Work more than 1-2 hours a day and get back to us. |
Very well said.
Remember that you're really working a VERY parttime job, and making pretty decent money for a parttime job. You're making probably 4x as much as someone working in the mall for that many hours.
Either accept that as is, or work more hours, and scale up. Remember though, that just because you start working twice as many hours, doesn't mean you'll make twice as much money, or 3X the hours for 3X the money. Great in theory, but not always very realistic. The first couple of thousand per month is easy in this business. It's the next few thousand per month that not everyone is able to make.
One question. Do you work Monday to Friday? If so, as a gallery submitter, that alone is a huge mistake. The biggest traffic day is Monday, so you NEED to be submitting on Sunday. If you can't work more than 5 days per week because of a medical condition or something, lose one of the other days, skip church and submit on Sunday.
Best of luck.
