Rebecca: Wonderful! It’s amazing how many artist bellyache over all that’s available. I guess there is pressure to keep up, but it’s better than not having the tools available.

Haha, too funny… I am just getting my art business going, and went to a gallery the other night to meet a gallery owner I’d communicated with via email. The first thing he asked was if I had an iPhone to show him my work… and I pulled out my phone and showed him my website. I am most grateful to be starting up my business in this day and age. 🙂

Terrific post! Yes we are indeed lucky. What an amazing time to be creating. In the last 15 years I have connected with and made sales to art collectors in Japan, Germany, Switzerland, Australia, Canada, Italy, England, and I am sure I am leaving some country out. I always crab about the custom forms, and the cost of international shipping, but at the end of the day … wow, the internet is really amazing. That type of direct selling could not have happened for me 25 years ago.

Hi Phyllis! You can also check out UPrinting.com if you’ve yet to print your Postcards. Printing cost is way under $100, try http://bit.ly/Vp693e I actually got a coupon code you might want to use – UPLG01 – it expires this week though, on Sunday, Dec 16, but I guess you can ask for a new discount code through their tweeter.

I could not imagine the world without internet. Work is much easier and accessible because it existed. I’m grateful everyday for this! 🙂

Thanksgiving in Canada is long gone, so it is easy to have busied ourselves along, forgetting to be grateful (thanks to the American media up here, we get this great reminder right now!).
I really did appreciate this post – the items listed made me smile. Normally, I think in much bigger, loosey-goosey ideas when it comes to this kind of stuff (grateful for my health, my family, etc…). But yeah, I AM grateful for the internet and all of the other specifics mentioned (going to have to shift my thinking and apply some SMART goal-like thinking!).
So, I am grateful for my new iPhone… I leapt in to the millenium and finally got a cell phone! And I am amazed at how this little device can help me (only had it for 2 weeks). Case in point: today I took a photo of the receipt from the store for my “expenses” file… I have probably already misplaced the receipt, but I know where to find it on my phone!!
Thanks for this reminder to realize all we have to make our businesses the best ever…!
