Sell Your Art Online
Six years ago my wife Robyn and I decided to sell our crafts in the online market place. It seemed simple enough, after all we knew we had quality products to sell. We would open our site and start shipping products. It all seemed so easy. I remember when we launched our first website. How exciting! Eventually, how disappointing! The orders never came. The traffic never came and of course the money never came. Well we have learned a lot over the years and we are still learning. We have gotten a lot better in our business and we always look to learn from others so feel free to respond to our Newsletters if you feel like doing so.Hopefully you can gain some insight and tips if you are just starting or are thinking of starting your own web based business selling your own craft. First let us say that we think selling your own creations is one of the most gratifying ways to start a home based business. After all you have total control over the product. The web is filled with opportunities for home based businesses but oh man can you get scammed. Before Robyn agreed to join my team (she brings the artistic talent), I tried my hand at an online business selling products that we did not produce. I had fun with the venture but it never felt right selling products for wholesale companies. It was not my product and I had no real intimate knowledge of the products like I do now. It is nice to know that there is no one in the world that knows our products like we do. We are the authority. The same is true for everyone who makes their own craft by hand. What a great feeling.Another problem with selling for wholesale companies is drop shipping. Man I hated that. I would sell a product collect the mine, pay my wholesaler, keep my profit and NEVER see the product. I know a lot of people do that and I am not saying it is wrong but it did not feel right for me. Today when we sell a product from http://www.paintedtimber.com or http://www.gigglesart.com we take it to UPS or Fed Ex to ship ourselves because we own it. I never have to worry that someone else shipping products for MY customer. Of course we will talk about this detail as we update our newsletter.Thanks for reading our first entry. We will tell you a little about ourselves and get into some helpful tips and topics next time.Until Next Time,Greg and Robyn
Greg and Robyn are a husband and wife team that have been selling art online for years. Robyn is a masters of fine arts trained artist and Greg handles the business end of things as well as builds the painted furniture that is part of our business.
