Do you think there are too many professional readers out there (and some unprofessional readers) for anyone new to make a start as a reader?
A google search brings up so many matches, how could it be possible to stand out from the crowd?
Just wondered what your thoughts were?

Hi Lilac,
I know what you mean, but the way I look at it, is the same as my Reflexology, there are many of us out there but you need to make sure you are one of the best and offer something different to make people come back or recommend you. I am not a professional tarot reader (yet) i would like to be one day. To me Tarot is a part of your personality, every reader is different, if you use your personality and promote your work in a way that reflects this I am sure clients will come.

Step 1, go for it. Get yourself a good CD Recorder and put the readings on disc. Have faith in what you do and do it to your very best ability. ;)Lyn

hi there lilac 😀
i would say that there is room for all, all thewhile there is an interest, there will be business!
for me, i feel potential clients tend to be drawn to those readers who really 'sell themselves' very much in the way people fill in the ' why do you feel you would be good at the job ' section of a job application form. also, the more 'wares' you have on offer is a bonus too, as with feedback from satisfied people, think eBay and its feedback system 😀
as jess has mentioned, putting your own 'stamp' on your readings and promoting your cause where your personality shines through are key elements

Thanks for your replies.
I just feel that its so difficult for people to take you seriously when there are so many companies out there that really take advantage. There are some readers who advertise an hours reading for £80.00. I dont know how they can do this. While I am all for taking some kind of token for the time and energy spent in a reading, surely this cannot be justified!
How do you get people to understand your individual talents if they never find you!
