Here are the things to do not to end up like Firez
>not jumping enough on trends and drawing latest releases. He draws what he likes I guess, that doesn't bring as much attention
>he posts a metric TON of sketches and WiPs. Normalfags do NOT care about that shit
>unironically not delving enough into anime style. His stylized look isn't appealing to the retarded masses of anime-watching normalfags. I'm not saying it looks bad (I don't like it personally but look at what Sakimchi does, its looks thrice as bad but it sells because it's anime) but it's just... Niche? It looks like a semi-realistic take on old Disney cartoons.

Basically he seems to orient his art towards drawfags or people who can appreciate art in general, posting WiPs and progress and spending so much time polishing his shit. That's nice, but not how you make money: by gearing your shit towards drooling masses of normalfags who only care about the finished result, seeing a pretty version of their anime waifu/husband rendered half well with a naked version available for a couple bux.
