In a provocative new video, Owen Garratt, a 20 year best selling artist discusses…
What’s the Best Way For Artists to Grow Their Sales – FAST?
For most artists, the single BEST way to sell and promote art is through the tried, tested and true method of…art shows!
Where else but at an art show can you:
- Meet with your fans in person
- Build rapport and establish relationships
- and most importantly, sell some art!
Where else but at an art show can you see anywhere from 100’s to 1000’s of targeted people who’re there specifically to look at art?
A good art show can put anywhere from 100’s to 1000’s to even tens of 1000’s of dollars in your pocket IF…you know what you’re doing!
Here’s the problem: 99% of artists…
Aren’t doing shows
Are doing the WRONG shows
Or are doing the wrong things at shows!
And when things don’t go well, they either think art shows don’t work, or their art’s no good!
But it might be completely unfounded!
Some problems with art shows…
-
Promoters can be more concerned with selling booth space than getting customers through the door
-
Artists have ineffective booths
-
They have no way of keeping business rolling in after the show
-
They have no idea how to engage the public
-
The show is full of artist’s friends and families…but no customers!
So how do you learn what to do?
How do you learn what to do – without putting yourself through the school of hard knocks, or wasting years re-inventing the wheel?
- How do you avoid spending time and hard earned money on shows that don’t pay off?
- How can you go from an artist who loses their shirt at a show, to being one whose mere presence at a show will boost attendance?
- What do you need to know about effective booth design?
- How do you sell…without being all salesy?
- What mistakes might you be making – without even realizing it?

"I'd never really done art shows before, but after I got The Ultimate Guide to Profitable Art Shows, I did over $15,000 in business from my very first show!
I only had two prints for sale in my booth, and I only used a small fraction of what was in the course; I can't wait to implement more!
If you're an artist, you NEED this course!"
“$197?! Egad, what makes it worth THAT much?!”
Three Points:
1) Extra-specialized knowledge and strategies that can sell more of your art than ever!
- Sales psychology
- How to attract people to your booth
- How to run special offers that encourage sales but don’t cost you money out of pocket
- Simple strategies that encourage people to engage you in conversation instead of skittering off when you say “hi”
- How to keep sales coming in after the show!
- How to bundle offers so that people buy more than one piece!
- Determining the types of shows that you should be doing (HINT: the best “art shows” aren’t always art shows!)
2) It can pay for itself tenfold by saving you from expensive blunders such as:
- buying the wrong booth
- buying the wrong lights
- buying the wrong signage
- overspending on booth space
- or attending shows that aren’t suited to your art or your clientele
- getting your pricing wrong
What would passing on ONE wrong show save you in show fees, time wasted, cost of a hotel room, and so on?
3) How many more pieces of art do you need to sell to get back what you paid for the course?
Like, one?
If you sell smaller ticket items, how much more do you need to sell at each show?
Like, a couple?
Even if you ONLY sell one more piece, you should be ahead of the game.
(and if you’re selling your art for less than that, there’s a section on pricing that you really need to see!)

QUESTION: Where else are you going to get this kind of real world experience and education?
If you’re going to get a little advice, does it make sense to get it from someone who’s never actually made their living as an artist, or get it from someone who’s been doing it for over 20 years?

This course is everything I’ve learned – we’ve held nothing back. And there’s information here that I guarantee you CAN’T get anywhere else, because I’ve included the systems, methods, and knowledge that I’ve had to create and discover myself in the School of Hard Knocks.

Sorry, but no.
Here’re the benefits of doing it digitally:
- The hard costs of producing DVDs and printed materials would add greatly to the cost of the course.
- There’d also be shipping charges…

Do you guarantee results?
It would be extremely irresponsible of us to make ANY kinds of promises as to results or income. Results and examples aren’t typical for artists, of course. We, and this should be obvious, can’t guarantee how any particular artist’s work will sell. No statement of results or income is made or implied. Individual results may vary. We love our artists, but do not take any fiduciary role on their behalf.
We provide the best advice we’re able to, based on our hard-earned knowledge and experience, but ultimately, each artist is responsible for his or her own results.
The pictures of the course show computer screens, tablets, and a phone. Are these included in the course?
I can’t believe we have to say this, but no, of course, the electronics aren’t included! The Ultimate Guide to Profitable Art Shows is a digital course, accessed on this website. The screens shows are just for graphical interest and to demonstrate ways you can access the videos.
Nice try though! 🙂
