5 Stars just what I wanted
I am building a successful business, the book was a confirmation for me in many ways but then again I also learned some new things and got some good reminders of what I should be doing but havn’t been. The best book I have purchased. If the author were to read this, I would certainly want to thank her.
5 Stars awsome!
This book was really great. Gave me lots of ideas and inspired me to really get my buisness going:) I am so glad that I bought this book!
5 Stars Very helpful
This is a great book full of handy information for someone starting a small decorative mural painting business. I recommend it highly. Easy to read and full of good information.
5 Stars Best out there
If you are looking for a “how to” book on performing various mural and faux techniques this is not the book for you. This book will mainly concentrate on more of the legal and business side. After reading this book you will feel and think “Wow I can really make a living off this”. I would highly recommend it for anyone considering opening a business or service in this area.
4 Stars Mural Painting Business
The book provided a down to earth explanation of the process for starting a mural business.
This extended from the practical aspect of actually doing the artwork to the potential pitfalls of running a business, including overload (problems with subbing work out), dealing with customers, taxation and all the other things someone who is good at artwork may forget to consider.
Well worth the read.
