the seller’s retreat.
Remember when I posted about attending The ART Weekend last year? Nicole Hill Gerulat, one of my favorite photographers, is the brains behind such gatherings of different art and techie geniuses. Together, they hold classes that range from Photoshop to Letterpress to Photography and Illustrator (just to name a few, of course!) in various cities. Earlier this year Nicole and the gang also launched their online courses so that you can learn even if they don’t tour to your hood. Obviously, I am slightly envious of those who will be traveling with her to France this July for a photo retreat {who wants to take me along?}. Here in San Francisco this weekend? Sign up for really exciting lessons at The Seller’s Retreat.
If you are available on Friday and Saturday {May 21 – 22}, take advantage of this opportunity to attend a 2-day event that will take you through the entire process of selling and marketing your product online. Whether you are ready to dive in to the world of selling your wares or want to learn how to boost your present business with better marketing, this is perfect for you! Nicole, along with Alma and Mike Loveland, will show you how to take professional product shots, teach you how to professionally retouch your photos, take you through creating your own brand graphics and packaging, and will even guide you in setting up your shop and marketing yourself with social media. Space is limited to ensure face time with your instructors and no experience is necessary. Trust me, it will be so worth it. Seriously, check out what classes they’ll be offering. I am trying to see if I can head on over there.
Above are beautiful still + life work by Nicole.
And some of Alma and Mike‘s work.
oh, the things you can learn from this team!
