Re: [artshow_photo] Is there an APP for that?

Hi Robert,

If you use mailchimp for your email list management, there is an awesome
email subscription app for the ipad where people can sign up to subscribe to
your list right there in your booth. I used it in Houston and it works like
a charm - people love typing in their email on the ipad - kinda a novelty to
some.

I use numbers on the ipad to manage inventory and track sales - it is a
spreadsheet program - you can export to excel for those that use MS Office
normally.

I also use the iPad to show much more inventory than I can hang on the wall
- it is great. I have sold several thousand $ of work just by showing it on
my iPad. It has definitely paid for itself already.
