5.0 out of 5 stars Best book I've ever read on marketing art
This book is different. I've read a number of books on how to sell my art on the internet and they were all fairly ambiguous on where and how to find customers and engaging them in meaningful ways. Many of the books were also monolithic in their approach for that one thing that works. But in this book, not only do you gain an appreciation for the need to have a multiple channel marketing strategy, but the authors tell you how to execute that plan in a meaningful way. It also covers many ways of gaining exposure with potential customers that I would never have thought of on my own. My impression of some books on how to sell art is that the authors were focused on filler words just to have the volume be big enough to get their title on the book's spine. But This book is written so that you can go to whatever marketing activity you wish to engage in. In a few pages, the authors tell you how to do it without need of an MBA to understand what they are trying to say. Keep this book on your desk, and reference it often if you are lost on how to effectively market art.
5.0 out of 5 stars My husband said to me, "why don't you just DIP it in yellow highligher" haha
I saw the title whilst looking for a good book on advice for artists, well, I ordered 3 books for artists, This book! stole the show for me. I couldn't put it down, I did but I read it quite fast, over a week. The advice these ladies give, tips are bar none to anyone else I've read. Way to go to these two ladies who wrote this book. Bravo!! I added the photo, I had to put what the tabs were because each chapter has something I want to apply for my art career. I highly recommend this and of course, you need to Apply What you Read in this book to make it work.I am going to be so busy but a happy busy for me. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did and I give you my word that I am going to keep this book by my side for reference for a long time.
4.0 out of 5 stars Great Content, Poor Grammar
Great book with very useful information, but way too many grammar errors to go unmentioned. Page 162 alone has 4 errors. Hard to read anything like that. Still, recommend due to valuable content.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ready to Retire and Sell my Art
My daughter appreciated the book as she is retiring soon.
5.0 out of 5 stars great books
Lots of advise! Did a quick read. Will have to read again and make notes of all the advise that speaks to me. Thank you
5.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive guide book for establishing a successful career as an artist.
A very comprehensive book about the guidance needed to raise your visibility as an artist which will result in increasing sales of your artwork. Grouped in four sections; mindsets, habits, getting artworks ready, and opportunities to get visible and implementation to artist visibility. There is also a list of further resources such as templates and artist statement and biography samples. By the end of reading this book you will know everything that is expected of you to present yourself as a professional artist and you can start raking in the big bucks the art collectors will be only too happy to throw at you (we hope).
2.0 out of 5 stars Valuable maybe, but difficult to read the too-small print
The two-star rating has nothing to do with content. It has to do with visibility--especially if you have aging eyes. The publisher creammed 75 chapters of valuable information into a 167-page paperback. I found it laborious to read because of the small print--even though I have new glasses with an updated prescription. Perhaps the e-book version would have been a better choice, but I enjoy actual books with pages so I can jot notes and doodle. I manage to navigate the thing, I'll return with a review of the content. Right now, however, I have to rest my eyes.
Good art does not sell itself
Uma leitura muito útil e interessante. Especialmente escrito para o novo artista que procura vender seu trabalho - altamente recomendado.
Practical uplifting book to inspire you to action
I had to stop myself writing a review for this book halfway through reading it - it's fabulous. Tackling mindset - appropriately as the first section - the book's format is engaging from the word go - short, digestible chapters full of absolute nuggets if you are a out there on your own and trying to break into 'the market' or a more established one-channel artist looking for some income ideas through other channels. 'Quietly' written without being pushy I loved the language and feel - and the tons of encouragement - in this book. I'm not in a position to compare to the other books out there but this will get you off to a blistering start. Second section is on 'Getting Artwork Ready' but from staying true to yourself and finding your tribe to loads of advice on getting your marketable good self out there. Section 3 deals with all the (approx 30) different methods to gain income from your art. The main message is to get visible because there's no point having all your great art sitting around if you do not take action to engage with anyone/channel to see it - assuming that's your aim. A bargain especially at the kindle price. Gold dust, for me, right at this time. Thank you.
A great overview of what to do to gain visibility for your art
I would ignore the chapter on NFTs, but everything else is relevant and timely. I am already doing many of the things this book suggests but still found more things I can be doing or thinking about.
Apparently Nobody Proofread This
The contents are useful and presented in a clear format but significant proofreading and editing is required to address errors in spelling, punctuation and grammar.
