Goals for the New Year 2011

To contact me directly e-mail: meganduncanson@yahoo.com

Looking back at 2010 I realized I accomplished many things with my art that I had set out to do. I went to the Licensing Surtex show in New York and several licensing deals and potential licensee contacts were made. I secured several other licensing deals on my own as well, the main goal of 2010 achieved! I started my own Art Selling website so that I won't have to rely on other sites such as Etsy, Yessy, etc. to sell my art, which gives me much greater control over how my art is seen and found on the internet.

For 2011 I want to take the licensing side of my business even further! My goal by the end of 2011 is to have my licensing deals cover all of my monthly expenses and bills; this way I can focus more on creating new art and not so much on having to make sure I sell enough originals each month to cover my bills. I'm more than half way there so I think this is Definitely an achievable goal!

I'm also starting a new line/brand called "MAD Outfitters", I'm so excited about this and can't wait to share some of my designs with all of you! It will be geared towards the outdoorsman/outdoorswoman;, I enjoy fishing, scuba diving, boogie boarding, air-boating and many more outdoor activities that will be the inspiration for this new line of art. To give you an idea of where I'm going with this line I have a couple of simple logo t-shirts on Zazzle to start with. There will be more added with images of fish, airboats, underwater scuba diving designs and more!

I'm also feverishly working on getting my 17 year old Daughter Aroon a full-ride volleyball scholarship!! We will be doing a lot of traveling to tournaments as far away as Las Vegas and Denver in order for potential college coaches to see her play. She is already receiving interest from several top Division I schools around the country including Ohio State and Florida International University. She's worked very hard at being the best she can and doing what she loves to do, so I want to be able to help her achieve her goals as well :)

All in all it's going to be a VERY busy year, but I look forward to making it a VERY Successful and Positive year as well :) And of course the old tried and true New Year's Eve Resolution of needing to exercise more; not because I need to loose weight, but exercise gives me energy and focus so I will be running/biking/and resistance training on a more regular basis that will benefit me and my other goals for 2011.

What goals have you set for yourself in 2011?
