What is the best way to promote your art?
Answered by:
Great question. I run 2 businesses.
One of my businesses deals with interior design, home staging, and home organizing.
Because finding unique pieces can be rather expensive for my staging projects I have taken to creating some of my own artwork and adding it to my inventory. When staging a home for a client, I then mention ( in my contracts) that any of the pieces of what Paloma‘s dream staging and design owns is available for sale and to contact me regarding price.
I market in Facebook and also have a Facebook business page. When working with interior design clients who are looking for a unique piece, I show them some of my portfolio of work. If they love it great!
Then I price it out at that point and add it on to the services I’m also providing with them at the same time . In this way they get a great quality one-of-a-kind piece and everybody’s happy.
The most important part of marketing your work is to understand your clients & get feedback if some pieces aren’t selling. For me, if the piece doesn’t sell, I still use it for Staging inventory. Either way, it’s a win/win.
