8 Tips on how to sell art online in India<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Before we get started here are some tips to sell art online and start a successful eCommerce business.<\/p>\n

Patience pays off. Do not expect a bulk order on the first day of business. It’s important to set up first.<\/p>\n

Effective social media marketing skills and a good network will help you pave the way to selling art online<\/a>.<\/p>\n

#1 Sell your art online using social media<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Your artwork tells a story about you as a brand too. Sell it! Set up social media accounts<\/a><\/span> like Instagram, Pinterest and Facebook and upload your work.<\/p>\n

Most importantly, sell a story.<\/strong> For example, Tyler Street Art has earned itself the nickname of India’s ‘Banksy’, after a graffiti artwork caught the public’s attention (and approval).<\/p>\n

Soon, the artist took to social media to showcase all the graffiti work he does and attract attention from people. The result – over 65,000 followers!<\/strong> Tyler Street Art stands up for what art originally was meant for – revolution. What started as unique street art is now morphing into politics, and it is grabbing eyeballs!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

While Tyler’s graffiti wins hearts on Instagram, he sells merchandise on the Instamojo online store. Follow artists’ accounts on Instagram and join online communities recommended by other artists.<\/p>\n
