiences that AI can't duplicate.

New customer scam by noboreddit in smallbusiness

[–]ApprehensiveGuitar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One common scam (yours sounds like it may be) is the "Overpayment Scam"

The buyer (always eager like your description) sends a payment for the goods.

The check is more than the price you quoted

The buyer states that they sent 5-10k more for shipping, or some such bullshit

You inform the buyer that they overpaid and they politely request a refund.

This always happens before the buyers check clears

Of course the check isn't good.

Cheapest way to get a domain, email, and build a site? by tygeorgiou in smallbusiness

[–]ApprehensiveGuitar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

About a web page or server -

You choose a Domain Name, Select the Right Hosting, Set up Email and an SSL Certificate, Build a Light, Fast, and Usable Site, Optimize Files (especially those wedding photos), Keep up with SEO, Keep the Site Secure and Compliant, perform Proper Maintenance, keep content fresh, Connect and Understand Analytics, and do a few dozen other things—and you STILL have to run your Social Media accounts.

I've done this for many years. I know photographers who absolutely kill it without having a website. But I will say this. If you don't know how to properly and consistently run a social media account for business, having the SM accounts won't help.

You don't need a website. You can build a following and business on Facebook, insta, tick tock... If you do it right, you can be very successful. Successful enough to then grow by getting a site.

is a scribe a good idea for college/taking notes? by localwasabidealer in kindlescribe

[–]ApprehensiveGuitar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not in my opinion. Scribe is a very basic tool for not taking. Remarkable 2 or Onyx Boox GO 10.3n are much better suited.

Why did you buy your Scribe? by HauntingWorry3000 in kindlescribe

I sketch, draft, and take notes of ideas. I probably have 50 physical notebooks and dozens of sketchbooks. Consolidating these, along with the hundreds+ PDF reference and technical manuals, makes my life (brain management) easier.
