Potential to make a little money--are you good at creating digital images?

**Matt** · 06-26-2009 06:31 AM

So as you guys know, I'm starting my own business.

It's called Rayne Business Solutions--I hate to clog the airways with information about it but this could turn out to be a nice partnering with someone who can create digital images.

I am offering a wide range of business solutions

Website design
bookeeping
training (customer service/first aid and cpr)
notary services
and so on...

The first one is easy except my experience is showing me that people DO want a website but they also want a logo.

So this would be simple. If you are the kind of person that could take a drawing or description and turn it into a digital image, you are the person for me.

Basically I plan to charge $50.00 for the service and would give you $30.00 of it and keep $20.00 (because I did create the relationship

). I'll send you a check!

If it turns out it's more work than $30.00 we can renegotiate something because I'm not sure it's even going to work but I'd really like to offer it as one of my services and if I can get one of our budding image folks out here some money in the process, that's great for me.

I'll send you a check for payment.

So please post in here, we can have more than one person say they want to and I will subcontract whoever I can. I'm already selling this thing really hard and I believe being able to do something like this would really add to the package.

Current folks interested:

Kidd
Jayson

There's some incredible artists on this website, but I'm pretty good at doing this type of thing. If nothing else pans out for you, Matt, let me know and I'd be more the happy to help you. If you like, check out my zazzle page. It's a lot of logo type designs and digital images. The link is in my sig.

**Matt** · 06-26-2009 06:39 AM

Thanks Kidd, that is perfect.

Monday I begin with this and my plan is to just grab whoever is available and give them the job.

One of the amazing things about this is it's a real niche around here because it's so rural so they will be very easily impressed.

So the stuff you have created will blow them AWAY!

**Kidd Ikarus** · 06-26-2009 06:47 AM

Thanks man. Just let me know and I'll do everything in my ability to give you the best quality product I can.

**jayson** · 06-26-2009 07:51 AM

Matt, feel free to contact me about any of these needs as well. I miss my graphic design job and I am always willing to do freelance projects. If I can be of any assistance to you, I'd be glad to.

**Matt** · 06-26-2009 07:55 AM

W00ty!! Thanks Jayson--that is really helpful. I would love to have several people that are willing to do it so I can always get it done.

I'll basically split the jobs one for one on everyone that signs up.

You guys are great, thank you.

**jayson** · 06-26-2009 07:58 AM

always happy to help out a friend matt.

I'm pretty good at drawing little stick men with giant penises (peni?) using MSpaint!

**Matt** · 06-26-2009 08:23 AM

Hmmmmm...

I'm sure if Matt finds a company that wants that for a logo (or one that just pisses him off) he'll be contacting you.

**ola** · 06-26-2009 09:06 AM

Hey, if you need more 'backup' people - I also do this sort of thing. My portfolio site is pretty out of date right now but I can PM you some links to graphics I made recently, plus additional contact info.

I do web design/coding too...so if you need to subcontract anyone for that too, feel free to contact me!

I'm sure you're going to get a ton of responses though. There are a lot of good designers lurking around the internet these days.

**Matt** · 06-26-2009 09:25 AM

Thanks ola, I will sure keep you in mind for work.

My web design is going to be a face to face kind of thing and people around here are scared of dealing with the internet. I'm literally going to be peddling my ass like a whore out there.

So, then...is this your company's slogan now: I'll peddle my ass like a whore for you.

**turtlex** · 06-26-2009 11:36 AM

Matt - great idea reaching out here. There are tons of folks here who I am sure would be great... both Letti and dotKay come to mind immediately.

Regardless, congrats again on your new venture!

**Matt** · 06-30-2009 02:37 PM

I am sending an email to those who were interested in trying this.

First come, first serve. But I'm sure there are going to be many more.

**Ricky** · 06-30-2009 03:07 PM

Woah Matt, I didn't know you were starting your own business. Very cool!

Depending on what kind of graphic digital images you would need, I'm sure I could help. I'd probably be more skilled in web design/coding (if that helps) so if you need that, I could assist. I'll send you some of my sites/examples, etc. if you see fit.

**Matt** · 06-30-2009 03:10 PM

Thanks man, I appreciate that.

I've got the coding down pretty well...here is my latest:

Parachute-Battlement Mesa Chamber of Commerce

but I may get overwhelmed and can subcontract some of that out.

**wizardsrainbow** · 07-01-2009 03:40 AM

Good luck with the new venture Matt! Wishing you great success.

**Matt** · 07-01-2009 04:57 AM

Thanks David, I've made a whole two weeks of my earnings so far but it's only been three days. Here's hoping the business keeps up.

**sarajean** · 07-01-2009 08:47 AM

yay!

that's so awesome, matt!

**Matt** · 07-01-2009 01:53 PM

Thanks sj

I just had a brilliant idea on how to call on merchants here in this town!

(I hate to be "in person SPAM"

)

Since I am redoing the Chamber of Commerce website, I am having to redo the business directory.

So I now have a reason to call them, let them know who I am and have them check their directory entry to make sure it looks okay

Then comes the pitch! *BAM*

**sarajean** · 07-01-2009 02:02 PM

brilliant!

seriously, matt. so proud.

**gsvec** · 07-03-2009 04:01 PM

Excellent foot in the door, Matt!

and I heard Emeril when I read "BAM"

**gsvec** · 07-03-2009 04:04 PM

and . . . ummm . . . what's with the shamwow link on the Chamber of Commerce page?

**Matt** · 07-05-2009 09:13 AM

If you get a free counter, you deal with the ad.
