How do the Tattoo Books Online websites like TeachMeToTattoo.com and Tattoo-Apprentice.com help a new tattoo artist like me out? Shouldn’t I get everything I need from the individual who is mentoring me? Why should I even look at the forums and the books?
Answer:
You might be perfectly fine learning from one individual, you might learn a whole lot more from that individual than you would from any of the books or websites that we have created. This is true. There is a small portion of individuals who will apprentice and leave their apprenticeship really satisfied. In a perfect world you would learn everything during your apprenticeship…
We don’t live in a perfect world, and we don’t pretend to act like people who are buying are books are always an apprentice in a real studio either. We are not going to say “we only sell to professionals” because this would create a “catch 22” and be impossible. How do you become a professional unless you apprentice, how do you apprentice if you can’t find a studio to take you? We do believe in the tattoo apprentice program - and we encourage and emphasize it.
There is a lot of information that we put out, some of it is original – other parts have been around for a long time. The difference between the books and websites we put out and the competition or other choices you have is this: Relevance, Organization, Easy to Follow, Current, Interactive, and Real.
We are relevant to your trade and your industry. We try to ensure that you become relevant as well through information sharing.
We keep our materials organized and easy to follow. These are textbooks, but they don’t read like a physics manual.
We keep our texts and websites current. We try to scour the internet for the most recent news and information so that we can get it out to you. We stay abreast of modern techniques and tools that are impacting you and your profession on a daily basis.
The materials on our websites are always interactive. We have forums and message boards, email support, video tutorials, self paced tattoo lesson plans, road maps to chart your progress, and more. The key to the concept is that there is a workflow that is tailored to the tattoo apprentice and was designed by professional educators working side by side with tattoo artists.
The data we provide is REAL! We will not tell you that we can make an amazing tattoo artist out of you in a matter of days. We will not try to pretend to know all the secrets to the tattoo industry. We will give you the real facts and some of them will surprise the heck out of you; while others will make you say: “That was it?”
