For Drew and I, we were told many years ago, "Never work with your spouse..." and then another time, "Don't ever license your art..." and then another time, "Don't make prints of your art." All of these things are what helped us create success in the business of art. I'm so glad we didn't listen to this advice! How About You? Share below!

Can you believe this year is nearly over?! Drop a comment below 👇🏽 What is ONE THING you will complete before Jan 1 to move forward on your path?

Only 67 days left in this year! What is the one thing you’ll focus on with your art? 👇🏽 Share below! In that amount of time there's Halloween, Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Christmas and New Year's 😬 For my art business: ✅Determine the exact dates I’ll offer holiday sales for www.drewbrophyart.com customers and how much of a sale I’ll offer ✅Send newsletters telling buyers about the sales ✅Social media posts (on @drewbrophy Instagram and Facebook) ✅Create & release new ads for holiday art sales ✅Do one LIVE open house sale for local buyers Our SELL ART WITH EMAIL Clinic starts Wednesday and I’ll share some of my email strategies for holiday there. In 2022 for the month of November we sold $81,000 of art online! Crazy I know…I’ll tell how and why in the clinic. And I’m going to try to duplicate that this year. If you’re an ART MONEY SUCCESS Mastermind member, you get access to the clinic free. 🙌 If not, you can sign up for the clinic. I’ll share the link in the comments below.

I love this question; my wise business coach Ralph begins every session, asking me this. It forces me to look for the good, even when it was a rough week! :) They say that the feelings of gratitude bring in "good luck" or just good things in general. So the practice of NOTICING the good stuff is important, if you want to draw more good stuff to you. FOR ME: I got a deposit to hold a painting! This was a big one - it's 72" tall and 24" wide, and it's been sitting around for years. It's an awesome piece (photo below) - the collector who bought it loves to pay CASH. He's one of my favorite buyers. October has been really slow for art sales (it always is) and so selling this painting on October 30th saved the month :)

My husband Drew hates when I make him do a sale on his art prints! 😅 But…. Last year we made 50%of our holiday art sales during Black Friday sale weekend! We offered 20% off everything at www.drewbrophyart.com and we advertised it through email, Instagram and facebook. It worked so well we are doing it again this year. This time, he’s not complaining about it as much. 😂 But he’s making us change how we do it. We did a social media post and sent an email every day, putting something different on sale on different days. It was a little complicated for us, so this year we are going to simplify it. I’ll share the details after we have it all figured out…. ❓How about you? Do you plan on doing a sale at all during the holidays? Or do you not like that idea? 👇🏽 I’d love your thoughts on it!
