BEAUTY MAKE UP

Breaking into the world of makeup artistry is not easy.  Many people go to school to become a makeup artist and some people are self taught.  Either way the competion is stiff.  So how do you get your name out there and get jobs?   Networking (through meet up groups, modelmayhem, facebook, etc.) is great and once you get some work and prove yourself more jobs will come but another great way is to market yourself using the internet.  I have seen it work for my husband.  He has great talent but he also has a great marketing tool, the intenet.  If you don’t have the money to create a web site (you know the saying, it takes money to make money), you can still market yourself on free web listing to get your name out there.  Most of these sites will allow you to create a profile, list some pictures and create coupons for discounts.  You can always upgrade to a more extensive listing for a fee.  That is up to you.  Some of the listing I recommend are:  showmelocal.com, merchantcircle.com, insiderpages.com and local.com.  Set yourself up on all of the sites and get your name out there, keep tweaking the sites and you will see results.

Good luck!
