While I know our interest is to handle our art business ourselves while we create art, I’m just wondering….what percentage of the revenues do “most” artist representatives/managers/whatevertheymaybecalled take?…I suppose from net profits? Any info? (Didn’t know what to type in to search since I’m sure this topic has come up before 😉
Thanks!

Absolutely!
Since part of your oeuvre is jewelry, maybe you can connect with non jewelry artists who sell to the same audience, too.

Kate: I think you do the best you can. No one would put in their Twitter bio that they’re looking for a portrait, ya know? But you just connect to the people in the best way you can: portrait brokers, other portrait artists (hey, they might have more work than they need), etc.

Alyson,
I have done searches on Facebook and Twitter for terms like “art” and “portraits” and “interior designers.” It’s harder for me to search for patrons.

Getting me to think about this too, thank you. Would good search criteria be whatever commonality exists in one’s target market? Say, for example, they live in NYC and go to concerts or the opera? Or they live in Atlanta and visit galleries on the weekends? Or they are people with boats …?
etc.

Kate: Conduct searches on the social media sites. Have you done that?

Alyson,
The part about researching people in your niche market on facebook and twitter…I think that’s a great idea. How would you suggest going about that?
