Thanks in advance for the responding to this thread.
I would like to start selling prints (be it matted, framed, whatever) to/in local business.
My aim is to probably to go to the artsy towns near me; and approach gift shops, cafes, restaurants, frame/art shops, galleries, etc.
Does anyone have tips on how to do this?
Care to share your stories on how you market yourself?
Is it better to have someone act as an agent/representaive on one's own behalf (looks more professional)?
Should I walk door-to-door with matted or framed pictures?
Should I take photo albums filled with 4x6 photos to show my work?
Should I put together a large-print portfolio (if so, please describe what type of "things" I would need)?
How should I set my pricing on 4x6, 8x10 matted prints?
