In one sentence, describe what the following article is about:

List your services online and leave business cards at salons that don’t have a mortuary makeup artist on staff. Making connections within the community can lead to referrals, individual freelance jobs, or a full-time position. Keep in mind that there will be more opportunities and higher-paying mortuary makeup artist jobs in highly populated areas. Contact your local funeral home director and ask if they need a makeup artist. Many funeral homes will list job postings as needed so call or check their website frequently. Ask the funeral home director if they can put you on their list of potential makeup artists. Once you find a job posting for a mortuary makeup artist, fill out an online application or ask the funeral home for a paper application. Fill out the application with your contact information, job experience, and references. You'll also have to give the director a copy of your cosmetology license and show them a portfolio of your work. If you're genuinely interested in the job, find out if the job is full-time or freelance. For example, you may be offered contracts on an individual basis. Then talk with the director about the pay and job expectations. If you're just starting out, the job may start as an on-call or contract position. Once you've built up a bigger portfolio, you might be able to negotiate your position.
Spread the word about your services among local business. Reach out to funeral homes in your area. Respond to a job posting. Discuss terms of the job.
