Marketing Tips

Don’t forget to optimize your product descriptions. The descriptions of your art or photography products are critical for success. Customers want information about the artwork and the artist. The more information you provide, the more likely you are to make a sale.

Here are some things to consider including in your descriptions:

Dimensions – Tell your customers exactly what to expect when their art arrives. Use both centimeters and inches if you are appealing to an international audience. Consider offering multiple sizes to give your audience more options. Oftentimes, a lack of variety will drive customers away.

Price – If you are selling art in multiple sizes and on various mediums, be sure to create clear pricing for all variations.

Medium available – Are you only offering art on canvas, or are you providing other mediums as well? Let your customers know all of their options.

Delivery – Let them know what to expect for shipping. Use an average to meet expectations and always set the average for longer than it usually takes. If customers typically receive their order in 7 business days, tell them the average shipping is 10 to 14 business days. They will be delighted when it arrives early, and if something goes wrong, you’ve given a little extra time to make any corrections.
