1. Open a free online shop and list airbrushed items for sale. Websites such as Storenvy, eCrater and Free Webstore let users create their own free online webstore along with access to a worldwide online marketplace where customers can purchase your goods.
2. Create a simple flier announcing your airbrushing services and your contact information. Post the flier on bulletin boards in public places such as libraries, coffee shops and bookstores.
3. Ask local auto shops if they need any airbrushing services. If not, they may allow you to post your business flier in their waiting room. If the auto shop does not offer airbrushing services to its customers, contact the owner of the shop and offer to work for him exclusively. Emphasize that the auto shop may be missing out on a lot of business by not offering custom airbrushing service.
4. Rent a booth at a flea market or shopping mall and sell airbrushed goods to shoppers. Display some of your most popular items for sale, and set up your air brushing equipment and offer custom airbrushing on the spot. Many people don't realize they're in the market for airbrushed goods until they see the items for themselves.
5. Offer your airbrushing services to tattoo shops. The shop may be interested in purchasing some of your designs and other artwork, or even hire you as an airbrush tattoo artist. Airbrush tattooing is a new way for tattoo shops to make money.
