that's all for now. i've been wanting to share this for awhile, but time gets away. so i hope some of you are able to enjoy any of these places.
come visit me at www.caronm.com to view some of my travels in print.
Setup day for the national stationary show was gruesome. it was soooo much more work than i thought it should have been. and after talking to some people i have some idea of how to make it simpler. for one thing i found out that there is drop off place in the rear of the javits center AND all my stuff will be in one place. so already that;s better for the next time. also have the side walls built in a color and then adding the backdrop will be easier as well.
it's all a learning experience and hopefully i will get some orders after all this. unfortunately i didn't get any upfront...but when i get my head back on straight, i will be a bit more focussed.
simplify...my next attempt.
come visit www.caronm.com and see my new pricelist which includes canvas prints and my new wholesale pricelist.
well i'm up late, thinking about the stationary show at the javiatts center this coming weekend and boy, it's near.
i think , no i'm sure i will be okay. just want positive energy around me. i will be at booth 954, if you or anyone interested would like to stop be and say hi. i'm sure by turesday, i will be tired. the first for anyone will be exhausting.
so i need need rest now but wanted to check in before checking out. i need to get better at this, but there are so many details to attend to....

well i decided to enter the national stationary show. this is a big step for me. i'm hoping this will really bring some recognition to my photography and help with sales, ergo move my cards into a retail environment.
i'm really going to focus on selling the concept of showing my prints large with the idea of selling them for architectural environments, like showroom, apartment staging situations, hotel or condiminium lobbies or rooms. you name it i will figure out how to do it.
all i need are introductions and interest. so all ideas are interesting to me. this is just the beginning. i'm very excited. just to see my prints large is awesome.
so anyone who wants to visit, come see me 20 may-23may. you are always wwelcome to visit my website www.caronm.com
