Internet sales: How much?

[Posav]

For the future of the Internet, possibly in the sale of works by contemporary artists. There are a collector interested in from another continent, so to speak, asked the show, send pictures. It is all done to avoid kidalovo?? Teach, help. Or to advance to accept or require advance payment 100%? And the collector stremno not seeing the original expel round sum. That's what I see the difficulty of selling through the Internet.

I do not know anyone there "stremno", but here in the Internet trade in antiques, there is already worked out a rule: the buyer sends the seller an amount equal to the agreed price + shipping price.

LCR, at artmazhure a free account, but if you want beauty, personal site with an unusual design, but a little advertising, well so here and there flashed through your pictures, all the fee. It is their business.
But they do not take commissions on sales, in contrast to ÀðòÍàó.

I think that this is true almost everywhere ... and if the fraudster wants to "throw" it will find how to do it. For example buying in Europe via the Internet, I always pay 100%+ shipping ... at no other way to get what you want to buy ... should too, and they (foreigners) buying from us .... but they are "afraid" (cunning ) want to get the goods and pay only after that. I think that foreign buyers should respect our vendors and pay an advance payment ... and if everything will work under the conditions prepay - Info, will no longer receive questions about the pattern of transaction

I was very surprised the other day. Familiar artist has mastered the computer for a year, I studied the Internet galleries and so on., Ripe - put. I sold a few works on quite a normal price! Of course, not the post-Soviet paradise, when he sold the work - a year to live, work hard for his own pleasure, but if you do not seek "in the Kings', then it is .... Wonder what else. So there are on earth are people who sit, has watched hundreds of thousands of works to choose something for myself .... and not at the price of a pair of boxes of local champagne .

I received a letter from Artmazhur -
"Hello
Since your site was sent e-card!
Ecards (electronic greeting cards) are free, they will not bring you income, but it is a sign of the popularity of your work. Distribution of your Ecards - is free advertising of your work all over the world! "

Funny. At another site, the paid service. T e if someone uses your work as a postcard (for Valentine's Day, for example), it is worth every penny the same money. Well, let, and so somebody happy ...

I met a quick note-person shares his experiences on sales in social networks. Translated via Google. Original here-

Social networking is one of the keys to the success of my creativity. I think it is important for any artist to use it, especially in the art world today.

If you're an aspiring artist, you should connect with collectors, museums, galleries, agents, etc.

Although it took me many years to achieve international recognition, I think, portals to the worlds of art with LJ, FriendFeed, Twitter, LinkedIn, Flickr helped to present my work, thousands of spectators over time. This is especially true for self-taught artists, like myself, who have little money for advertising.

Some of my success stories, two of my favorite places to acquire new customers and visitors: Facebook and Twitter.

FACEBOOK FAN PAGE
It is very important to start page for your fans and post their photos, so that clients, agencies, and more work can be viewed at once and at a convenient time for them.


Currently, my fan page has 1344 fans. Every day is added from 2 to 10 more.

My Facebook Fan Page generated a:
44 sale of paintings,
Interview - 4.

My loyal fans also provide support and comments, and I also use my fan page for the placement of special coupons, events, news, art and much more.

TWITTER
My second favorite tool. I tweet my news and new art work every day, and up to 5 to 10 times during the day so that my friends can see what I'm doing.

If you are posting on Twitter, do not forget to add a link to your art gallery, Etsy shop or personal site, so your followers can see your work in one easy step.
I have a dozen sales and two invitations to the Craft Show through Twitter.

From myself-Etsy-Starter-garbage-it's so full speed of new revenues, without paid advertising views are close to zero. A display of lots of charge!
