Today I decided the best thing to do, since I am serious about finding another person to work with me is to put together an ad. I made a list of all the qualities that I wanted in this person who will be the face of my business.
Here is what I came up with:
Needed
Experienced Person in Merchandising, Marketing and Sales
This person would be the public face of my business, negotiate contracts and help implement the marketing strategy, find new leads, and act as an advisor and provide feedback in design directions.

While it is true that I am an artist, The real money to be made is in the conversion of my art into designs on clothing, gift and housewares products. Eventually, I will probably also contract with designers as well.
I am a small business with no start up capital, so everything is on a shoestring. One thing I did learn about hiring a few years ago is a lot of people want a job, but few are willing to research the business. I have a respectable on-line, Internet, presence for my skills, talents and my business, so the people who are going to be working with me will also be able to take the initiative and figure out who I am and what I do. That is one of the most important things to me. Anyone who works with me has to care enough about what I am doing to take the time to do the research.

I might have to update that later but think this is a good start.
Have a great day,
