Progress, yah?

So progress is a good thing, yah?
* I'm having business cards made for my art business, Art by Cherise Larue. (my uncles print shop- Image Pro, located in Cedar City utah. they do an amazing job!!! they also did my wedding announcements). 
* I made flyers with my info on it and three of my drawings featured on it 
* I went around to business around Logan to seeing if they would let me hang it--many said no but a few, ex: Hastings and Stork Landing, let me hang them up. i also put one up on campus and the library has to approve it....they probably won't but here's hoping. 
*Michaels said no but i went to Hobby Lobby and the manager said i couldn't hang up the flyer but i COULD teach classes. ha! I think that's quite funny... They provide the classroom and i choose a date and time to teach a class and i decide how much to charge. I just make a poster to display at the front entrance which they will keep up throughout the week or two before so ppl can sign up. And all i have to do is use Hobby Lobby supplies during the class and mention it a couple times to promote it a little but that's it. I don't have to pay anything and i get to keep all the fees from the students! wahoo! 
So my first class, "Portrait Drawing for beginners" is now scheduled for Wed. July 30th from 10-11 AM!!!

*I also have Google Ads running- four different ones at the moment. They're pay per click so if it ever pops up for you please just type in the URL instead of clicking on it. :) otherwise you'll owe me 15 cents! hahah 

Anyway, any ideas anyone? for advertising?  or...anything?

Oh, as for Mary Kay, i'm not "quitting", as in i'm not selling my product back to the company but will not be Actively selling like I was before. I still have a lot of inventory and will gladly take orders or teach classes etc if requested. :)
