my Letter to Gary of GaryColes.Net

I was just this morning sent a request for information on how I market self and this is my complete and honest answer that I responded with - I am posting it here in the hopes that it might be of some help to others who may wish to gain some knowledge from my knowledge and experience as well as from my approach to these matters in a long term scheme of things: Hi Gary - I hope that you did not ask me this question before and not get an answer - but here goes - my main business so far has been photographing - I have been photographing for over 55 years now - I have been in the photographic assignment business since 1976 In 1992 I finally came up with my "Doubling Project" and have been working with this system of marketing first my photographic assignment business - and now my art business utilizing this program mainly: The Doubling Project: http://575488trillion.com/files/38880100.pdf and a video of me talking about the "Doubling Project" at a main location where I hand out my cards: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMqlMQZldxo and this is one of my posts on my latest revelation as to how the two business will be working hand in hand to enhance each other: http://bebirianartthoughts.blogspot.com/2013/02/is-this-word-of-mouth.html but basically I must admit that any other marketing that I have been doing on the Internet as well as my cards for my art which I am utilizing for the "Doubling Project" right now - which is more or less in the experimental stage - are all in the infant stages and not yet with any proven record as is the main "Doubling Project" for which I gave out so far over 3.2 million business cards with this image on it: http://575488trillion.com/image/38904859.jpg In fact with all of the comments that people have given me so far I almost tempted to go back to outing that image and abandon this image that I am using at the present time: http://walterpaulbebirian.imagekind.com/store/ but I have definitely not given it enough time and effort yet to honestly say if ti works or not besides the first image is a tough call since it makes people believe that I am only a photographer and does not offer them the possibility of both photographer and artist - and so I have a future card which I have given out several thousand of so far and which is currently on exhibit on screens throughout the city of New York: http://575488trillion.com/image/41089766_scaled_182x220.jpg this is a current list of screens that the image is on display at throughout Manhattan: https://www.facebook.com/notes/walter-paul-bebirian/current-exhibits-showing-in-manhattan-starting-9152011/10150291636742555 I hope this helps - please let me know if you have any questions - the screens are still in a trial stage as well - Walter ……………………………………………………………………..
