How Do You Get More People to Visit and Buy from Your Art Gallery and/or Picture Framing Business?
Ways to Transform the Footfall and Bottom-Line in Your Picture Business
The art business is a fickle one. Sometimes clients are queuing up, other times you wonder whether there’s a road block outside.
Some days buyers just stroll in, make up their minds and buy. Other days, it’s nothing but browsers, who may come back or were just killing time or sheltering from the rain.
Wouldn’t it help if you could smooth out the peaks and troughs, make the patter of buyers’ feet a regular thing?
We’re addressing art galleries and picture framers jointly here as the two businesses are often run side by side. In fact, picture framing is one way of easing the feast/famine pattern. But, how else can you create a steadier level of income?
Introducing a one-day seminar for Art Galleries and Picture Framers from Parr Excellence Business Limited.
It’s an intensive day of reviewing where your business is now and where you want it to be. At the end of the day you leave with a plan of what you’re going to do.
Two of our presenters have run a business in the art world for 10 years. They know how fickle buyers can be and how elusive they are.
They’re artists in their own right, they’ve staged exhibitions in galleries and in other venues, linked them to raising funds for charities. They’ve helped galleries set themselves up and advised existing picture framing businesses. They trained as picture framers, too, so they’re able to give you industry-specific hints and tips that help you stand out from your competitors and get you noticed by your past, present and future clients.
What's contained in the day?
- Review of what business you're really in you may be surprised!
- Where do you want to be 12 months, 3 years and 5 years from now?
