Essential Sales basics for Artists/Creatives

This 2.5 hours ZOOM workshop is designed to equip artists with the fundamental sales techniques necessary to successfully market and sell their art. Facilitated by seasoned Business Owner and Visual Artist Marie E. Saint-Cyr, this workshop aims to empower artists to achieve financial success and sustainability in their creative careers.

By understanding and applying these essential sales basics, artists can enhance their business acumen and achieve greater financial success.

Effective pricing strategies are crucial for artists to ensure their work is valued appropriately in the market. Proper pricing not only reflects the true worth of the art but also helps in sustaining an artist's career by generating consistent revenue. 

This workshop covers vital topics such as:

  • understanding your target audience

  • setting realistic sales goals

  • crafting compelling sales pitches

  • leveraging social media for sales

  • and developing effective pricing strategies. 

As an artist who struggled to find the right balance between creating art and making a living, I learned the hard way the importance of mastering sales basics. My journey from underpricing my work to confidently closing sales has been transformative, and I want to share these valuable lessons with fellow artists to help them avoid the pitfalls I encountered.

Join this workshop and take the first step towards mastering the sales skills that will empower you to turn your passion for art into a profitable career. Start applying these strategies today and watch your art business flourish.

*Throughout this workshop, I will refer to an artist’s practice as a business because I firmly believe that all artists should approach their creative practice with a business mindset.
