Turn Your Art Into Cash: Branding & Marketing Your Creative Product (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780988230798)

Can you actually make money with your art? Yes, if you know how to market. Yet, the majority of artists don't have a clue as to how to brand and market their art or themselves.

Many artists have bought into the theory that it takes years to become known and that there is no real money in being an artist. That doesn't have to be true for you. Nor do you need to follow in the footsteps of many of the well-known artists of the past who didn't sell any paintings during their lifetime, but now years after their passing, their paintings are worth a fortune.

You don't have to remain unknown. This easy to read handbook gives artists new insights into branding, sales principles, marketing strategies and tactics. It also delves into creating a website that sells, driving traffic to the website with social media, developing a fan base, and making it easy for people to buy so that new and emerging artists can skip that "starving artist syndrome" and go right to making sales and making a living doing what artists should be doing....creating.
