Someone in that thread left the following comment:
""It's always about satisfying the client."
I agree with this statement. And it's how to successfully run a
business. It's my approach as well and my banker is smiling every time
I walk in the door and make a deposit.
If you run a business, re-read that statement."
I'm glad I'm an amateur.
The other way to look at it is if you're running a business, you have to
find clients who will be satisfied by the kind of product you produce.
If you want to sell photographic services free from over reliance on
Photoshop, look for clients who don't want over reliance on Photoshop.
But, it's a niche market, and perhaps a very competitive one.
