Do I Need A Personal Website to Sell Art? (1 of 30)

September 21st, 2009 |

Not really. You do need a web presence, which at a minimun should be a blog, and a gallery site. And I am convinced that you can get a decent gallery system going by using Imagekind or redbubble. Welcome to my 30 Day challenge to my self .

Goal: Come out of no where using free services, sell two original paintings and 5 prints in 30 days or less.

First I need to establish accounts using the following services:

Yahoo Email: _____________________________________________________

Flickr (hook to Yahoo Email): _________________________________________

Imagekind Site: ____________________________________________________

Start A Blog With a New Alias: _________________________________________

Twitter Account: __________________________________________________

Facebook: _______________________________________________________

MySpace: _______________________________________________________

Squidoo: ________________________________________________________

Paypal: _________________________________________________________

This is the check list I am starting with. I offer it to those of you who would like to try the challenge. You of course will not have to get new accounts for everything. I am gettng new accounts for everything to prove a point. When I establish my accounts, I need to fill out a planned profile. My profiles will all be linked to a well developed artist statement.

In addition to the above you should have a body of work of 30 pieces that you believe the world will want and a killer artist statement.

Good Luck, More on this latter this evening.
