mayalaenEveryone in my industry hates Facebook but we’re all stuck using it.
Tattoo artists hate it, shop owners hate it, business people in this industry hate it, event coordinators in the industry hate it, but the people who get tattoos LOVE Facebook, and 70%-90% of a tattoo artist’s business will come from it.
That means tattoo artists have to be on it a lot, which makes it the easiest place for me to interact with tattoo artists when they’re not in my shop – finding products I should carry, advertising my stuff, commenting on artists’ posts, and making my own posts so artists interact with me more.
But the only people who like Facebook are so far removed from me they’re not the ones buying from me while the rest of us all just hate it and whine about it to each other.
