Open an Instagram Art Shop for FREE!

How much would you love to be able to have your customers purchase right from your art page on Instagram?! And how about a free, easy to set up website that goes along with it?? Score!!

If you aren't already selling your art online then this video is a total necessity. You only need three things to get started: an Instagram business page for your artwork, an email address, and a laptop (because I think this process would be a bit tricky to do on a phone screen).

Check my brand new Instagram page and website below for a little inspo on how to set up shoppable posts and make an easy website for your artwork too. You can even get a little deeper with your website by adding 'About', 'Home' and 'Contact' pages!

Happy selling!

How to Handle Art Sales

You've sold a piece of artwork - Hoorayyy!! ....now what?

Today we'll talk about what to do for your new collector as well as how to document the sale of your original or high quality reproduction. These tips are super simple and not only will following them help you stay organized, but they may even turn those one-time buyers into repeat clients!

The Steps:

1. Celebrate!! Woo hoo! Congrats on your art sale!

2. Give your collector a Bill of Sale or Certificate of Authenticity

3. Get the collector’s email and sign them up for your newsletter (if you don’t have a monthly newsletter yet you absolutely need to check this out)

4. Get the collector’s address and contact info to write them a Thank You note

5. Organize all the sale info into a spreadsheet

6. Lowkey contact collectors about once a year
