5 Tips to Make 2017 Your Best Art Business Year Ever
1.) If you didn’t do it in December, it’s time to get organized. Get your paperwork for 2016 taxes together, set up your calendar, organize your studio or clean up your website….Whatever end of year activity that was planned but not completed – finish it now.
2.) Prepare. Take time to fine tune your 2017 business plan. Who are the customers that you are going to reach? How are you going to spend your time. Revisit and refine your plan.
3.) Did you hit all of your goals for 2016? Figure out why or why not. If there is something you can change moving forward to get a better result – do it!
4.) Did you miss any opportunities in 2016? Get in touch with your prospective customers. Wish them a Happy New Year and ask them about the status of any projects you were discussing. Determine whether or not you can breathe new life into this old opportunity.
5.) Take a look at all of your activity from last year. What activities helped you to make sales or get closer to a goal? Identify the top two or three and do more of those activities and less of the ones that didn’t work as well.
Then, have your best year ever!
