There are many reasons to like what the Internet can do for you. One of my favorites is the ability it provides to discover interesting people both near and far.
A good example is a news item I came across about a local art gallery owner who has just published a business of art book with wonderful career advice for fine artists.
When I saw the item, it caught my attention and prompted me to call Jason Horejs, the author. Before I called, I posted a link to and brief description about the book on Twitter and Facebook. Both mentions generated an immediate and enthusiastic response.
During our initial call, we arranged a brief meeting at Jason's impressive Xanadu Gallery in Old Town Scottsdale. There are some people who you immediately like and trust. I found Jason to be such a person.We exchanged copies of our books and made plans to catch lunch sometime soon.
Reaching out to those in your community can be invaluable
My call resulted in Jason inviting me to be a guest on his regular Art Marketing Tips webinar where I talked about the art print market. As a bonus, he offered my How to Profit from the Art Print Market book to listeners at a time-limited reduced price. In the meantime, we read each other's books. You will find, as did I, his book is chock full of great tips for visual artists. His unparalleled advice is the sort that could only come from a second-generation art entrepreneur whose gallery has generated millions in fine art sales.
