I’m with Lucy on this one. I get so caught up on painting or some other aspect, I forget about marketing. I really need to set time every single day. I’m getting better though. I finally made a point of spending at least $1 a day on facebook ads and my current series is really pushing me to get out of my comfort zone and reach out to people. That’s something I would never do before. I didn’t want to bother people. Finding a subject I feel I must share for the good of the series is much easier to do than just shoving my usual art in people’s faces.

I love this! Taking 100% responsibility is truly where it’s at. We live in a time where information is readily available to help anyone who is willing to learn and apply it.

Being consistent is challenging for me. There’s so much to do, and the “consistent marketing” is what takes the hit every time.

Photos, photos, photos! How long have I had it on my to list to learn how to take decent photos of my art and get the small amount of equipment needed to do it?

And now, after (finally) watching your Stand Out Artist videos, I’ll have to add research and buy professional hanging materials to my list as well.

Thanks for the reminders Alyson 🙂

All excellent advice. And I would add just one thing, that if you’re seeking gallery representation, make sure the venues you’re targeting are looking for new artists and show the kind of art you make. Unnecessary frustration for all otherwise!
