Some business assistance

[BabylonHoruv]

So, I am a professional tarot card reader, I know I am not the only one on the board.  I do reading on the phone, for a site that I am reasonably happy with, but that charges a price that I feel is higher than I wish to charge.  I recently discovered a way to get paid independently and want to start promoting myself for a lower price directly to Querents. 

I have done this before, in the past, at a different site that I read for, but it has been years and I don't know where the querents hang out.  I was considering Mystic Wicks (A place I know very little of) any other forums that might work for self promotion I'd greatly appreciate being pointed toward.

If any of the other readers do self promotion and would be willing to share some honey pots I'd be greatful.   If not, if folks can tell me forums where the "mystically inclined" are prone to gather I'd love it.   I was considering TCC, but the userbase is tiny, and I doubt they'd want their cards read by a troll.

PS, yes, I do believe in what I do.  I'm good at it and my predictions are fairly accurate.  More importantly, to me, my advice is grounded.  Somebody tells me she is sick, I tell her to go to the doctor.  If you can only morally justify card reading if the reader is intentionally trying to take advantage of the querent, well, to each their own, but that's not how I do it.  If the querent is deluded I am just as deluded and really do believe I am providing a real and valuable service.

Talk to Bella at EB&G.  She may be able to give you some advice.

[Adios]

The best advice has already been posted here.

Art boards... the big ones, like Wetcanvas. It's HARD to advertise on those, because most of them are advertiser-supported and are therefore mercilessly policed by mods for any hint of self-promotion. However, if you post a lot, you can slip it in.

I'm not new, see the "deserved it" next to my name?  This is Babylon Horuv

Oh, and thanks RWHN and Nigel.  Art boards hadn't been a thought I had yet and definitely sound worth exploring.  Less likely to get Querents who want me removing curses that way.

If you change your name, you are new for all intents and purposes.

Whoa I didn't get that, no.

What about if we start a "I just changed my name" thread? People wouldn't even have to give reasons.

Hell I could script it so it'd happen automagically.

Until some ass-bag, me, decided to change my name 20 times in the course of an hour, thus causing the thread to be spammed automatically.
But, um it would still be cool, because I've been wanting to change my name, but since I changed my avatar I've been waiting, because people kinda seem to go whot the fuck is this.

No, I knew it wasn't real obvious.  I actually mentioned it in the "how do you pronounce my name" thread, when I was still Xochipilli but I didn't really expect those that hadn't been following my posts closely to get that it's me.

Dear lord please do not give Mystic Wicks any money.  You will not get anything from them, maybe one reading and that is a big maybe.

Like others have said here, talk to Bella, the site she works with is really good.

Another option is to get yourself aligned with a local metaphysical store.  Get on their list and start building a clientele from that.  Sign up for Psychic Fairs and such, that helps build a clientele as well.

Keen, that's who Bella and others work for.  Actually, Lizzie's on Keen, and so is stella.
