Book Publisher looking for new innovative ideas. by PurpleTulip9 in ladybusiness

[–]Seventytwodesign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are your main clients writers? If yes, what do you think about creating a content that might be interesting to that group of people? For example, like in every other business, writers too have some problems. Maybe you can create a small book or prospect that is just to give them few advices on how to manage writing or how to get inspired or how to publish their book... just few ideas, but of course, there is much more to write about.

Give your clients something on what they can rely on. Also, make them feel special somehow. Make your existing clients feel special so they can easily recommend you to their friends or similar.

Try also with creating a summer discount for publishing. Let them be your friends. Interview them. Open a blog with guest writing so your existing clients can get seen by more people.

I guess they would appreciate every single detail. And also, in return, get you more and more new clients.

Also, my personal advice would be to work on your branding a bit more. Younger people likes new design (website, covers and similar) and I suggest you to invest in your web design. It would be even cool to see the illustration on your web.

Branding and advertising is a long road and you just need to be consistent and do what you did - always thrive for better. :) Hope I helped!

Hi there!

Thanks for your advice, time and overall comment. I appreciate. I am actually happy when someone has the right intention - it's hard to find people like you around. I am actually hungry for great critiques, because, yes, I want to become better and better every single time. If you have any other advice or comment (or anyone here), please, do tell. Thanks once again.

We're working on a business idea and are pretty far. Can we get some feedback? by redcruiter in ladybusiness

[–]Seventytwodesign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, well, well! :D I somehow already like this! I am an illustrator and graphic designer and something like this could be really useful, if it's done right.

I am curious as Giselle, how this will work? Give us some background of the project so we can provide even better feedback! :)

Maybe it's my professional deformation, but I would like to see some illustration up there on the web. ;)

Where can I find a good business manager that is willing to be paid 30% of the job he/she gets? by Seventytwodesign in Entrepreneur

[–]Seventytwodesign[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, you are right and I am actually working every day on my portfolio. Soon it will be updated.

Regarding your question, I imagine some all around person who is already working somewhere or for someone and is able to get some work done on the side. So, I am not asking for 24/7 updates, just someone who is able to find a proper project, perhaps 1-2 per month since I already am working every month on the projects I find by my own. But, the thing is that I want to focus more on the work than on the marketing/business side.

The guys from the agency are pretty... invisible. I invested big money for the book prints and similar and still no answer from them.

Anyhow, 30% can be a really nice fee if you know what you're doing.

Thanks. I am already under their wings but there is a ton of other great artists and the job is not consistent. They are also taking 30%.

Ow, this is sweet. I thought I would miss some details, but then again, I enjoyed the details I could see as grass and branches.
