How to built your Mural Business

Build Your Mural Business On Best Practices

Every industry has best practices and a code of ethics, so right from the start, use those as your guiding principles. Make sure every employee understands what the ethical situations are, why it's important to abide by these practices, and what to do if faced with a difficult situation. You'll rarely be led wrong doing the right thing.

Act Quickly On Customer Complaints

If a customer comes to you with a concern, whether it's a minor question or a fairly serious problem, make the time to talk to them directly and find out what happened. Listen carefully, take notes and discuss with them what you can do to rectify the problem. Often the simple act of listening and explaining your position, and then trying to make things right, will impress the customer even if they're ultimately unsatisfied.

Mural Artists, "How to Give (and Receive) Positive Criticism"

Criticism hurts for most, but given right, it can inspire both the critic and the critiqued. Here are five tips to make your critique a positive experience.

There is nothing pleasant about criticism. Even the best intentioned critique still stings. People like to be right, correct, and accomplished, it hurts when some one finds faults in your work, no matter how nice your critic tries to be. Still, those who strive to improve, value direct feedback no matter how painful. And as long as the critic is not being MALICIOUS, he or she can actually build a higher level of trust by providing constructive criticism carefully and empathetically.

So whether you are reviewing  a fellow artist or friends art work, here are five tips for giving criticism in a way it will be appreciated and well received. 

1. Have Clear Objectives

2. Create a Neutral Environment

3. Use Fewer Words With More Meaning

4.  Align the Criticism With the Subject's Goal
5. Encourage Self - Critique
 

Myth... Artists are born or made?

Myth: Artists are born, not made.

Fact: A passion for art has to be there, but all other skills are acquired. No one is born knowing how to paint a Mural.

The first step to becoming an artist is to want to be an artist. Sounds too simple, doesn’t it? After all, artists are born, not made….right? You either have talent or you don’t.

Wrong! No one is born knowing how to Draw, or how to Paint,, or how to Trompe L'oeil or to create art, anymore than anyone is born knowing how to play the violin or fly a plane. These are all skills. They can be taught, they can be learned. Some people may find the process of acquiring those skills to be exhilarating and enjoyable, others may find the process boring. The people who find the process exhilarating may pick up the skill quickly and easily. Or they may not.
So ask yourself, do I view my artistic work as a job or as an enjoyable creative career ?
With your sincere answer you will know, if you were actually born to be an artist.

A successful Mural Artist is one that is willing to really put his clients needs in the driver seat

I see the biggest struggle a lot of Artist have is they put their needs, wants and desires for their business ahead of their clients

Versus when you put your clients first, and you’re there to really serve them, all of a sudden you let them lead the business to a greater success

The pointing out the joy that a Mural Artist gets out of helping and working with people is number one.

Which is putting their needs first instead of yours, and looking to really see what is out there as a need for them, and how can I help them get that need met, like new Faux Finish Designs and the latest look in Mural applications

An Artist never should rest on it’s laurels, he or she must be a diligent researcher and re inventor of art creations and designs.

The greatest reward of an Mural Artist is a very pleased customer!
