They must perfect their techniques to ensure a realistic and beautiful finish.

A faux finisher creates walls, ceilings, floors, and/or furniture painted to look like natural materials like stone and marble. Fake finishers can work in homes or commercial spaces. They can be self-employed or hired by an interior decorating company. A fake professional finisher must perfect his techniques before offering painting services to clients.

Keeping up with popular painting techniques is a main part of a faux finisher’s job. He or she must always ensure that the painting ends up looking realistic and beautiful. For example, faux cobblestone finishes should resemble real, chunky brown stones, right down to texture details and varying colors. Faux marble finishes will look quite different; the finisher must be able to apply lines of paint in cool colors to look like the expensive stone.

Fake finalists with their own businesses must advertise their business in local newspapers or other publications to get noticed by the target market. Your typical market is homeowners looking to add painted finishes to their walls or floors. A fake finisher with their own small business often has a website with photographs of client projects so potential clients can view samples of work.

Communicating with potential customers via phone or email is a task that counterfeiters companies themselves must do regularly to stay in business. Not only do they need to learn what types of finishes and paint colors are most in demand by their customers, but they can also come up with original ideas to suit each home and homeowner. If the customer wants to hire the fake finisher, an agreement is made on the payment schedule and the total amount. Fake painters need to schedule projects at times that work best for homeowners.

Many fake finishers with their own businesses have to do not just the painting, but related tasks like planning projects and buying supplies. A fake finisher may need to interview and hire assistants to help complete the client’s painting projects. Depending on whether or not they have business partners, they may need to perform administrative tasks such as payroll and tax filing. A fake professional finisher might attend workshops or craft shows as a way to meet others in the business and market their services to new customers. Some faux finishes can teach the public lessons, but many work in clients’ homes on their own or with hired help.
