I learned that in person sales is the way to go too. I used to put images into “their own private gallery online!” woohoo except I had small sales. Now: No images on line prior to the presentation. I present at the clients home with screen, projector. The client is aware of my price list before the session (Don’t surprise your clients with the prices…lesson learned from my very first projection session). I would say my sales have increased by 10 fold. Having the “presentation” at the clients home enable me to suggest the size and type of images that would look great on their walls. Believe me, I am not decorator but the the clients have no clue and are hungry for input. At the presentation bring BIG samples. You sell what you show. Bring a 24×30 canvas for them to see how fantastic they look and you will probably sell something pretty close to it. Deliver your product to your clients home and bring a hammer, nails, or picture hangers and help your client mount the portraits on the wall. Then stand back and admire your fantastic work and have an extremely happy client. It is a lot of work and make sure your prices ensure you are compensated adequately. Clients who want quality expect to pay for it.

Maybe you could encourage her to have an in home viewing session with you again and explain what the problem could have been?
