Class Size: 12
Workshop Description:
Working by commission is a great way to interact with your clients and get your name out to the larger public. However, as commissioning is not for everyone, we will talk about different aspects of this niche for selling your work and whether you feel it’s a good fit for you. We’ll discuss how to advertise, set rates, educate your client, create a commission schedule, draw up a contract with your client, make up invoices, handle unrealistic requests, and more. There’ll also be an opportunity to role-play using each other as artist/contractor so you can get an idea about how to discuss commissioning works with clients. Sample contracts will be available as well as other resources for you to have for future use. (Registration has ended)
